Answer: Current = 2 A

Explanation:

Given that an electrical power plant generates electricity with a

current I = 50 A

Potential difference V = 20 000 V

The resistance R will be achieved by Ohms law formula which state that

V = IR

But the power generated will be the product of potential difference and the current

Power P = IV

P = 50 × 20000

P = 1, 000000 W

When the transformer steps up the potential difference to 500 000 V before it is transmitted

Power is always constant.

Using the formula for power again with

V = 500000

1000000 = 500000× I

Make I the subject of formula

Current I = 1000000/500000

Current I = 2 A

Now consider a wave which is paired with seven other waves into seven pairs. The two waves in each pairing are identical, except
kupik [55]

The pair BCEG will interfere constructively, while the pair ADF will interfere destructively.

Constructive and destructive interference:

For interference, the waves must be coherent.

Two coherent waves interfere constructively when the path difference is equal to an integral multiple of the wavelength.

That is the path difference must be mλ

where m = 0,1,2,3.... is an integer and λ is the wavelength

So pair BCEG interfere constructively

Two coherent waves interfere destructively when the path difference is equal to a half-integral multiple of the wavelength.

That is the path difference must be (m+1/2)λ

where m = 0,1,2,3....   is an integer and λ is the wavelength

Therefore, the interference is in the pair ADF which is interfere destructively.

[NOTE: THE COMPLETE QUESTION IS:

Now consider a wave which is paired with seven other waves into seven pairs. The two waves in each pairing are identical, except that one of them is shifted relative to the other in the pair by the distance shown: A. -(1/2) ?B. 2?C. -5?D. (3/2)?E. 0F. (17/2)?G. (6/2)?Identify which of the seven pairs will interfere constructively and which will interfere destructively. Each letter represents a pair of waves. Enter the letters of the pairs that correspond to constructive interference in alphabetical order and the letters of the pairs that correspond to pairs that interfere destructively in alphabetical order separated by a comma. For example if pairs A, B and D interfere constructively and pairs C and F interfere destructively enter ABD,CF.]
