<span>The screw is really just an inclined plane covered around with a tiny pole. The wedge is definitely an inclined plane, since it starts with a point, then rises getting thicker, as an inclined plane. </span>

What is the electrical consumption in KVA of a motor powered by a 3-phase, 60 Hz, 460 VAC supply that continuously draws 17 A
MrRa [10]

Answer:

15.34 kVA

Explanation:

A motor is a device that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. It takes in electrical energy at the input and produce torque (motion) at the output.

The power consumption for a three phase motor is the product of voltage and current and √3. The √3 is because it is a three phase supply.

Hence Power (P) =√3 × voltage (V) × current (I)

P = √3 × V × I

Given that voltage (V) = 460 V, current (I) = 17 A. Hence:

P = √3 × V × I = √3 × 460 × 17 = 13544.64 VA

But 1000 VA = 1 kVA. Hence:

P=13544.64\ VA*\frac{1\ kVA}{1000\ VA}=13.54\ kVA

amm1812

Answer:

The inner planets are closer to the Sun and are smaller and rockier. The outer planets are further away, larger and made up mostly of gas. The inner planets (in order of distance from the sun, closest to furthest) are Mercury, Venus , Earth and Mars.

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

1.5 * 10^-2 Tm^2

Explanation:

Electric Flux = B.A cos(theta)

B = 0.055 T

A = 0.32 m^2

theta = 30

Electric Flux = (0.055 T).(0.32 m^2).Cos(30) = 0.0152 = 1.5 * 10^-2 Tm^2

How long does it take (in minutes) for light to reach venus from the sun, a distance of 1.152 × 108 km?
7nadin3 [17]
Using the precise speed of light in a vacuum (299,792,458 \ \frac{m}{s}), and your given distance of 1.152 * 10^{8} km, we can convert and cancel units to find the answer. The distance in m, using \frac{1000 \ m}{1 \ km}, is 1.152 * 10^{11} m. Next, for the speed of light, we convert from s to min, using \frac{1 \ min}{60 \ s}, so we divide the speed of light by 60. Finally, dividing the distance between the Sun and Venus by the speed of light in km per min, we find that it is 6.405 min.
