Answer:

the answer is B 80turns

Explanation:

Hello!

Remember that a transformer is an electrical device that allows you to change the voltage and current levels keeping the electric power constant, in this order of ideas the equation that governs this device is as follows

\frac{Vs}{Vp} =\frac{Ns}{Np}\\

where

Vp= primary voltage=120V

Vs= secondary voltage=1200V

Ns=turns of secondary=800

Np=turns of primary

now we solve for Np

\frac{Vs}{Vp} =\frac{Ns}{Np}\\\\Np=Ns\frac{Vp}{Vs} \\

Np=800\frac{120}{1200}=80turns

the answer is B 80turns

What changes must be done to the wire to increase its conductance.​
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

- Decreasing the resistance

- Using a shorter length

- Using a smaller area wire

Explanation:

Formula for conductance in wires is;

G = 1/R

Where;

G is conductance

R is resistance

This means that increasing the resistance leads to a larger denominator and thus a smaller conductance but to decrease the denominator means larger conductance.

Thus, to increase the conductance, we have to decrease the resistance.

Resistance here has a formula of;

R = ρL/A

Where;

ρ is resistivity

L is length of wire

A is area

Thus, to decrease the resistance, we will have to use a shorter length and smaller area of wire.

1.   A car travels along a straight road to the east for 100 meters in 4 seconds, then go the west for 50 meters in 1 second.
Alla [95]

Answer:

a.Distance = 150 m

b. Displacement = 50 m

Time lapsed = 5 seconds

Explanation:

a. Distance is the change in the position of an object.

The distance covered by the car = 100 + 50

                                                   = 150 m

b. Since displacement is a vector quantity,

Displacement of the car = 100 - 50

                                        = 50 m due east

c. Time elapsed is the time taken for the motion of the car starting from when its starts to when it stops.

Thus, the time elapsed = 4 + 1

                        = 5 seconds

1. The geologic time scale divides time into years and centuries, true or false
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

The answer is "False"

Explanation:

The geologic time scale is the "schedule" for occasions in Earth history. It partitions time into named units of unique time called in descending order of duration "eons, eras, periods, epochs, and ages". The specification of those geologic time units depends on stratigraphy, which is the relationship and order of rock layers. The fossil structures that happen in the stones, nonetheless, give the central methods for setting up a geologic time scale, with the circumstance of the development and vanishing of far and wide species from the fossil record being used to outline the beginnings and endings of ages,, periods, and different stretches.

Geologic time is the broad time period involved by the geologic history of Earth. Formal geologic time starts toward the beginning of the Archean Eon (4.0 billion to 2.5 billion years back) and proceeds to the current day.

In a series circuit what effect will adding more resistors to the circuit have
zhuklara [117]

Answer:In a series circuit, adding more resistors increases total resistance and thus lowers current. But the opposite is true in a parallel circuit because adding more resistors in parallel creates more choices and lowers total resistance. If the same battery is connected to the resistors, current will increase.

Bicycle A with mass 40 Kg is traveling with a velocity of 4 m/s and Bicycle B with mass 20 Kg is traveling with a velocity of 2m
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

bicycle A has a greater K.E.

Explanation:

K.E = 1/2mv²

bicycle A = 1/2 × 40 × 4² = 320J

bicycle B = 1/2 × 20 × 2² = 100J

bicycle A has a greater K.E. because it has bigger mass and moves with faster velocity
