An ac generator with peak voltage 100 volts is placed across a 10-? resistor. What is the average power dissipated?

1 answer:

3 0

The correct answer is: Average Power = 500 W

Explanation:
Root-mean square voltage = Vrms = Vpeak /√2 = 100 / √2 volts
Resistance = R = 10 Ω
Average power = Pavg = (Vrms)^2<span> / R </span>= (100 * 100) / (2 * 10) = <span>500 W</span>

Driving along a boring stretch of interstate in Illinois, you start experimenting using the average speed equation you learned i

astra-53 [7]

The average speed would be 33.29m/s.
The average speed equation is:

$Average speed = \frac{total distance}{total time}$

First you will need to solve for the distance you traveled in each scenario. So we can solve this by getting the product of speed and the time traveled.

Scenario 1:
Speed = 29m/s
Time = 120s
Distance = ?

Distance = (29m/s)(120s)
= 3,480m

Scenario 2
Speed = 35m/s
Time = 300s
Distance = ?

Distance = (35m/s)(300s)
= 10,500m

Now that you have the distance of both, you can solve for your average speed.

$Average speed = \frac{total distance}{total time}$
$= \frac{3,480m+10,500m}{120s+300s}$
$= \frac{13,980m}{420s}$
$= 33.29m/s$

What are three foods that would be considered good energy sources?

jok3333 [9.3K]

Almonds, like many nuts, are one of the best plant sources of protein. Protein will help regulate your blood sugar and keep your energy level stable throughout the day. Oats contain the energizing and stress-lowering B vitamin family, which helps transform carbs into usable energy. Water, without water, your body cannot generate energy.

A speeder passes a parked police car at a constant speed of 23.3 m/s. At that instant, the police car starts from rest with a un

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

t = 16.94 s

Explanation:

t is the time passes before police catch the speeder

speed of speeder Vo = V = 23.3 m/s

T = t

Police Info

Vo = 0 m/s

a = 2.75 m/s^2

t = t

Now,

displacement of the police car = displacement of the speeder.

x_{police} = Vo *t + 1/2 at^2

since Vo = 0

x police = 1/2 at^2

x police = 1/2 (2.75)(t)^2

Now the displacement of speeder is

x_{speeder} = Vt

x_{speeder} = 23.3 t

x_{speeder} = x_{police}

23.3 t = 1/2 * 2.75 t^2

23.3 t = 1.375 t^2

t = 23.3\1.375

t = 16.94

t = 16.94 s
