1. I_2 = 0.14 I_1

Explanation:

We have:

V_1 = 15.7 V voltage in the primary coil

V_2 = 110 V voltage in the secondary coil

The efficiency of the transformer is 100%: this means that the power in the primary coil and in the secondary coil are equal

P_1 = P_2\\V_1 I_1 = V_2 I_2

where I1 and I2 are the currents in the two coils. Re-arranging the equation, we find

\frac{I_2}{I_1}=\frac{V_1}{V_2}=\frac{15.7 V}{110 V}=0.14

which means that the current in the secondary coil is 14% of the value of the current in the primary coil.

2. 5.7 V

We can solve the problem by using the transformer equation:

\frac{N_p}{N_s}=\frac{V_p}{V_s}

where:

Np = 400 is the number of turns in the primary coil

Ns = 19 is the number of turns in the secondary coil

Vp = 120 V is the voltage in the primary coil

Vs = ? is the voltage in the secondary coil

Re-arranging the formula and substituting the numbers, we find:

V_s = V_p \frac{N_s}{N_p}=(120 V)\frac{19}{400}=5.7 V

A police car is located 50 feet to the side of a straight road. A red car is driving along the road in the direction of the poli
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:74.33 feet per sec

Explanation:

Given

Police car is 50 feet side of road

Red car is 140 feet up the road

Distance between them is decreasing at the rate of 70 feet per sec

From figure

x^2+y^2=z^2

z=\sqrt{140^2+50^2}

z=148.66 feet

as the red car is moving

therefore its velocity magnitude is given by

\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}

2x\times \frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}+0=2z\frac{\mathrm{d} z}{\mathrm{d} t}

x\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=z\frac{\mathrm{d} z}{\mathrm{d} t}

140\times \frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=148.66\times 70

\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=74.33 feet\ per\ sec

In an "atom smasher," two particles collide head on at relativistic speeds. If the velocity of the first particle is 0.741c to t
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

W_x = 0.9156\ c

Explanation:

given,

velocity of particle 1 = 0.741 c to left

velocity of second particle = 0.543 c to right

relative velocity between the particle = ?

for the relative velocity calculation we have formula

W_x = \dfrac{|u_x - v_x|}{1-\dfrac{u_xv_x}{c^2}}

u_x = 0.543 c

v_x = - 0.741 c

W_x = \dfrac{0.543 c - (-0.741 c)}{1-\dfrac{(0.543 c)(-0.741 c)}{c^2}}

W_x = \dfrac{0.543 c +0.741 c)}{1+\dfrac{(0.543)(0.741)c^2}{c^2}}

W_x = \dfrac{1.284c}{1+0.402363}

W_x = 0.9156\ c

Relative velocity of the particle is W_x = 0.9156\ c

Changes of state
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

At segment T-U, the substance changes from a liquid to a gas and does not change temperature.

The reason is because latent heat of vaporisation allows for the absorption of heat in the change of state and temperature remains constant until it has fully changed state.

Do not worry if you don't recognize both parts of the problem at this point. If you recognize the dynamics problem,<span> On the other hand, if you recognize this as a kinematics problem you will quickly see that you need to find angular acceleration before you can begin and so will need to do that pre-step first.</span>
