Answer:primary current is 3A

Explanation:

primary voltage Vp=240V

secondary voltage Vs=60V

resistance 5Ω

primary current in the circuit is

I_{P} =I_{S} \frac{V_{S}}{V_{P}}\\I_{P} =\frac{V_{S}}{R}  \frac{V_{S}}{V_{P}}\\I_{P}=\frac{60\times 60}{5\times 240\\}\\I_{P}=3 A

Kinematics
leonid [27]

Answer:

a)

a = 2 [m/s^2]

b)

a = 1.6 [m/s^2]

c)

xt = 2100 [m]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we must use kinematics equations. But first we must identify what kind of movement is being studied.

a)

When the car moves from rest to 40 [m/s] by 20 [s], it has a uniformly accelerated movement, in this way we can calculate the acceleration by means of the following equation:

v_{f} = v_{i}+(a*t)

where:

Vf = final velocity = 40 [m/s]

Vi = initial velocity = 0 (starting from rest)

a = acceleration [m/s^2]

t = time = 20 [s]

40 = 0 + (a*20)

a = 2 [m/s^2]

The distance can be calculates as follows:

v_{f} ^{2} =  v_{i} ^{2}+(2*a*x)

where:

x1 = distance [m]

40^2 = 0 + (2*2*x1)

x1 = 400 [m]

Now the car maintains its speed of 40 [m/s] for 30 seconds, we must calculate the distance x2 by means of the following equation, it is important to emphasize that this movement is at a constant speed.

v = x2/t2

where:

x2 = distance [m]

t2 = 30 [s]

x2 = 40*30

x2 = 1200 [m]

b)

Immediately after a change of speed occurs, such that the previous final speed becomes the initial speed, the new Final speed corresponds to zero, since the car stops completely.

v_{f} = v_{i}-a*t

Note: the negative sign of the equation means that the car is stopping, i.e. slowing down.

0 = 40 - (a *25)

a = 40/25

a = 1.6 [m/s^2]

The distance can be calculates as follows:

v_{f} ^{2}  = v_{i} ^{2} -2*a*x3\\

0 = (40^2) - (2*1.6*x3)

x3 = 500 [m]

c)

Now we sum all the distances calculated:

xt = x1 + x2 + x3

xt = 400 + 1200 + 500

xt = 2100 [m]

A 1300 kg car traveling with a speed of 3.5 m/s executes a turn with a 8.5 m radius of curvature.
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

1.4 m/s/s (2.s.f)

Explanation:

The formula for centripetal acceleration is:

a=\frac{v^{2} }{r}, where v is velocity and r is the radius.

In the question we are given the information that the car has a mass of 1300kg, a velocity of 2.5m/s, and a turn radius of 8.5m which are all the values we need. Therefore we can simply substitute in the values to solve the question:

a=\frac{3.5^{2} }{8.5} \\a=1.4

Therefore the centripetal acceleration of the car is 1.4m/s/s. (2.s.f)

Hope this helped!

In a physics laboratory experiment, a coil with 200 turns enclosing an area of 13.1 cm2 is rotated during the time interval 3.10
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

A)\Phi=83.84\times 10^{-9}

B)\Phi=0 Wb

C)emf=5.4090\times 10^{-4}V

Explanation:

Given that:

  • no. of turns i the coil, n=200
  • area of the coil, a=13.1 \times 10^{-4}\,m^2
  • time interval of rotation, t=3.1\times 10^{-2}\,s
  • intensity of magnetic field, B=6.4\times 10^{-5}\,T

(A)

Initially the coil area is perpendicular to the magnetic field.

So, magnetic flux is given as:

\Phi=B.a\,cos \theta..................................(1)

\theta is the angle between the area vector and the magnetic field lines. Area vector is always perpendicular to the area given. In this case area vector is parallel to the magnetic field.

\Phi=6.4\times 10^{-5}\times 13.1 \times 10^{-4}\, cos 0^{\circ}

\Phi=83.84\times 10^{-9} Wb

(B)

In this case the plane area is parallel to the magnetic field i.e. the area vector is perpendicular to the magnetic field.

∴  \theta=90^{\circ}

From eq. (1)

\Phi=6.4\times 10^{-5}\times 13.1 \times 10^{-4}\, cos 90^{\circ}

\Phi=0 Wb

(C)

According to the Faraday's Law we have:

emf=n\frac{B.a}{t}

emf=\frac{200\times 6.4\times 10^{-5}\times 13.1 \times 10^{-4}}{3.1\times 10^{-2}}

emf=5.4090\times 10^{-4}V

how much gravitational potential energy do you give a 70 kg person when you lift him up 3 m in the air?
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Given gravitational potential energy when he's lifted is 2058 J.

Kinetic energy is transferred to the person.

Amount of kinetic energy the person has is -2058 J

velocity of person = 7.67 m/s².

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Given:

Weight of person = 70 kg

Lifted height = 3 m

1. Gravitational potential energy of a lifted person is equal to the work done.

PE_g=W=m\times g\times h\\Acceleration due to gravity = g = 9.8 \ m/s^2 \\PE_g= m = m\times g\times h= 70\times 9.8 \times 3 = 2058\ kg.m/s^2 = 2058\ J

Gravitational potential energy is equal to 2058 Joules.

2. The Gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is being transferred to the person.

3. Kinetic energy gained = Potential energy lost = -PE_g = -2058\ kg.m/s^2

Kinetic energy gained by the person = (-2058 kg.m/s²)

4. Velocity = ?

Kinetic energy magnitude= \frac{1}{2} m\times v^2 = m\times g \times h

Solving for v, we get

v=\sqrt{2gh} =\sqrt{2\times 9.8 \times 3} = \sqrt{58.8} = 7.67 m/s^2

The person will be going at a speed of 7.67 m/s².

Calculate the AMA of an access ramp if it takes 255 N of force to push a person in a wheelchair having a combined weight of 764
Andreyy89
Actual Mechanical Advantage(AMA) = Weight / Force
Here, Weight = 764 N
Force = 255 N

Substitute the values in to the expression, 
AMA = 764 / 255
AMA = 2.99

After rounding-off to the nearest tenth value, it would be 3

Finally, option C would be your answer.

Hope this helps!
