A load of 1 kW takes a current of 5 A from a 230 V supply. Calculate the power factor.

Physics
1 answer:
Pachacha [2.7K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Power factor = 0.87 (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Load = 1 Kw = 1000 watt

Current (I) = 5 A

Supply (V) = 230 V

Find:

Power factor.

Computation:

Power factor = watts / (V)(I)

Power factor = 1,000 / (230)(5)

Power factor = 1,000 / (1,150)

Power factor = 0.8695

Power factor = 0.87 (Approx)

Jazz is a 172 lb athlete who exercised at 7.6 METs. At this workload, what is his energy expenditure in kcals/min.? Round to the
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

Energy expenditure in K cals/min = 10 K cals /min (approximately)

Explanation:

As we know

Energy expenditure in Kcal/min=  METs x 3.5 x Body weight (kg) / 200

Given is METs=7.6

Weight of Jazz= 172lb=78.02kg

putting the values in formula,

Energy expenditure in K cals/min=  7.6 x 3.5 x 78.02 / 200

                                                       =10.38 K cals /min

                                                       =10 K cals /min (approximately)

Therefore, Energy expenditure in K cals/min by Jazz will be approximately 10 K cals /min
