An L-R-C series circuit, R = 160 Ω , L = 0.790 H , and C = 1.30×10−2 μF . The source has a voltage amplitude of 140 V and a freq

uency equal to the resonance frequency of the circuit. A)What is the power factor? B)What is the average power delivered by the source? Express your answer using two significant figures. C) The capacitor is replaced by one with a capacitance of C=3.20×10−2 μF and the source frequency is adjusted to the new resonance value. Then what is the average power delivered by the source? Express your answer using two significant figures.

Answer: a) 1 b) 61 W c) 61 W

Explanation:

a) The  Power Factor (also known as cos φ), is defined by the difference in phase between current and voltage, in a RLC series circuit, and is expressed as follows:

cos φ = R / Z = R / \sqrt{(R)^{2} + (Xl -Xc)^{2} }

In resonance, XL =XC, so the circuit behaves like it were purely resistive, so Z=R.

Replacing in the expression for power factor, we have:

cos φ = R/Z = R/R = 1

This means that in resonance, current and voltage are in phase each other.

b) The average power delivered by the source, in resonance, is simply the power dissipated at the resistance R, as follows:

Pavg = V² rms / R = V₀² / √2 / R = 61 W

c) If the circuit remains in resonance, the average power , which does not depends on frequency provided this condition remains, keeps the same, i.e. , 61 W.

Johnson made a hole at the bottom of a plastic bottle containing water. However, he noticed that the water did not flow out from
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

  • a) See explanation below

  • b) At X.

Explanation:

Please, see the picture attached with the image of the plastic bottle for this question.

<u>(a) Explain why the water could not flow out of the bottle.</u>

What makes the water flow out of the botlle is the force of gravity, whic attracts the water towards the Earth.

When Johnson made a small hole at the bottom of the plastic bottle containing water, the air outside the bottle, which surrounds it and exerts a pressure all over the outer walls of the bottle, exerted a force against the small area of water "over" the hole that is in contact with the air.

Thus, this force of the air pushing upward through the wall opposed the force of gravity pulling downward making the net force zero and the water cannot fall.

<u>(b) To make the water flow out more easily, his teacher suggested making another hole. At which position - X, Y or Z, should he make the 2nd hole in order for the water to flow out the fastest?</u>

You must open the hole at a place where there is not water but air, such that the outer air can enter in the bottle.

That will make that the pressure in the space over the water inside the bottle be equal to the pressure outside.

The pressure of the air above the water will push it downward. Now, the force from the pressure of air inside the water, which is downward, opposes the upward force from the pressure of air around the first hole, and the net force will be downward, making the water flow out more easily.

Thus, the position where he should make the second hole in order for the water to flow fastest is at X.

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

Wavelength

Explanation:

Wavelength is the distance between two corresponding consecutive phases of a waveform. It is usually represented by λ in the mathematical expressions.

A continuous propagating wave repeats its wavelength over the distance.

A wave has crest and trough with respect to time and space.

Wave is defined as a disturbance of any parameter repeated in a cyclic manner over the given time.

Leni [432]

Answer:

The length of line is 78 cm or 0.78 m.

Explanation:

initial reading 2 mark

final reading 80 cm

The length of the line

= final reading - initial reading

= 80 - 2

= 78 cm

1 cm = 0.01  m

So, 78 cm = 0.78 m
