Single-phase transformers can operate to either increasing or decreasing the voltage applied to the primary winding. When a transformer is used to “increase” the voltage on the secondary winding with respect to the primary, it is called a Step-up transformer

A car is stopped at a traffic light. When the light turns green at t=0, a truck with a constant speed passes the car with a 20m/

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

At $t = (70 / 3) \; {\rm s}$ (approximately $23.3 \; {\rm s}$ .)

Explanation:

Note that the acceleration of the car between $t = 0\; {\rm s}$ and $t = 20\; {\rm s}$ ( $\Delta t = 20\; {\rm s}$ ) is constant. Initial velocity of the car was $v_{0} = 0\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}$ , whereas $v_{1} = 35\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}$ at $t = 20\; {\rm s}\!$ . Hence, at $t = 20\; {\rm s}\!\!$ , this car would have travelled a distance of:

$\begin{aligned}x &= \frac{(v_{1} - v_{0})\, \Delta t}{2} \\ &= \frac{(35\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}} - 0\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) \times (20\; {\rm s})}{2} \\ &= 350\; {\rm m}\end{aligned}$ .

At $t = 20\; {\rm s}$ , the truck would have travelled a distance of $x = v\, t = 20\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}} \times 20\; {\rm s} = 400\; {\rm m}$ .

In other words, at $t = 20\; {\rm s}$ , the truck was $400\; {\rm m} - 350\; {\rm m} = 50\; {\rm m}$ ahead of the car. The velocity of the car is greater than that of the truck by $35\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}} - 20\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}} = 15 \; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}$ . It would take another $(50\; {\rm m}) / (15\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) = (10/3)\; {\rm s}$ before the car catches up with the truck.

Hence, the car would catch up with the truck at $t = (20 + (10/3))\; {\rm s} = (70 / 3)\; {\rm s}$ .
