Answer:
Transformers are used to increase or decrease the voltage of AC currents
Explanation:
A transformer is a device consisting of two coils (called primary and secondary coil) wrapped at the two sides of a soft iron core. When an AC current is present in the primary coil, it induces a magnetic field inside the core, and the presence of this changing magnetic field induces a voltage (and a current) into the secondary coil.
The voltages in the primary and the secondary coil are related by the transformer equation:
where
Vp, Vs are the voltages in the primary and secondary coil
Np, Ns are the number of turns in the primary and secondary coil
There are two types of transformers:
- Step-up transformers: these have 
, so that 
, which means that they increase the voltage. They are used to increase the voltage of the AC current produced by the power plants, before being sent into the transmission lines.
- Step-down transformers: these have 
, so that 
, which means that they decrease the voltage. They are used at the end of the transmission lines, before the houses, in order to decrease the voltage and allow the household appliances to work properly (in fact, household appliances need lower voltages to work)
Answer:
Explanation:
Force between two charges of q₁ and q₂ at distance d is given by the expression
F = k q₁ q₂ / d₂
Here force between charge q₁ = - 15 x 10⁻⁹ C and q₃ = 47 x 10⁻⁹ C when distance between them d = (1.66 - 1.24 ) = .42 mm
k = 1/ 4π x 8.85 x 10⁻¹²
putting the values in the expression
F = 1/ 4π x 8.85 x 10⁻¹² x - 15 x 10⁻⁹ x 47 x 10⁻⁹ /( .42 x 10⁻³)²
= 9 x 10⁹ x - 15 x 10⁻⁹ x 47 x 10⁻⁹ /( .42 x 10⁻³)²
= 35969.4 x 10⁻³ N .
force between charge q₂ = 34.5 x 10⁻⁹ C and q₃ = 47 x 10⁻⁹ C when distance between them d = ( 1.24 - 0 ) = 1.24 mm .
putting the values in the expression
F = 1/ 4π x 8.85 x 10⁻¹² x 34.5 x 10⁻⁹ x 47 x 10⁻⁹ /( .42 x 10⁻³)²
= 9 x 10⁹ x - 34.5 x 10⁻⁹ x 47 x 10⁻⁹ /( .42 x 10⁻³)²
= 82729.6 x 10⁻³ N
Both these forces will act in the same direction towards the left (away from the origin towards - ve x axis)
Total force = 118699 x 10⁻³
= 118.7 N.
Answer:
The water releases energy which causes the water molecules to have less kinetic and potential energy, changing their configuration from liquid to solid.
Explanation:
The conversion of water to ice is a phase change from liquid to solid. There is no chemical action taking place in this process just the state of matter taking up a new form.
- This phase change is called freezing.
- In freezing, the liquid water loses energy to the surroundings.
- By so doing, the water molecules have lesser energy
- The then take up fixed position within the lattice.
- This changes the state to solid with a well - ordered arrangement.
Answer:
0.033 A
Explanation:
Current: This can be defined as the rate of flow of electric charge in a circuit.
The S.I unit of current is Ampere (A)
From Ohm's law.
V = IR ............................ Equation 1
Where V = Potential difference, I = current, R = resistance.
Making I the subject of the equation,
I = V/R................... Equation 2
Given: V = 52.3 V, R = 1570 Ω
Substitute into equation 2
I = 52.3/1570
I = 0.033 A.
Hence the current in the resistor = 0.033 A
