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

A box is at rest on a table. What can you say about the forces acting on the box?
Nikitich [7]
You can tell a lot about an object that's not moving,
and also a lot about the forces acting on it:

==> If the box is at rest on the table, then it is not accelerating.

==> Since it is not accelerating, I can say that the forces on it are balanced.

==> That means that the sum of all forces acting on the box is zero,
and the effect of all the forces acting on it is the same as if there were
no forces acting on it at all.

==> This in turn means that all of the horizontal forces are balanced,
AND all of the vertical forces are balanced.

Horizontal forces:
sliding friction, somebody pushing the box

All of the forces on this list must add up to zero. So ...

(sliding friction force) = (pushing force), in the opposite direction.

If nobody pushing the box, then sliding friction force = zero.

Vertical forces:
gravitational force (weight of the box, pulling it down)
normal force (table pushing the box up)

All of the forces on this list must add up to zero, so ...

(Gravitational force down) + (normal force up) = zero

(Gravitational force down) = -(normal force up) .

Discuss one way in which global warming aggravates the effect of radiation​
alukav5142 [94]
The energy that then radiates out from the surface, longwave radiation, is trapped by the same greenhouse gases, warming the air, oceans, and land. This process, appropriately dubbed “the greenhouse effect,” is how global warming occurs.
