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%

7.22 Ignoring reflection at the air–water boundary, if the amplitude of a 1 GHz incident wave in air is 20 V/m at the water surf
Serga [27]

Answer:

z = 0.8 (approx)

Explanation:

given,

Amplitude of 1 GHz incident wave in air = 20 V/m

Water has,

μr = 1

at 1 GHz, r = 80 and σ = 1 S/m.

depth of water when amplitude is down to  1 μV/m

Intrinsic impedance of air = 120 π  Ω

Intrinsic impedance of  water = \dfrac{120\pi}{\epsilon_r}

Using equation to solve the problem

  E(z) = E_0 e^{-\alpha\ z}

E(z) is the amplitude under water at z depth

E_o is the amplitude of wave on the surface of water

z is the depth under water

\alpha = \dfrac{\sigma}{2}\sqrt{\dfrac{(120\pi)^2}{\Epsilon_r}}

\alpha = \dfrac{1}{2}\sqrt{\dfrac{(120\pi)^2}{80}}

\alpha =21.07\ Np/m

now ,

  1 \times 10^{-6} = 20 e^{-21.07\times z}

  e^{21.07\times z}= 20\times 10^{6}

taking ln both side

21.07 x z = 16.81

z = 0.797

z = 0.8 (approx)

Estimate the power you produce in running up a flight of stairs. Give your answer in horsepower (1 hp = 746 W). Suppose you clim
GarryVolchara [31]
The first thing you should do is calculate the work done when climbing the stairs. This work by definition will be given by:
 W = F * d
 W = (m * g) * (d)
 W = ((71) * (9.8)) * (3) = 2087.4J
 Then, you can calculate the power that in this case is given by
 P = W / t
 P = (2087.4) / (10) = 208.74W
 To have the result in HP we use the fact that 1HP = 746W
 P = (208.74) / (746)
 P = 0.28 HP
 answer
 the power you produce in running up a flight of stairs is 0.28 HP

Compare the physical sciences to the life sciences.
Elden [556K]

1.Life science involves fields of discipline catering to living organisms such as we humans while physical science caters to non-living organisms.

2.Life science has more fields of discipline than physical science.

3.Physical science relies on laws and theories to explain concepts while life science relies on biological explanations and can also rely on theories.
