Answer:

B. Transformer

Explanation:

A transformer is a device that is used to either raise or lower voltages and currents in an electrical circuit. In modern electrical distribution systems, transformers are used to boost voltage levels so as to decrease line losses during transmission. It basically trades voltage for current in a circuit, while not affecting the total electrical power. This means it takes high-voltage electricity with a small current and changes it into low-voltage electricity with a large current, or vice versa.

Anarel [89]

Answer:

weight of sealed tube that is filled with iodine gas is 27 gm

Explanation:

As tube is closed therefore mole of gas is enclosed in a tube, thus it will only converted into gas ( Iodine Gas). In the gas form it will going to exert pressure on the wall of a tube. From conservation of mass principle weight of tube remain same, there will be no change in the weight of gas. therefore weight of sealed tube that is filled with iodine gas is 27 gm

An archer defending a castle is on an 15.5 m high wall. He shoots an arrow straight down at 22.8 m/s. How much time does it take
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

  about 602 milliseconds

Explanation:

The motion can be approximated by the equation ...

  y = -4.9t^2 -22.8t +15.5

where t is the time since the arrow was released, and y is the distance above the ground.

When y=0, the arrow has hit the ground.

Using the quadratic formula, we find ...

  t = (-(-22.8) ± √((-22.8)^2 -4(-4.9)(15.5)))/(2(-4.9))

  = (22.8 ± √823.64)/(-9.8)

The positive solution is ...

  t ≈ 0.60195193

It takes about 602 milliseconds for the arrow to reach the ground.
