You’re an electrical engineer designing an alternator (the generator that charges a car’s battery). Mechanical engineers specify

a 10-cm-diameter rotating coil, and you determine that you can fit 250 turns in this coil. To charge a 12-V battery, you need a peak output of 14 V when the alternator is rotating at 1200 rpm. What do you specify for the alternator’s magnetic field? Wolfson, Richard. Essential University Physics, Volume 2 (p. 542). Pearson Education. Kindle Edition.

Answer:

I will specify a value of 0.009T for the alternator’s magnetic field

Explanation:

E_peak = 14 V

d = 10cm = 0.1m, so r = 0.1/2 =0.05m

N = 250 turns

f = 1200rpm = (1200rp/m x 1m/60sec) = 20 revolutions per second

At peak performance, peak voltage is given by the equation;

E_peak = NABω

Let's make the magnetic field B the subject;

B = E_peak/(NAω)

Now we know that ω = 2πf

Thus, ω = 2π x 20 revs/s = 125.664 revs/s.

Let's convert it to the standard unit which is rad/s.

1 rev/s = 6.283 rad/s

Thus, 125.664 revs/s = 125.664 x 6.283 = 789.55 rad/s

Area (A) = πr² = π x 0.05² = 0.007854 m²

Thus, plugging in the relevant values to get;

B = 14/[(250 x 0.007854 x 789.55)] = 0.009T

What are the factor that affect the efficiency of a pulley​
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

Tension in the chains - In a chain drive, technically, you have a closed-chain (which has no end) going around 2 pulley or gears; looking closely you have 2 parallel chains going in opposite direction. If kept in horizontal direction, the one below the other is the slack side and the other the tight side. The tension on the upper or tight side is more than the slack side. So you need to keep in mind to keep your chain drive tight so that there is no loss or rotation or lags.

Sizes of the pulley/gear - The chain will be warped around a pair of pulley or gear. The sizes of these pulley/gear will also determine the efficiency of the chain drive (consider one big and one small)

Number of pulley/gear - If the number of pulley/gear is more and chain wrapped on it with little complexity will result in decrease in efficiency because of extra tension.

Length of the chain drive - You cannot have much too long chain drive. It will make your slack side more heavy because the end are further away. You have to apply more power and possibilities of lag increases decreasing efficiency. In an ideal situation, this won't happen, but this world isn't ideal.

Friction between chains & pulley/gear - If you have studied gears (involving its teeth), you will come to know that there is friction offered on the two meeting surfaces.

Angle of contact - This would have been explained better with a diagram. Although, if you are familiar with the terms you won't have difficulty understanding. Angle of contact is the angle the chain forms with the pulley/gear at the point of contact with the center of the pulley. The angle of contact should not be too small, or else the things will be slippery.

Olegator [25]

Answer:

42244138.951 m

Explanation:

G = Gravitational constant = 6.667 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

r = Radius of orbit from center of earth

M = Mass of Earth = 5.98 × 10²⁴ kg

m = Mass of Satellite

The satellite revolves around the Earth at a constant speed

Speed = Distance / Time

The distance is the perimeter of the orbit

v=\frac{2\pi \times r}{24\times 3600}

The Centripetal force of the satellite is balanced by the universal gravitational force

m\frac{v^2}{r}=\frac{GMm}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{\left(\frac{2\pi \times r}{24\times 3600}\right)^2}{r}=\frac{6.667\times 10^{-11}\times 5.98\times 10^{24}}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow \left(\frac{2\pi \times r}{24\times 3600}\right)^2=6.667\times 10^{-11}\times 5.98\times 10^{24}\\\Rightarrow r^3=\frac{6.667\times 10^{-11}\times 5.98\times 10^{24}\times (24\times 3600)^2}{(2\pi)^2}\\\Rightarrow r=\left(\frac{6.667\times 10^{-11}\times 5.98\times 10^{24}\times (24\times 3600)^2}{(2\pi)^2}\right)^{\frac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow r=42244138.951\ m

The radius as measured from the center of the Earth) of the orbit of a geosynchronous satellite that circles the earth is 42244138.951 m

e-lub [12.9K]
The correct is  Reverberation. A reverberation is created when a sound or signal is reflected causing a large number of reflections to build up and then decay as the sound is absorbed by the surfaces of objects in the space – which could include furniture, people, and air.
