What does set up transformer do? Set down transform

A step-up transformer is used to increase the voltage and reduce the current. The voltage is increased from about 25,000 Volts (V) to 400,000 V causing the current to decrease. Less current means less energy is lost through heating the wire. To keep people safe from these high voltage wires, pylons are used to support transmission lines above the ground.
Before reaching the end user, a step-down transformer, reduces the voltage from the transmission voltage to the safer voltage of 230 V for home use.

A Carnot engine whose high-temperature reservoir is at 620 k takes in 550 J of heat at this temperature in each cycle and gives
yarga [219]

Answer:

(a) W=217 J

(b) Tc=378K

(c) e=0.39=39%

Explanation:

For part (a)

We to calculate the mechanical work W the engine  does. By knowing QC and QH can obtain the work using equation  

W = IQHI — IQcl  .....................eq(1)

Put given values for QH and QC into equation (1) to get  

the mechanical work of the engine  

W = 550 - 335  

W=217 J

For part (b)

We want to determine the temperature of low temperature  reservoir which means Tc  

IQc|/|Qh| =TC/TH  

for Tc  

Tc=(IQc|/|Qh|)*TH

Now we can put values

Tc= 620K  (335/ 550.1)  

Tc=378K  

For part (c)

Here we want to find the thermal efficiency (e) of the cycle

e=1-TC/TH

e=1-(378/620)

e=0.39=39%

A stone is thrown from the top of a building with an initial velocity of 20 m/s downward. The top of the building is 60 m above
erastova [34]

Answer:

t = 2 s

Explanation:

In order to find the time taken by the stone to fall from the top of the building to the ground we can use 2nd equation of motion. 2nd equation of motion is as follows:

s = Vit + (0.5)gt²

where,

t = time = ?

Vi = Initial Velocity = 20 m/s

s = height of building = 60 m

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

60 m = (20 m/s)t + (0.5)(9.8 m/s²)t²

4.9t² + 20t - 60 = 0

solving this quadratic equation we get:

t = -6.1 s   (OR)   t = 2 s

Since, the time cannot be negative in magnitude.

Therefore,

<u>t = 2 s</u>
