Answer:

The inductance of the inductor is 0.051H

Explanation:

From Ohm's law;

  V = IR .................. 1

The inductor has its internal resistance referred to as the inductive reactance, X_{L}, which is the resistance to the flow of current through the inductor.

From equation 1;

V = IX_{L}

X_{L} = \frac{V}{I} ................ 2

Given that; V = 240V, f = 50Hz, \pi = \frac{22}{7}, I = 15A, so that;

From equation 2,

X_{L}= \frac{240}{15}

    = 16Ω

To determine the inductance of the inductor,

X_{L} = 2\pifL

L = \frac{X_{L} }{2 \pi f}

  = \frac{16}{2*\frac{22}{7}*50 }

 = 0.05091

The inductance of the inductor is 0.051H.

A 4KJ of energy is supplied to a machine used for lifting a mass. The force required is 800N. If the machine has an efficiency o
navik [9.2K]

The height at which the mass will be lifted is; 3 meters

<h3>How to utilize efficiency of a machine?</h3>

Formula for efficiency is;

η = useful output energy/input energy

We are given

η = 60% = 0.6

Input energy = 4 KJ = 4000 J

Thus;

0.6 = useful output energy/4000

useful output energy = 0.6 * 4000

useful output energy = 2400 J

Work done in lifting mass(useful output energy) = force * distance moved

Useful output energy = 800 * h

where h is height to lift mass

Thus;

800h = 2400

h = 2400/800

h = 3 meters

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

A bona fide occupational qualification defense

Explanation:

Since the store is for women clothing, the retail may prefer to employ only female to assist the customers.  Under a bona fide occupational qualification defense, an employer is allowed to discriminate if a characteristic is a necessity for the performance of the job and for the business. Therefore, the store has a bona fide occupational qualification defense.

You are riding in an elevator that is going up at 10 ft/s. You are holding your cell phone 5 ft above the floor when it suddenly
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

It falls at the same speed in both cases.

Explanation:

If I were standing still the phone would be in free fall after slipping out of my hand.

I set a frame of reference with origin on the ground and the positive Y axis pointing up.

It would slip at t0 = 0, from a position Y0 = 5 ft, with a speed of Vy0 = 0.

It would be subject to an gravitational acceleration of -32.2 ft/s^2.

Since acceleration is constant:

Y(t) = Y0 + Vy0 * t + 1/2 * 4 * t^2

When it hits the floor at t1 it will be at Y(t1) = 0

0 = 5 + 0 * t1 - 16.1 * t1^2

16.1 * t1^2 = 5

t1^2 = 5 / 16.1

t1 = \sqrt{0.31} = 0.55 s

If the elevator is standing still it would take 0.55 s to hit the ground.

Now, if the elevator is moving up at 10 ft/s.

The frame of reference will have its origin at the place the floor of the elevator is at t = 0, and stay there as the elevetor moves. The floor of trhe elevator will have a position of Ye = 10 * t

Vy0 = 10 ft/s because it will be moving initially at the same speed as the elevator.

And it will hit the floor of the elevator not at 0, but at

Ye = 10 * t2

So:

10 * t2 = 5 + 10 * t2 - 16.1 * t2^2

0 = 5 - 16.1 * t2^2

16.1 * t1^2 = 5

t1^2 = 5 / 16.1

t1 = \sqrt{0.31} = 0.55 s

It falls at the same speed in both cases.

A vertical piston-cylinder assembly contains water. The piston has a mass of 2 kg and a diameter of 7 cm . Assume atmospheric pr
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

for a) F= 744.97 N

for a) F= 167.85 N

for a) F= 764.57 N

Explanation:

the pressure developed by the piston should be higher than the saturated vapor pressure of water for boiling point at T=120 to ensure boiling.

Then from steam tables

T= 120°C → P required=Pr= 198.67 kPa

then the pressure developed by the piston is

P = (m*g + F)/A

where m= mass of the piston ,g= gravity F= force required and A= area of the piston

then

Pr = P = (m*g + F)/A

F = Pr*A-m*g

since A= π/4*D²

F =π/4* Pr*D²-m*g

replacing values

F =π/4* Pr*D²-m*g = π/4*198.67  *10³Pa*(0.07m)² -2kg* 9.8m/s²

F= 744.97 N

b) for T₂=80°C → Pr₂=47.41 kPa

F₂ =π/4* Pr₂*D²-m*g = π/4*47.41*10³Pa*(0.07m)² -2kg* 9.8m/s²

F₂= 167.85 N

c) for m=0 (mass of the piston neglected) ,the force required is

F₃ =π/4*Pr*D² =  π/4*198.67 *10³Pa*(0.07m)²= 764.57 N

F₃ =764.57 N
