Answer:

O Transformer

Explanation:

A transformer is a device for increasing or decreasing voltage through electromagnetic induction. It is very used in power transmission where alternating currents can be stepped up or down for house hold usage.

Electromagnetic induction is the process of generating current through magnetic fields.
It is made up of primary and secondary coils which helps to change voltage in the presence of magnetic filed at the core.
A transformer can either be a step up or step down device.

A catamaran with a mass of 5.44×10^3 kg is moving at 12 knots. How much work is required to increase the speed to 16 knots? (One

Andre45 [30]

The work that is required to increase the speed to 16 knots is 14,176.47 Joules

If a catamaran with a mass of 5.44×10^3 kg is moving at 12 knots, hence;

5.44×10^3 kg = 12 knots

For an increased speed to 16knots, we will have:

x = 16knots

Divide both expressions

$\frac{5.44 \times 10^3}{x} = \frac{12}{16}\\12x = 16 \times 5.44 \times 10^3\\x = 7.23\times 10^3kg\\$

To get the required work done, we will divide the mass by the speed of one knot to have:

$w=\frac{7230}{0.51}\\w= 14,176.47Joules$

Hence the work that is required to increase the speed to 16 knots is 14,176.47 Joules
