An inductor and a resistor are connected in series. When connected to a 60-Hz, 90-V (rms) source, the voltage drop across the re

sistor is found to be 51 V (rms) and the power delivered to the circuit is 17 W. (a) Find the value of the resistance.
(b) Find the value of the inductance.

Answer:

resistance = 154.54 ohm

inductance is 59.60%

Explanation:

given data

frequency f = 60 Hz

V rms = 90 V

V rms =51 V

power P = 17 W

to find out

resistance and inductance

solution

we will apply here power formula here to find current I

power = I ( Vrms)

I = 17 / 51 = 0.33

current I = 0.33 A

so resistance formula is

resistance = V / I

resistance = 51 / 0.33

resistance = 154.54 ohm

and

we know inductance L formula

x = 2πfL

so L = x / 2πf   ................a

we know

x = √(Z² - R²)

x = √((90/0.33)² - (154.54²))

x = 224.71

so from equation a

L = 224.71 / 2π(60)

L = 0.5960

so  inductance is 59.60%

Mary was looking out of the window she saw lightening and then heard thunder a few seconds later explain why she saw lightening
alekssr [168]

Explanation:

It is based upon the fact that " The light travels faster then sound." As the speed of light is faster then the speed of sound, light travels 300,000 km per second and sound travels 1192 km per hour. That is why we observe the lightening first and hear the the sound of thunder later.

        You can do this experiment by yourself. Once you see the lightening start counting the seconds until you hear the sound of thunder.Then divide the seconds by 5, you will find out how many miles away the lightening strike was.
