In electricity distribution, why is low voltage safer for consumers?​

Physics
1 answer:
RUDIKE [14]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

The transmission lines contain about 2500 volts. It is dangerous enough to get zapped by 120 volts. Think what 20 times that much would do to you.

If an object is placed at distance of 16cm from a plane mirror, How far would it be from it's image?​
Lelechka [254]

Explanation:

A plane mirror always creates an image with the same distance to the mirror as the object, only in the other direction. So both of them have a distance of 10cm, one is 10cm to the left, one 10cm to the right, thus their mutual distance is 20cm

Two large, parallel, conducting plates are 1.00 cm apart and having electric charges of equal magnitudes (80.0 nC/m^2) and oppos
boyakko [2]

(a) 9040 V/m

The magnitude of the electric field between two parallel, oppositely charged plates is given by

E=\frac{\sigma}{\epsilon_0}

where

\sigma is the charge surface density on each plate

\epsilon_0 = 8.85\cdot 10^{-12} is the vacuum permittivity

In this problem, the magnitude of the charge density on each plate is

\sigma = 80.0 nC/m^2 = 80.0\cdot 10^{-9} C/m^2

Substituting into the formula, we find the magnitude of the electric field:

E=\frac{80.0\cdot 10^{-9}}{8.85\cdot 10^{-12}}=9040 V/m

(b) 90.4 V

The electric potential difference between the two plates is given by

\Delta V=Ed

where

E is the magnitude of the electric field

d is the separation between the two plates

In  this problem, we have

E = 9040 V/m

d = 1.00 cm = 0.01 m

Substituting into the formula, we find

\Delta V=(9040)(0.01)=90.4 V

A 72-kg man stands on a spring scale in an elevator. Starting from rest, the elevator ascends, attaining its maximum speed of 1.
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

During the first .8 s , the elevator is under acceleration . It starts from initial velocity u = 0 , final velocity v = 1.2 m /s , time = .8 s

v = u + at

1.2 = 0 +  .8 a

a = 1.2 / .8

= 1.5 m /s²

During the acceleration in upward direction , let reaction force of ground on man be R .

Net force on man = R - mg

Applying Newton's 2 nd law

R - mg = ma

R = m ( g + a )

= 72 ( 9.8 + 1.5 )

= 813.6 N .

This reaction force will be measured by spring scale , so reading of spring scale will be 813.6 N .

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

Montesquieu called the idea of dividing government power into three branches the "separation of powers." He thought it most important to create separate branches of government with equal but different powers. That way, the government would avoid placing too much power with one individual or group of individuals.
