Answer: 6Ω

Explanation:

Since the resistors are connected in series, the total resistance (Rtotal) of the circuit is the sum of each resistance.

i.e Rtotal = R1 + R2

R1 = 2Ω

R2 = 4Ω

Rtotal = ?

Rtotal = 2Ω + 4Ω

Rtotal = 6Ω

Thus, the total resistance of the circuit is 6Ω

An object has a mass of 14 grams and a density of 7 g/mL. When placed in water it sinks. What is the Volume of water displaced?
iVinArrow [24]

Explanation:

D = M/V

We rearrange this equation to get V = M/D

So 14 g/7 g/mL,

the grams cancel out, and we're left with 2 mL.

D is the answer.

50. A large power plant generates electricity at 12.0 kV. Its old transformer once converted the voltage to 335 kV. The secondar
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )  The transformer steps  up  the voltage from 12000 V  to 335000 V . Voltage in primary is 12000 V and in the secondary it is 335000 V in old transformer

If n₁ be no of turns in primary coil and n₂ be no of turns in secondary coils

the formula is

n₂ / n₁ = voltage in secondry / voltage in primary

n₂ / n₁ = 335000 / 12000

ratio of turns  in old transformer

= 27.9

ratio of turns  in new transformer

n₃ / n₁ = 750 / 12 ( n₃ is no of turns in the  secondary of new transformer )

= 62.5

T he ratio of turns in the new secondary compared with the old secondary

n₃ / n₂ = 62.5 / 27.9

= 2.24

b ) Current in secondary / current in primary

= turns in primary / turns in secondary

current output ratio of old

= Current in secondary / current in primary

= n₁ / n₂

= 12 / 335

= .03582

current output ratio of new

= Current in secondary / current in primary

= n₁ / n₃

= 12 / 750  

= .016

The ratio of new current output to old output (at 335 kV) for the same power

= .016 / .03582

= .4466

c ) power loss in new

=  (current in secondary )² x resistance of secondary

=( .016 x current in primary )² x R

= 2.56 X 10⁻⁴ X ( current in primary )² x R

power loss in old  

=  (current in secondary )² x resistance of secondary

=( .03582 x current in primary )² x R

= 12.83 X 10⁻⁴ X ( current in primary )² x R

ratio of new line power loss to old

= 2.56 / 12.83

= .199
