A transformer has a 240 V primary and a 60 V secondary. With a 5 ohm load connected, what is the primary current?

Answer:primary current is 3A

Explanation:

primary voltage Vp=240V

secondary voltage Vs=60V

resistance 5Ω

primary current in the circuit is

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

Sound waves, water waves, and light waves are all alike in that they all

Paha777 [63]

Sound and water waves are longitudinal waves, they require a medium to travel through and occilate particles 90 degrees to the wave motion
Light is a transverse wave. It doesnt require a medium to travel through.
All three reflect, refract and diffract

Light is difficult to think of because it acts in ways which waves cannot explain in some cirumstances. It acts like a particle (called photons) in some conditions, but acts like a normal sound or water wave does in others. Try not to get too caught up in light being a wave or a particle because even physists dont know how to explain it yet.

A comet is cruising through the solar system at a speed of 50,000 kilometers per hour foe 4 hours time. What is the total distan

Triss [41]

Answer:

<em>The distance covered by comet is </em> $200,000 km$

Explanation:

Speed is defined as the rate of change of distance with time. It is given by the equation speed= $\bold{\frac{distance}{time}}$

Thus distance= $speed*time$

In this problem it is given that speed of comet= $\frac{50,000km}{hr}$

time travelled by the comet= 4 hours

Thus distance= $speed*time$

= $500000*4$

= $\bold{200,000km}$

The Displacement is 5m. We found that using the

Llana [10]

Answer:

A vector can be written as:

(R, θ)

Where R is the magnitude, in this case, we know that the magnitude of the displacement is 5m

Then:

R = 5m

and θ defines the direction, it's an angle measured from the positive x-axis.

(In the image, θ would be the angle located at the point A)

Now, if you look at the image, you can see a triangle rectangle.

Where the adjacent cathetus has a length of 4,

the opposite cathetus has a length of 3 units

the hypotenuse has a length of 5 units.

So we can use any trigonometric rule to find the value of θ, like:

sin(θ) = (opposite cathetus)/hypotenuse

Then:

sin(θ) = 3m/5m

Now we can use the inverse sin function, Asin(x), in both sides

Asin( sin(θ)) = θ = Asin( 3/5) = 36.87°

then the vector is:

(5m, 36.87°)

Now, if we define the positive y-axis as the North, and the positive x-axis as the East.

This vector would point at 36.87° North of East.

(or almost Northeast)
