Why isn't direct current used in transformers

Direct current has no time varying field because current is constant as well as there is no relatively motion between coil and core of the transformer. So there is no induced emf in secondary coil of the transformer. Thus, direct current supply is not used for transformers.

Answer:

No, it will not and this has a historical importance. The reason is that transformers work via induction of electrical forces by changes in magnetic fields, so the constat fields produced by dc currents won't work at all

A charged cloud system produces an electric field in the air near earth's surface. a particle of charge -2.0 × 10-9 c is acted o

defon

Part a)

Magnitude of electric field is given by force per unit charge

$E = \frac{F}{q}$

$E = \frac{4.3 * 10^{-6}}{2 * 10^{-9}}$

$E = 2150 N/C$

Part b)

Electrostatic force on the proton is given as

F = qE

$F = 1.6 * 10^{-19} * 2150$

$F = 3.44 * 10^{-16} N$

PART C)

Gravitational force is given by

$F_g = mg$

$F_g = 1.6 * 10^{-27}*9.8$

$F_g = 1.57 * 10^{-26} N$

PART d)

Ratio of electric force to weight

$\frac{F_e}{F_g} = \frac{3.44 * 10^{-16}}{1.57*10^{-26}}$

$\frac{F_e}{F_g} = 2.2 * 10^{10}$

A high-jumper, having just cleared the bar, lands on an air mattress and comes to rest. Had she landed directly on the hard grou

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

e. the air mattress exerts the same impulse, but a smaller net avg force, on the high-jumper than hard-ground.

Explanation:

This is according to the Newton's second law and energy conservation that the force exerted by the hard-ground is more than the force exerted by the mattress.

The hard ground stops the moving mass by its sudden reaction in the opposite direction of impact force whereas the mattress takes a longer time to stop the motion of same mass in a longer time leading to lesser average reaction force.

Mathematical expression for the Newton's second law of motion is given as:

$F=\frac{dp}{dt}$ ............................................(1)
