A high voltage transmission line with a resistance of 0.51 Ω/km carries a current of 1099 A. The line is at a potential of 1300

kV at the power station and carries the current to a city located 156 km from the power station. What is the power loss due to resistance in the line? Answer in units of MW

<h2>Answer:</h2>

\boxed{P=96.09MW}

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

First of all, we need to figure out what is the resistance in that line. In this problem, the total resistance is not given directly, but we can calculate it because we know it in terms of 0.51 Ω/km and since the distance from the power station to the city is 156km, then:

R_{line}=0.51 \frac{\Omega}{km}.156km \\ \\ R_{line}=79.56\Omega

So we can calculate the power loss as:

P=I^2R \\ \\ Where: \\ \\I=1099A \\ \\ P=(1099)^2(79.56) \\ \\ P=96092647.56W \\ \\ Remember \ that \ 1MW=10^6W \ So: \\ \\ P=96092647.56W(\frac{1M}{10^6}) \\ \\ \boxed{P=96.09MW}

Finally, the power loss due to resistance in the line is 96.09MW

Sketch a position-time graph for a bear starting
Dmitrij [34]

Explanation:

hopefully that makes sense. the position doesn't change over the 5 seconds, meaning it's stopped but time still continues. then when the slope is negative this shows the bear's position becoming negative (backing up, changing direction).

A horizontal 810-N merry-go-round of radius 1.60 m is started from rest by a constant horizontal force of 55 N applied tangentia
Sloan [31]

Answer:

576 joules

Explanation:

From the question we are given the following:

weight = 810 N

radius (r) = 1.6 m

horizontal force (F) = 55 N

time (t) = 4 s

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}

K.E = 0.5 x MI x ω^{2}

where MI is the moment of inertia and ω is the angular velocity

MI = 0.5 x m x r^2

mass = weight ÷ g = 810 ÷ 9.8 = 82.65 kg

MI = 0.5 x 82.65 x 1.6^{2}

MI = 105.8 kg.m^{2}

angular velocity (ω) = a x t

angular acceleration (a) = torque ÷ MI

where torque = F x r = 55 x 1.6 = 88 N.m

a= 88 ÷ 105.8 = 0.83 rad /s^{2}

therefore

angular velocity (ω) = a x t = 0.83 x 4 = 3.33 rad/s

K.E = 0.5 x MI x ω^{2}

K.E = 0.5 x 105.8 x 3.33^{2} = 576 joules

Will kilogram of hydrogen contains more atoms than kilogram of lead?
Zigmanuir [339]
Yes a kg of hydrogen will have more atoms than a kg of lead, because lead has a higher atomic mass, than hydrogen so it will take more atoms of hydrogen to make a kg than lead
