Answer:

Voltage

Explanation:

In a parallel circuit, electric current has more than one path to flow and the loads are parallel to each other.When one of the loads( bulb) is malfunctioning, current still flows in the other path to serve the remaining loads.The voltage is the same in every part of a parallel circuit.This is because the difference in potential at the start of the circuit equals that at the end of the circuit.

A transformer is to be used to provide power for a computer disk drive that needs 6.0 V (rms) instead of the 120 V (rms) from th

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

$N_{2}$ =20 turns

Explanation:

The given case is a step down transformer as we need to reduce 120 V to 6 V.

number of turns on primary coil N_{P}= 400

current delivered by secondary coil I_{S}= 500 mA

output voltage = 6 V (rms)

we know that

$I_{p}=\frac{V_{out}}{V_{in}\times I_{s}}$

putting values we get

$I_{p}=\frac{6}{120\times 0.5}$

$I_{p}= 0.1 A$

to calculate number of turns in secondary

$\frac{N_{2}}{400} =\frac{6}{120}$

therefore, $N_{2}$ =20 turns

A(n) 30 kg boy rides a roller coaster. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . With what force does he press against the seat

forsale [732]

Answer:

Force, F = 187.42 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of boy, m = 30 kg

Acceleration due to gravity, $a=9.8\ m/s^2$

Radius of curvature of the roller coaster, r = 15 m

Speed of the car, v = 7.3 m/s

The force acting on the boy are force of gravity and the centripetal force. The net force acting on him is as follows :

$F=mg-\dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

$F=m(g-\dfrac{v^2}{r})$

$F=30\times (9.8-\dfrac{(7.3)^2}{15})$

F = 187.42 N

So, he press against the seat with a force is 187.42 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

Using energy considerations, calculate the average force (in N) a 62.0 kg sprinter exerts backward on the track to accelerate fr

slava [35]

Answer:

69.68 N

Explanation:

Work done is equal to change in kinetic energy

W = ΔK = Kf - Ki = $\frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{f} - \frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{i}$

W = $F_{total} .d$

where m = mass of the sprinter

vf = final velocity

vi = initial velocity

W = workdone

kf = final kinetic energy

ki = initial kinetic energy

d = distance traveled

Ftotal = total force

vf = 8m/s

vi= 2m/s

d = 25m

m = 60kg

inserting parameters to get:

W = ΔK = Kf - Ki = $\frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{f} - \frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{i}$

$F_{total} .d =\frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{f} - \frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{i}$

$F_{total} = \frac{\frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{f} - \frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{i}}{d}$

$F_{total=} \frac{\frac{1}{2} X 62 X6^{2} -\frac{1}{2} X 62 X2^{2} }{25}$

= 39.7

we know that the force the sprinter exerted F sprinter, the force of the headwind Fwind = 30N

$F_{sprinter} = F_{total} + F_{wind} = 39.7 + 30 = 69.68 N$
