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:

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

A swinging pendulum has a total energy of <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_i" id="TexFormula1" title="E_i" alt="E_i" align="a

Answer:

$\frac{E_{2}}{E_{1}} \approx 1 -\frac{3\theta}{1-\theta}$ (for small oscillations)

Explanation:

The total energy of the pendulum is equal to:

$E_{1} = m\cdot g \cdot (1-\cos \theta)\cdot L$

For small oscillations, the equation can be re-arranged into the following form:

$E_{1} \approx m\cdot g \cdot (1-\theta) \cdot L$

Where:

$\theta = \frac{A}{L^{2}}$ , measured in radians.

If the amplitude of pendulum oscillations is increase by a factor of 4, the angle of oscillation is $4\theta$ and the total energy of the pendulum is:

$E_{2} \approx m\cdot g \cdot (1-4\theta)\cdot L$

The factor of change is:

$\frac{E_{2}}{E_{1}} \approx \frac{1 - 4\theta}{1-\theta}$

$\frac{E_{2}}{E_{1}} \approx 1 -\frac{3\theta}{1-\theta}$

The greater the mass is in an object, the higher resistance to a change in movement the object will have.

Bond [772]

True. Since Inertia states this law, we are bound to believe greater mass = greater resistance in change of motion

Humans first traveled to the Moon in a spacecraft in 1969. What happened as the spacecraft traveled farther from Earth?

horsena [70]

Answer:

The answer is C)The force of gravity from Earth acting on the spacecraft decreased because the distance from Earth increased.

Explanation:

Gravity, a force, is dependent on the mass of the object exerting the gravity and the distance of an outside object from that object. The larger the object, the more gravity it will exert on an outside object. This force decreases as you move away from the object, but it will always still exist and never be equal to 0.
