Answer:

a  average load current = 11.33 A

b rms load current = 8.02A

c true power =962.64 W

d apparent power =962.64 W

e. power factor cosθ =1

Explanation:

Vs (t) = 170 sin(377t) v

Vm =170v

Vrms = 170/√2 =120.23 v

Im = Vm/R = 170/15 = 11.33 A

Irms = Im/ √2 = 11.33/√2 =8.02A

Resistors are electronic components that consume energy

the power in a resistor is given by  P =IVcosθ ; in a resistor cosθ =1

P =IV

The electrical power consumed by a resistance, (R) is called the true or real power

and is obtained by multiplying the rms voltage with the rms current.

P= Vrms × Irms

120.03×8.02

P= 962.64 W ; true power

apparent power = Vrms × Irms

=120.03×8.02

= 962.64W ; apparent power

power factor cosθ = true power/ apparent power

cosθ = 962.64/962.64

cosθ = 1

For the purely resistive circuit, the power factor is 1 , because the reactive power is equal to zero (0).

Answer:

The instantaneous voltage (V_{s}) across the half-wave rectifier is given by

V_{s}(t) = V_{m}cos(wt + θ) V    ------------ (i)

Where V_{m} is the peak voltage and Θ is the phase angle.

Given:

V_{s}(t) = 170sin(377t) V    -------------------------(ii)

Load Resistance R = 15Ω

Comparing equations (i) and (ii)

V_{m} = 170V

(a) Average load current I_{0} = \frac{V_{0}}{R} = \frac{V_{m} }{\pi R}

Taking pi as 22/7 and substituting the values of R and V_{m} into the above equation, we have;

I_{0} = \frac{170}{\pi * 15} = 3.6A

(b) The rms load current I_{rms} = \frac{V_{m}}{2R}

Substituting the values of R and V_{m} into the equation above gives;

I_{rms} = \frac{170}{2 * 15} = 5.67A

(c). Power absorbed by the load is given by the ac and the dc.

Dc Power absorbed = \frac{V_{m} ^{2} }{\pi^{2} * R } = \frac{170^{2} }{\pi ^{2} * 15} = 195W

Ac Power absorbed = \frac{V_{rms} ^{2} }{R}

where V_{rms} = \frac{V_{m} }{2} = \frac{170}{2} = 85V

Therefore, Ac Power absorbed = \frac{85^{2} }{15} = 481.67W

(d) Apparent Power is the product of the rms values of the current and the voltage.

Apparent Power = I_{rms} * V_{rms}

Apparent Power = 5.67 * 85 = 481.95W

(e) Power factor is the ratio of the Power absorbed by load to the Apparent Power

Therefore Power factor = \frac{Power  absorbed}{Apparent Power}

Power factor = \frac{481.67}{481.95} = 0.999

PS: Power absorbed could also be called the real power

0.16 mol of argon gas is admitted to an evacuated 70 cm^3 container at 30°C. The gas then undergoes an isothermal expansion to a
Semmy [17]

Answer:

The final pressure of the gas is 9.94 atm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of argon = 0.16 mol

Initial volume = 70 cm³

Angle = 30°C

Final volume = 400 cm³

We need to calculate the initial pressure of gas

Using equation of ideal gas

PV=nRT

P_{i}=\dfrac{nRT}{V}

Where, P = pressure

R = gas constant

T = temperature

Put the value in the equation

P_{i}=\dfrac{0.16\times8.314\times(30+273)}{70\times10^{-6}}

P_{i}=5.75\times10^{6}\ Pa

P_{i}=56.827\ atm

We need to calculate the final temperature

Using relation pressure and volume

P_{2}=\dfrac{P_{1}V_{1}}{V_{2}}

P_{2}=\dfrac{56.827\times70}{400}

P_{2}=9.94\ atm

Hence, The final pressure of the gas is 9.94 atm.

A woman pushes an oak chest across an oak floor at a constant speed of 0.450 m/s. The chest has a mass of 40.0 kg, and the coeff
natima [27]

Answer:

A. 243 N

Explanation:

Friction is the force that opposes the relative motion between systems that are in contact.

This friction force that opposes the motion of the oak chest across the oak surface will be equal and opposite to that exerted by the woman.

First find the normal force which is the force that would point directly upwards to support weight of the block.

Normal force, N= mg where m is the mass of the chest and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

Given m=40 kg and g=9.80 m/s²

N force=40×9.80 =392N

Then find the force of friction which is given by the formula;

<em>F=μN where μ is friction coefficient for the  oak chest  and N is the normal force on the chest</em>

Given <em>μ</em>=0.620  and N force = 392 N then it will be;

F=0.620× 392 =243.04 N

Answer : 243 N

An engine with an electronic fuel injection system has high fuel pressure at idle. This could be caused by a:
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

An engine with an electronic fuel injection system has high fuel pressure at idle because of  high manifold vacuum. (option D)

Explanation:

Electronic fuel injection (EFI) system replaced carburetors back in the mid-1980s as the preferred method of supplying air and fuel to engines. The basic difference is that a carburetor uses intake vacuum and a pressure drop in the venturi, to siphon fuel from the carburetor fuel bowl into the engine. Whereas fuel injection system uses pressure to spray fuel directly into the engine.

However, under light load or at idle, a relatively high vacuum exists in the intake manifold. This means less fuel pressure is needed to spray a given volume of fuel through the injector. Under heavy load, engine vacuum drops to near zero.

Therefore, An engine with an electronic fuel injection system has high fuel pressure at idle because of  high manifold vacuum.
