1. At a location in Europe, it is necessary to supply 1000 kW of 60-Hz power. Only power sources available operate at 50 Hz. It

is decided to generate the power by means of a motor-generator set consisting of a 20- pole synchronous motor (its electrical rotating frequency is 50 Hz) driving a synchronous generator. How many poles should the synchronous generator have in order to convert 50-Hz power to 60-Hz power

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

The speed of a synchronous motor in relation to its frequency can be represented with the formula:

n_{sm}= \dfrac{120f_{se}}{P}

where,

the electrical frequency f_{se} is measured in Hz

the number of poles = P

For us to estimate the number of poles to have 50 Hz - 60 Hz Power, then we need to relate the frequencies of the above equation.

i.e

\dfrac{120(50 \ Hz)}{P_1}= \dfrac{120( 60 \Hz)}{P_2} \\ \\ \dfrac{6000 \ Hz}{P_1}= \dfrac{7200 \ Hz}{P_2} \\ \\ \dfrac{P_2}{P_1}=\dfrac{7200}{6000} \\ \\ \\ \dfrac{P_2}{P_1}= \dfrac{12}{10}

Thus, we can conclude that 10 poles synchronous motor is attached with 12 poles synchronous generator in order to convert 50 Hz to 60 Hz power.

What is the weight of a feather (mass = 0.0001 kg) that floats through earth's and the moon's atmospheres?
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Weight = (mass) x (acceleration of gravity)

Acceleration of gravity = 9.81 m/s² on Earth, 1.62 m/s² on the Moon.

The feather's weight is . . .

On Earth:  (0.0001 kg) x (9.81 m/s²) = <em>0.000981 Newton </em>

On the Moon:  (0.0001 kg) x (1.62 m/s²) = <em>0.000162 N</em>

The presence or absence of atmosphere makes no difference.  In fact, the numbers would be the same if the feather were sealed in a jar, or spinning wildly in a tornado, or hanging by a thread, or floating in a bowl of water or chicken soup.  Weight is just the force of gravity between the feather and the Earth.  It's not affected by what's around the feather, or what's happening to it.

A thermosensory neuron in the skin converts heat energy to nerve impulses via a conversion called
Sav [38]

Answer:

Sensory transduction

Explanation:

The term sensory transduction refers to the conversion process where the sensory energy is converted in order to change the potential of a membrane.

In other words, it can defined as the process of energy conversion such that stimulus can be transmitted or received by the sensory receptors and the nervous system may initiate with the sensory receptors.

Transduction takes in all of the five receptors of the body. Thus skin is also one of the receptors and hence conversion of heat energy into impulses takes place with the help of thermo-sensory neuron.

Delilah does 170 Joules of work in 30 seconds. Adam does 260 Joules of work in 20 seconds. Who was more powerful?​
sp2606 [1]

Power = \frac{Work}{Time}

Delilah: 170J/30s = 5.66 W

Adam: 260J/20s = 13 W

A soccer player pumps air into a soccer ball until no more air can be pushed inside. Describe the air inside the soccer ball com
inessss [21]

Answer:

the filling stops when the pressure of the pump equals the pressure of the interior air plus the pressure of the walls.

Explanation:

This exercise asks to describe the inflation situation of a spherical fultball.

Initially the balloon is deflated, therefore the internal pressure is equal to the pressure of the air outside, atmospheric pressure, when it begins to inflate the balloon with a pump this creates a pressure in the inlet valve and as it is greater than the pressure inside, the air enters it, this is repeated in each filling cycle, manual pump.

When the ball is full we have two forces, the one created by the external walls and the one aired by the pressure of the pump, these forces are directed towards the inside, but the air molecules exert a pressure towards the outside, which translates into a force. When these two forces are equal, the pump is no longer able to continue introducing air into the balloon.

Consequently the filling stops when the pressure of the pump equals the pressure of the interior air plus the pressure of the walls.
