Answer:

magnitude

Explanation:

There are two types of quantities.

Scalars: The quantities which are completely described by their magnitudes only are called scalars.

For example, mass, length, time, speed, temperature, etc.

Vectors: The quantities which are completely explained by their magnitude and direction both are called vectors. For example, velocity, weight, force, momentum, etc.

As speed is a scalar quantity so it can be completely described by their magnitude only.

If a transformer has 50 turns in the primary winding and 10 turns on the secondary winding, what is the reflected resistance in
Elza [17]

Answer:

The reflected resistance in the primary winding is 6250 Ω

Explanation:

Given;

number of turns in the primary winding, N_P = 50 turns

number of turns in the secondary winding, N_S = 10 turns

the secondary load resistance, R_S = 250 Ω

Determine the turns ratio;

K = \frac{N_P}{N_S} \\\\K = \frac{50}{10} \\\\K = 5

Now, determine the reflected resistance in the primary winding;

\frac{R_P}{R_S} = K^2\\\\R_P = R_SK^2\\\\R_P = 250(5)^2\\\\R_P = 6250 \ Ohms

Therefore, the reflected resistance in the primary winding is 6250 Ω

Write the first equation of motion. Under what condition(s) is this equation valid?​
Zepler [3.9K]

Explanation:

The first equation of motion in kinematics is given by :

v=u+at .....(1)

u is initial speed

a is acceleration

v is final speed

t is time

Equation (1) is valid when the object is moving with constant acceleration. This equation gives relation between velocity and time.
