A transformer is to be used to provide power for a computer disk drive that needs 6.0 V (rms) instead of the 120 V (rms) from th

e wall outlet. The number of turns in the primary is 400, and it delivers 500 mA (the secondary current) at an output voltage of 6.0 V (rms). Find the number of turns in the secondary.

Answer:

N_{2}=20 turns

Explanation:

The given case is a step down transformer as we need to reduce 120 V to 6 V.

number of turns on primary coil N_{P}= 400

current delivered by  secondary coil  I_{S}= 500 mA

output voltage = 6 V (rms)

we know that

I_{p}=\frac{V_{out}}{V_{in}\times I_{s}}

putting values we get

I_{p}=\frac{6}{120\times 0.5}

I_{p}= 0.1 A

to calculate number of turns in secondary

\frac{N_{2}}{400} =\frac{6}{120}

therefore, N_{2}=20 turns

Electrons flow from the negative terimal of a
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

The electrons flow from negative terminal of a battery to the positive terminal because as the charge of electron is negative, it will get repelled by the negative terminal of the battery

Conventional flow actually assumes that the current flows out of the positive terminal, through the circuit and into the negative terminal of the battery

It actually says that direction of flow of current is in opposite direction to the direction of flow of electrons

The direction of current will not change even a resistor is placed in the circuit and it generates a potential difference across the resistor

But the current tries to move in such a way in which there will be less resistance to the flow

What causes the spiral structural in milky way?
Mrac [35]
The spiral structure of the milky way can be explained by long lived quasi-static density waves<em>, </em><em>according to the lin-shu hypothesis. </em>Curiously, the waves of higher density gas and stars (seen as spiral arms) appear to remain static as stars move around the galaxy. This explained by assuming that the gravitational disturbances cause by the 'clumping' material in the arms does not affect the gravitational field of the galaxy as whole and is therefore negligible.

Work is done on a locked door that remains closed while you try to pull it open. True False.
dsp73

Answer:False

Explanation:

Work is being done on a body when it causes displacement of body on the application of force

Work\ done=Force\times displacement

When we pull the door by a force it causes zero displacements of the door. So we can say that work done on it is zero.

Thus the above-given statement is false

You can enter compound units that are combinations of other units that are multiplied together.Torque can be calculated by multi
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

3.0 x 10¹ Nm

Explanation:

Torque = F x r

Where F is force applied and r is perpendicular distance from pivot point . r

is also called lever arm

Here F = 15 N and r = 2.0 m

Torque

= 15 N X 2.0 m

= 3.0 10¹ Nm.
