If the resistance in a circuit remains constant and the current increases, then the power will increase. (A)

In fact, it'll increase as fast as the square of the current ! Like, if the current somehow increases to 3 times as much, the circuit will start using 9 times as much power as it did before.

If you hold your hand over a pot of boiling water, it feels hot. Explain how the boiling water is transforming heat to your hand

MakcuM [25]

I don't no if this helps but the body heat from your hand causes the liquid to boil, which in turn makes the liquid evaporate, turning it to gas. The expanding gas pushes the liquid upwards and when you release your hand, equilibrium is re-established.

A 60-Hz single-phase transformer with capacity of 150 kVA has the following parameters: RP = 0.35 Ω RS = 0.002 Ω Rc = 5.2 kΩ XP

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Total Resistance, Rt = (0.35 + 0.002 + 5200 + 0.5 + 0.008 + 1100) = 6300 ohms

a) Capacity of transformer, Pt = 150KVA = 150,000 W

Input Voltage, Vp = 2.8 KV = 2800 V

Current, Ip = 150000/2800 = 53.57 A

Input impedance, Zp = Vp/Ip = 2800/5357 = 52.27 ohms

b) i) Input current = 53.57 A

ii) Voltage, V = Ip * Rt = 53.57 X 6300 = 337.5 KV

iii) Power, P = I² * Rt = (53.57)² X 6300 = 18.08 MW

iv) Power factor = 0.83

To solve this problem we will apply the momentum conservation theorem, that is, the initial momentum of the bodies must be the same final momentum of the bodies. The value that will be obtained will be a vector value of the final speed of which the magnitude will be found later. Our values are given as,
