Ask Your Teacher An electric utility company supplies a customer's house from the main power lines (120 V) with two copper wires

, each of which is 34.0 m long and has a resistance of 0.109 Ω per 300 m. (a) Find the potential difference at the customer's house for a load current of 116 A.

Answer:

The potential difference at the customer's house is 117.1 V.

Explanation:

a) The potential difference at the customer's house can be calculated as follows:

\Delta V_{h} = \Delta V_{p} - \Delta V_{l}

<u>Where</u>:

V_{h}: is the potential difference at the customer's house

V_{p}: is the potential difference from the main power lines = 120 V

V_{l}: is the potential difference from the lines

\Delta V_{h} = \Delta V_{p} - IR

The resistance, R, is:

\frac{0.109 \Omega}{300 m}*2*34.0 m = 0.025 \Omega

Now, the potential difference at the customer's house is:

\Delta V_{h} = 120 V - 116A*0.025 \Omega = 117.1 V

Therefore, the potential difference at the customer's house is 117.1 V.

I hope it helps you!

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

16.25^{\circ}

Explanation:

R = Horizontal range of projectile = 75 m

v = Velocity of projectile = 37 m/s

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81\ \text{m/s}^2

Horizontal range is given by

R=\dfrac{v^2\sin2\theta}{g}\\\Rightarrow \theta=\dfrac{\sin^{-1}\dfrac{Rg}{v^2}}{2}\\\Rightarrow \theta=\dfrac{\sin^{-1}\dfrac{75\times 9.81}{37^2}}{2}\\\Rightarrow \theta=16.25^{\circ}

The angle at which the arrow is to be released is 16.25^{\circ}.
