You buy a 75-W lightbulb in Europe, where electricity is delivered to homes at 240V. If you use the lightbulb in the United Stat

es at 120 V (assume its resistance does not change), how bright will it be relative to 75-W 129-V bulbs?

Answer:

The bulb will be \frac{1}{4} times as bright as it is in Europe.

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Power of bulb in Europe = 75 W

Voltage provided in Europe = 240 V

Voltage provided in United Stated = 120 V

Now,

We know,

Power = Voltage² ÷ Resistance

Therefore,

75 = 240² ÷ Resistance

or

Resistance = 240² ÷ 75

or

Resistance = 768 Ω

Therefore,

Power in United States = Voltage² ÷ Resistance

= 120² ÷ 768

= 18.75 W

Therefore,

Ratio of powers

\frac{\text{Power in united states}}{\text{Power in Europe}}=\frac{18.75}{75}

= \frac{1}{4}

Hence,

The bulb will be \frac{1}{4} times as bright as it is in Europe.

Timken rates its bearings for 3000 hours at 500 rev/min. Determine the catalog rating for a ball bearing running for 10000 hours
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

C₁₀ = 6.3 KN

Explanation:

The catalog rating of a bearing can be found by using the following formula:

C₁₀ = F [Ln/L₀n₀]^1/3

where,

C₁₀ = Catalog Rating = ?

F = Design Load = 2.75 KN

L = Design Life = 1800 rev/min

n = No. of Hours Desired = 10000 h

L₀ = Rating Life = 500 rev/min

n₀ = No. of Hours Rated = 3000 h

Therefore,

C₁₀ = [2.75 KN][(1800 rev/min)(10000 h)/(500 rev/min)(3000 h)]^1/3

C₁₀ = (2.75 KN)(2.289)

<u>C₁₀ = 6.3 KN</u>
