What is the electrical consumption in KVA of a motor powered by a 3-phase, 60 Hz, 460 VAC supply that continuously draws 17 A

Answer:

15.34 kVA

Explanation:

A motor is a device that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. It takes in electrical energy at the input and produce torque (motion) at the output.

The power consumption for a three phase motor is the product of voltage and current and √3. The √3 is because it is a three phase supply.

Hence Power (P) =√3 × voltage (V) × current (I)

P = √3 × V × I

Given that voltage (V) = 460 V, current (I) = 17 A. Hence:

P = √3 × V × I = √3 × 460 × 17 = 13544.64 VA

But 1000 VA = 1 kVA. Hence:

P=13544.64\ VA*\frac{1\ kVA}{1000\ VA}=13.54\ kVA

The table below shows the right ascensions of two stars at a location.
noname [10]
Star 1 - 4 hours right ascension
 Star 2 - 3 hours right ascension
 Subtracting hours right ascension
 4 hours right ascension - 3 hours right ascension = 1 hours right ascension.
Thus,
 star 1 will rise 1 hour before star 2

Which of the following choices defines energy in scientific terms?
snow_tiger [21]
1) B. Energy is the ability to do work

2) C. Energy is conserved, it just goes from one form to another.

3) Work = Force x displacement
= 300 x 100 = 30,000 Joules

4) leaning a brick because no displacement is taking place.

5) They change the amount/strength or direction of the force needed.

6) Less force is needed and applied over a longer distance.

7) Heat is the flow of thermal energy from one object to another.

A magnetically soft material is placed in a strong magnetic feild. what is the most likely outcome?
myrzilka [38]
So we want to know what will happen if we put a magnetically soft material in a strong magnetic field. A magnetically soft material is a material whose magnetic field can easily be reversed. Those are ferromagnetic materials. Iron is such a material. When a magnetically soft material is placed into a strong magnetic field it gets its own magnetic field. But its not a permanent magnetic field, it can be changed by a different strong magnetic field.

You are pushing a rock along level ground and making the rock speed up. How does the size of the force you exert on the rock com
Aneli [31]

Answer:

The forces are of the same magnitude just opposite directions

Explanation:

Newton's Third law tells us that if body A exerts a force on body B, then B exerts an equal but opposite force on body B. so as you continue to push the rock causing it to accelerate, the rock also continues to push back at you by an equal force in the opposite direction.

Tech A says that as engines gain miles, the spark plug gap increases, which raises the ignition system’s available voltage. Tech
Ugo [173]

Answer: Tech A is correct

Explanation:

Every vehicle has ignition system and without this system,it will not work. The battery of everything vehicle contain energy that start the vehicle and ignore it to start working. Electrical current move from the vehicle's battery and get to the induction coil, the induction coil increases the voltage in it so that the plug will be ignited. The spark plugs produce fire. The spark plug is connected to the ignition system. Once voltage is produced from the induction coil, electrical impulses move from induction coil to insulated plug wires. The spark plug need a very high voltage from the small voltage battery. Once the high voltage exceed the dielectric strength of the gases, spark jump the gap between the plug's fire end.
