120 volt divided by 22 ampere
= 5.4545454545455 ohm (Ω)
P = V × I
= 120 volt × 22 ampere
= 2640 watt (W)

Charging method .Constant current method

mina [271]

Answer:

There are three common methods of charging a battery; constant voltage, constant current and a combination of constant voltage/constant current with or without a smart charging circuit.

Constant voltage allows the full current of the charger to flow into the battery until the power supply reaches its pre-set voltage. The current will then taper down to a minimum value once that voltage level is reached. The battery can be left connected to the charger until ready for use and will remain at that “float voltage”, trickle charging to compensate for normal battery self-discharge.

Constant current is a simple form of charging batteries, with the current level set at approximately 10% of the maximum battery rating. Charge times are relatively long with the disadvantage that the battery may overheat if it is over-charged, leading to premature battery replacement. This method is suitable for Ni-MH type of batteries. The battery must be disconnected, or a timer function used once charged.

Constant voltage / constant current (CVCC) is a combination of the above two methods. The charger limits the amount of current to a pre-set level until the battery reaches a pre-set voltage level. The current then reduces as the battery becomes fully charged. The lead acid battery uses the constant current constant voltage (CC/CV) charge method. A regulated current raises the terminal voltage until the upper charge voltage limit is reached, at which point the current drops due to saturation.

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

a) 3581.15067 kw

b) 95.4%

Explanation:

<u>Given data:</u>

compressor efficiency = 85%

compressor pressure ratio = 10

Air enters at: flow rate of 5m^3/s , pressure = 100kPa, temperature = 300 K

At turbine inlet : pressure = 950 kPa, temperature = 1400k

Turbine efficiency = 88% , exit pressure of turbine = 100 kPa

A) Develop a full accounting of the exergy increase of the air passing through the gas turbine combustor in kW

Varvara68 [4.7K]

The question is not complete. We are supposed to find the average value of v_o.

Answer:

v_o,avg = 0.441V

Explanation:

Let t1 and t2 be the start and stop times of the output waveforms. Thus, from the diagram i attached, using similar triangles, we have;

3/(T/4) = 0.7/t1

So, 12/T = 0.7/t1

So, t1 = 0.7T/12

t1 = 0.0583 T

Also, from symmetry of triangles,

t2 = T/2 - t1

So, t2 = T/2 - 0.0583 T

t2 = 0.4417T

Average of voltage output is;

v_o,avg = (1/T) x Area under small triangle

v_o,avg = (1/T) x (3 - 0.7) x (T/4 - t1)

v_o,avg = (1/T) x (2.3) x (T/4 - 0.0583 T)

v_o,avg = (1/T) x 2.3 x 0.1917T

T will cancel out to give;

v_o,avg = 0.441V
