Answer:

C. 72

Explanation:

Transformer: A transformer is an electromagnetic device that uses the property of mutual inductance to change the voltage of alternating supply.

In a ideal transformer,

Vs/Vp = Ns/Np ............................................. Equation 1

Where Vp = primary voltage, Vs = secondary voltage, Ns = Secondary turn, Np = primary turn.

Making Ns the subject of the equation,

Ns =(Vs/Vp)Np .......................................... Equation 2

Given: Vs = 24 V, Vp = 115 V, Np = 345.

Substitute into equation 2

Ns = (24/115)345

Ns = 72 turns.

Thus the number of turns in the secondary = 72 turns.

The right option is C. 72

Two of the three tuning forks have known frequencies. When a 610 Hz fork and the unknown fork are struck together, four beats pe
RUDIKE [14]

-- In combination with 610 Hz, the beat frequency is 4 Hz.

So the unknown frequency is either (610+4) = 614 Hz
or else (610-4) = 606 Hz.

In combination with 605 Hz, the beat frequency will be
either (614-605) = 9 Hz or else (606-605) = 1 Hz.

-- In actuality, when combined with the 605 Hz, the beat
frequency is too high to count accurately.  That must be
the 9 Hz rather than the 1 Hz.

So the unknown is (605+9) = 614 Hz.

Two cars collide inelastically and stick together after the collision. Before the collision, the magnitudes of their momenta are
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

a) P1+P2

Explanation:

The magnitude of their combined momentum is just the addition of each momentum, because in this case of inelastic collision, the kinetic energy of the two cars are both converted to some form of energy because the velocity of both cars becomes zero, i.e., V=0, making P = mv = 0, this means the magnitude of P1 + P2 = 0.

A 120 V fish-tank heater is rated at 130W. Calculate (a) the current through the heater when it is operating, and (b) its resist
7nadin3 [17]

Explanation:

The power P dissipated by a heater is defined as

P = VI

where V is the voltage and I is the current.

a) The current running through a 130-W heater is

I = \dfrac{P}{V} = \dfrac{130\:\text{W}}{120\:\text{V}} = 1.08\:\text{A}

b) The resistance <em>R</em><em> </em>of the heater is

P = VI = (IR)I = I^2R

where V= IR is our familiar Ohm's Law.

\Rightarrow R = \dfrac{P}{I^2} = \dfrac{130\:\text{W}}{(1.08\:\text{A})^2}

R = 110.8\:Ω

in a solar system far, far away the sun's intensity is 200 w/m2 for an inner planet located a distance r away. what is the sun's
GarryVolchara [31]

The sun's intensity for an outer planet located at a distance 6r from the sun is 5.55 W/m². The result is obtained by using the inverse square law formula.

<h3>What is the Inverse Square Law formula?</h3>

The Inverse Square Law formula describes the intensity of light is inversely proportional to the square of the distance. It can be expressed as

\frac{I_{1} }{I_{2} } = \frac{d_{2}^{2} }{d_{1}^{2}}

Where

  • I₁ = Intensity at distance 1 (W/m²)
  • I₂ = Intensity at distance 2 (W/m²)
  • d₁ = distance 1 from a light source (m)
  • d₂ = distance 2 from a light source (m)

Given the case the sun's intensity is 200 W/m² for an inner planet at the distance r. If an outer planet is at a distance 6r, what is the sun's intensity?

By using the inverse square law formula, the sun's intensity for an outer planet is

\frac{I_{1} }{I_{2} } = \frac{d_{2}^{2} }{d_{1}^{2}}

\frac{200 }{I_{2} } = \frac{(6r)^{2} }{r^{2}}

\frac{200 }{I_{2} } = \frac{36r^{2} }{r^{2}}

I_{2} = \frac{200} {36}

I₂ = 5.55 W/m²

Hence, the sun's intensity for a planet at a distance 6r from the sun is 5.55 W/m².

A 38-kg canoe breaks free from its dock and floats downriver at a speed of 2.2 m/s. What is the momentum of the canoe? 48.0 m/s
Brut [27]
Momentum of a body is calculated by multiplying the mass of a moving body with its velocity. When a body is at rest it has zero momentum since the velocity is also zero.
In this case the momentum of the canoe will be;
 38 kg × 2.2 m/s = 83.6 kgm/s
Therefore, the correct answer is 83.6 kg m/s
