A power plant produces 1000 MW to suply a city 40Km away.Current flows from the power plant on a single wire of resistance0.050

Ω/Km, through the city, and returns via the ground,assumed to have negligible resistance. At the power plant thevoltage between the wire and the ground is 115kV. a) What is thecurrent in the wire?. b) What fraction of the power is lostin transmission?

Answer:

The current in wire resistance 2Ω

a). 8696 A

b). fraction power 15.1% a 115kV

Explanation:

Resistance

R=0.05Ω/Km*40km

R=2Ω

P=1000 MW

a).

P=V*I\\I=\frac{P}{V}=\frac{1000x10^{6}W}{115x10^{3}k }  =8696.65A

Using law ohm

b).

V=I*R\\I=\frac{V}{R}

P=I*I*R\\P=I^{2} *R\\P=8696.65^{2}*2\\P=151.228 x10^{6}  W

e=\frac{151.228x10^{6} }{1000x10^{6} }*100= 15.12%

What amount of energy is needed for an electron to jump from n = 1 to n = 4?
liberstina [14]

Answer:

E=2.04\times 10^{-18}\ J

Explanation:

We need to find the energy for an electron to jump from n = 1 to n = 4.

The energy in transition from 1 state to another is given by :

E=\dfrac{-2.18\times 10^{-18}}{n^2}\ J

The difference in energy for n = 1 to n = 4 is:

E=-2.18\times 10^{-18}\times (\dfrac{1}{4^2}-1)\\\\E=2.04\times 10^{-18}\ J

So, the required energy is equal to 2.04\times 10^{-18}\ J.

Heat transfer by radiation depends on ____​
notsponge [240]

Answer:

Infrared

Explanation:

This is the electromagnetic spectrum just above the visible light spectrum with higher energy (and higher frequency). This electromagnetic radiation is responsible for feeling the heat when you place your hand close to the side of a fire. It is also harnessed in night vision where bodies that emit some form of heat are visible due to their emission of IR.

Two identical loudspeakers are driven in phase by a common oscillator at 750 Hz and face each other at a distance of 1.24 m. Loc
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

0.2286  m,  0.686 m and  1,143 m

therefore we see that there is respect even where the intensity is minimal

Explanation:

Destructive interference to the two speakers is described by the expression

       Δr = (2n +1) λ/2

where r is the distance,  λ the wavelength and n an integer indicating the order of the interference

let's locate the origin on the left speaker

let's find the wavelength with the equation

        v =  λ f

         λ = v / f

we substitute

      Δr = (2n + 1) v / 2f

let's calculate for difference values ​​of n

     Δr = (2n +1) 343/(2 750)

     Δr = (2n + 1) 0.2286

we locate the different values ​​for a minimum of interim

    n     Δr (m)

     0    0.2286

     1     0.686

     2    1,143

therefore we see that there is respect even where the intensity is minimal
