Answer:

170N

Explanation:

First add 530N to 150N and you get 680N, then add 400N to 450N and get 850N. So subtract 850N by 680N and you get 170N

I wish to use a step up transformer to turn an initial RMS AC voltage of 100 V into a final RMS AC voltage of 200 V. What is the
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

1:2

Explanation:

It is given that,

Initial RMS AC voltage is 100 V and final RMS AC voltage is 200 V.

We need to find the ratio of the number of turns in the primary to the secondary  for step up transformer.

For a transformer, \dfrac{V_1}{V_2}=\dfrac{N_1}{N_2}

So,

\dfrac{N_1}{N_2}=\dfrac{100}{200}\\\\\dfrac{N_1}{N_2}=\dfrac{1}{2}

So, the ratio of the number of turns in the primary to the secondary is 1:2.

A railroad car of mass 2.50 3 104 kg is moving with a speed of 4.00 m/s. It collides and couples with three other coupled railro
ipn [44]

Answer:2.5 m/s

37.5KJ

Explanation:

Let u_1, u_2 , v_f be the initial velocity of rail road car ,coupled cars & Final velocity of system respectively.

m=2.50\times 10^{4}

Conserving momentum

mu_1+3mu_2=4mv_f

4m+6m=4mv_f

v_f=2.5 m/s

Therefore Final velocity of system is 2.5m/s

(b)Mechanical Energy lost =Initial Kinetic Energy -Final Kinetic Energy

Initial Kinetic Energy=\frac{1}{2}m\left ( 4^2\right )+\frac{1}{2}m\left ( 2^2\right )=14m J

Final Kinetic Energy=\frac{1}{2}4m\left ( 2.5^2\right )=12.5m J

Mechanical Energy lost=14m-12.5m=3.75\times 10^4=37.5 KJ

Two wires of the same material and having the same volume, are fixed
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

48 kg

Explanation:

Given that the two wires are of same material, so their value of young's modulus will be same

Assuming that the wires are cylindrical in shape

As radius of the first wire is half that of the second wire and therefore the area of cross-section of the first wire will be one-fourth of the second wire( ∵ wire is cylindrical, the cross-sectional part will be circle and the area of the circle = π × r² )

As the volume is same for both wires

∴ π × (r_{1})² × l_{1} = π × (r_{2})² × l_{2}

Here

r_{1} is the radius of the first wire

r_{2} is the radius of the second wire

l_{1} is the length of the first wire

l_{2} is the length of the second wire

⇒ π × ((r_{2})² ÷ 4) × l_{1} = π × (r_{2})² × l_{2} (∵ radius of first wire is half that of the second wire)

By cancelling the same terms on both sides

we get

l_{1} = 4 × l_{2}

⇒ Length of first wire will be four times of the length of second wire

<h3>Strain is defined as the elongation per unit length</h3>

Strain in first wire = ΔL ÷ l_{1} = ΔL ÷ (4 × l_{2})

where ΔL is the elongation of the wire which in this case is same in both wires

Strain in second wire = ΔL ÷ l_{2}

∴ Strain in second wire is four times of strain in first wire

<h3>Stress = F ÷ A</h3>

where F is the force perpendicular to the cross-sectional area

A is the area of cross-section

Force in first wire = m_{1} × g

where m_{1} is the mass hanged to the first wire

g is the acceleration due to gravity

Force in second wire = m_{2} × g

where m_{2} is the mass hanged to the second wire

g is the acceleration due to gravity

Let A_{1} be the cross-sectional area of first wire

A_{2} be the cross-sectional area of second wire

A_{2} = 4 × A_{1} (∵ cross=sectional area of the wire = π × (radius of the wire)² )

Stress in first wire = (m_{1} × g) ÷ (A_{1})

Stress in second wire = (m_{2} × g) ÷ (A_{2}) = (m_{2} × g) ÷ (4 × A_{1})

<h3>Young's modulus is defined as Stress per unit strain</h3>

As Young's modulus is same for both wires, Stress per unit strain must be same for both wires

Stress per unit strain of first wire = ((m_{1} × g) ÷ (A_{1})) ÷ (ΔL ÷ (4 × l_{2}))

Stress per unit strain of second wire = ((m_{2} × g) ÷ (4 × A_{1})) ÷ (ΔL ÷ l_{2})

By equating them we get

m_{2} = 16 × m_{1}

⇒ m_{2} = 16 × 3 = 48 kg

∴ m_{2} = 48 kg
