Answer:3.67 m/s

Explanation:

mass of block(m)=2 kg

Velocity of block=6 m/s

spring constant(k)=2 KN/m

Spring compression x=15 cm

Conserving Energy

energy lost by block =Gain in potential energy in spring

\frac{m(v_1^2-v_2^2)}{2}=\frac{kx^2}{2}

2\left [ 6^2-v_2^2\right ]=2\times 10^3\times \left [ 0.15\right ]^2

v_2=3.67 m/s

Consider a transformer. used to recharge rechargeable flashlight batteries, that has 500 turns in its primary coil, 3 turns in i
Rashid [163]

Answer:

<em>a) 0.72 V</em>

<em>b) 19.2 mA</em>

<em>c) 2.304 Watts</em>

Explanation:

A transformer is used to step-up or step-down voltage and current. It uses the principle of electromagnetic induction. When the primary coil is greater than the secondary coil, the it is a step-down transformer, and when the primary coil is less than the secondary coil, the it is a step-up transformer.

number of primary turns = N_{p} = 500 turns

input voltage = V_{p} = 120 V

number of secondary turns = N_{s} = 3 turns

output voltage = V_{s} = ?

using the equation for a transformer

\frac{V_{s} }{V_{p} }  = \frac{N_{s} }{N_{p} }

substituting values, we have

\frac{V_{s} }{120 }  = \frac{3 }{500} }

500V_{p}  = 120*3\\500V_{p} = 360

V_{p} = 360/500 =<em> 0.72 V</em>

<em></em>

b) by law of energy conservation,

I_{P}V_{p} = I_{s}V_{s}

where

I_{p} = input current = ?

I_{s} = output voltage = 3.2 A

V_{s} = output voltage = 0.72 V

V_{p} = input voltage = 120 V

substituting values, we have

120I_{p} = 3.2 x 0.72

120I_{p} = 2.304

I_{p}  = 2.304/120 = 0.0192 A

= <em>19.2 mA</em>

<em></em>

c) power input = I_{p} V_{p}

==> 0.0192 x 120 = <em>2.304 Watts</em>

Velocity of a machine is always greater than mechanical advantage? why​
MrRa [10]

Answer:The mechanical advantage of a machine is always less than its velocity ratio.It is because mechanical advantage decreases due to the friction and weight of moving parts of the machine, but the velocity ratio remains constant.

Explanation: hope this helps
