F= MA
force equals mass time acceleration
250 N = (70 kg ) (A)
250/70 = 3.5 which is about 4 m/s
Hope this helps

Masja [62]

Answer:

distance of 2nd team from 1st team will be: 58.2

Direction of 2nd team from 1st team will be: 14.90 deg North of east

Explanation:

ASSUME Vector is R and makes angle A with +x-axis,

therefore component of vector R is

$R_x = Rcos A$

$R_y = Rsin A$

From above relation

Assuming base camp as the origin, location of 1st team is

$R_1 = 37 km$ away at 21 deg North of west (North of west is in 2nd quadrant, So x is -ve and y is positive)

$R_{1x} = -R_1*cos A_1 = -37*cos 21 deg = -34.54 km$

$R_{1y} = R_1*sin A_1 = 37*sin 21 deg = 13.25 km$

location of 2nd team is at

$R_2 = 32 km$ , at 38 deg East of North = 32 km, at 58 deg North of east (North of east is in 1st quadrant, So x and y both are +ve)

$R_{2x} = R_2*cos A_2 = 32*cos 58 deg = 16.95 km$

$R_{2y} = R_2*sin A_2 = 32*sin 58 deg = 27.13 km$

Now position of 2nd team with respect to 1st team will be given by:

$R_3 = R_2 - R_1$

$R_3 = (R_{2x} - R_{1x}) i + (R_{2y} - R_{1y}) j$

Using above values:

$R_3 = (16.95 - (-34.54)) i + (27.13 - 13.42) j$

$R_3 = 51.49 i + 13.71 j$

distance of 2nd team from 1st team will be:

$\left | R_3 \right | = \sqrt (51.49^2 +13.71^2)$

$\left | R_3 \right | = 53.28 km = 58.2 km$

Direction of 2nd team from 1st team will be:

$Direction = tan^{-1} \frac{R_{3y}}{R_{3x}} = tan^{-1}[ \frac{13.71}{51.49}]$

Direction = 14.90 deg North of east

The per-unit impedance of a single-phase electric load is 0.3. The base power is 500 kVA, and the base voltage is 13.8 kV. a. Fi

Leto [7]

Answer:

114.26

Explanation:

a)Formula for per unit impedance for change of base is

Zpu2= Zpu1×(kV1/kV2)²×(kVA2/kVA1)

Zpu2: New per unit impedance

Zpu1: given per unit impedance

kV1: give base voltage

kV2: New bas votlage

kVA1: given bas power

kVA2: new base power

In the question

Zpu2=??

Zpu1= 0.3

kV2=24kV

kV1= 13.8 kV

kVA2= 1MVA ×1000= 1000 kVA

kVA1=500kVA

Zpu2= 0.3(13.8/24)²×(1000/500)

Zpu2= 0.198

b) to find ohmic impedance we will first calculate base value of impedance(Zbase). So,

Zbase= kV²/MVA

Zbase= 13.8²/(500/1000)

Zbase=380.88

Now that we have base value of impedance, Zbase, we can calculate actual ohmic value of impedance(Zactual) by using the following formula:

Zpu=Zactual/Zbase

0.3= Zactual/380.88

Zactual= 114.26 ohms
