A small piece of Styrofoam packing material is dropped from a height of 2.60 m above the ground. Until it reaches terminal speed

, the magnitude of its acceleration is given by a = g − Bv. After falling 0.600 m, the Styrofoam effectively reaches terminal speed, and then takes 4.50 s more to reach the ground.
(a) What is the value of the constant B? s-1.
(b) What is the acceleration at t = 0? [m/s2 (down)].
(c) What is the acceleration when the speed is 0.150 m/s? [m/s2 (down)].

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) After the attainment of terminal speed , object takes 4.5 s to cover a distance of 2 m

So terminal speed V = 2 / 4.5

= .444 m /s

When it attains terminal speed , acceleration becomes zero

0 = g - B x .444

B = 22.25 s⁻¹

b ) At t = 0 , v = 0

a = g - B v

a = g at t = 0

c ) When v = .15

a = g - 22.25 x .15

= 9.8 - 3.31

= 6.5  m /s²

If two conductors are not touching but are close to each other, a large enough voltage will cause an _________________ to occur
Aleks [24]

Answer:

Electrical breakdown.

Explanation:

When two conductors are relatively close enough, and have a very large voltage between them, it can lead to a Dielectric breakdown. A dielectric breakdown occurs when an insulator is subjected to a high enough voltage, suddenly becomes an electrical conductor and electric current flows through it. The air between the conductors is the insulator that breaks down, leading to an electrical discharge arc to flow between the two conductors. This electrical breakdown can cause catastrophic failure of electrical equipment, and fire hazards.

For installation with a 25-kVA, 3-phase transformer, a 440-volt primary, and a 120-volt secondary. Calculate the maximum overcur
andre [41]

Answer:

41.053 A

Explanation:

given,

three phase kVA = 25-kVA

voltage = 440 Volt

current = ?

To determine three phase kVA when volts and amperes are know

   three phase kVA = 1.73 x V x I

    I = \dfrac{three\ phase\ kVA}{1.73 \times V}

    I = \dfrac{25000}{1.73 \times 440}

           I = 32.84 A

the maximum overcurrent protection value is equal to

            = 125 % of I

            = 1.25 x 32.84

            = 41.053 A
