The peak value of an alternating current in a 1500-W device is 6.4 A. What is the rms voltage across it

Physics
1 answer:
horrorfan [7]3 years ago

Answer:

6787.5 V

Explanation:

From the question,

P = IV..................... Equation 1

Where P = Power, I = rms current, V = rms voltage.

make V the subject of the equation

V = P/I................. Equation 2

Given: P = 1500 W, I = 6.4/√2 = 4.525 A

Substitute these values into equation 2

V = 1500(4.525)

V = 6787.5 V

Hence the rms voltage = 6787.5 V

Why are hypothesis valuable even if it is not supported by data.
KengaRu [80]
A hypothesis proposes a mechanism of change that can be tested. If the results indicate the hypothesized mechanism is not the one in operation it narrows the field and we know more. A falsified hypothesis tested by a well designed experiment still provides real evidence about the world. 

<span>It was once thought that maggots spontaneously arose from carrion. This was tested and falsified providing evidence this was not how new generations of flies appeared. This still left the question of how flies generated new life to be explored. One falsified hypothesis does not block further research into the question.

</span><span>Even a failed hypothesis can increase scientific knowledge if done correctly. By knowing this hypothesis is not how something works, you save time for future scientists and can now use your effort in other investigations. That is the real value of hypothesis that are not supported by evidence.</span>

A capacitor is connected to an ac generator that has a frequency of 3.4 kHz and produces a voltage of 2.0 V. The current in the
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

V_G=3.302857143V

Explanation:

Let´s find the capacitor impedance:

V=IZ_C

Using the data provided:

Z_C=\frac{V}{I}=\frac{2}{0.035}=57.14285714 Ω

Now let´s find the capacitance:

Z_C=\frac{1}{j2\pi fC }

C=\frac{1}{j2\pi fZ_C} =\frac{1}{j2\pi (3400)(57.14285714)}= 0.8191798542 μF

We can calculate the capacitor impedance for the second case:

Z_C=\frac{1}{j2\pi fC}=\frac{1}{j2\pi (5000)(0.8191798542X10^{-6}) }=38.85714285 Ω

Finally we can calculate the voltage of the second generator:

V_G=IZ_C=(0.085)(38.85714285)=3.302857143V

An asteroid is discovered in a nearly circular orbit around the Sun, with an orbital radius that is 3.83 times Earth's. What is
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

About 7.5 years

Explanation:

The orbital period is proportional to the semimajor axis raised to the power of 3/2.

The orbital period is <em>also</em> inversely proportional to the square root of the sum of the masses of the sun and the asteroid; however, the sun's mass is a constant and the asteroid's mass is negligible in comparison with the sun's mass.
