An ac generator provides emf to a resistive load in a remote factory over a two-cable transmission line. At the factory a step-

down transformer reduces the voltage from its (rms) transmission value Vt to a much lower value that is safe and convenient for use in the factory. The transmission line resistance is 0.30 /cable, and the power of the generator is 250 kW. If Vt 80 kV, what are (a) the voltage decrease V along the transmission line and (b) the rate Pd at which energy is dissipated in the line as thermal energy

Answer:

a) 1.875 volts

b) 5.86 W

Explanation:

Given data:

transmission line resistance = 0.30/cable

power of the generator = 250 kW

if Vt = 80 kV

<u>a) Determine the decrease V along the transmission line </u>

Rms current in cable = P / Vt = 250 / 80 = 3.125 amps

hence the rms voltage drop ( Δrmsvoltage )

Δrmsvoltage = Irms* R  = 3.125 * 2 * 0.30 =<em> 1.875 volts </em>

<u>b) Determine the rate Pd at which energy is dissipated in line as thermal energy </u>

Pd = I^2rms*R

    =  3.125^2 * 2* 0.30  = <em>5.86 W</em>

an object of mass 6000 kg rests on the flatbed of a truck. it is held in place by metal brackets that can exert a maximum horizo
Otrada [13]

Answer:

minimum stopping distance will be d = 75 m

Explanation:

Maximum force exerted by the bracket is given as

F = 9000 N

now we know that mass of the object is

m = 6000 kg

so the maximum acceleration that truck can have is given as

F = ma

9000 = 6000 a

a = 1.5 m/s^2

now for finding minimum stopping distance of the truck

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2a d

0^2 - 15^2 = 2(-1.5) d

d = 75 m

The weights of soy patties sold by a diner are normally distributed. A random sample of 15 patties yields a mean weight of 3.8 o
shepuryov [24]

Complete Question

The weights of soy patties sold by a diner are normally distributed. A random sample of 15 patties yields a mean weight of 3.8 ounces with a sample standard deviation of 0.5 ounces. At the 0.05 level of significance,perform a hypothesis test to see if the true mean weight is  less than 4 ounce.

Answer:

Yes the true mean weight is less than 4 ounce

Explanation:

  From the question we are told that

     The random sample is n = 15

       The mean weight is \= x = 3.8\  ounce

        The standard deviation is  \sigma = 0.5 \ ounce

         The  level of significance is  \alpha  = 0.05

       

So

   The  null hypothesis is  H_o : \mu \ge 4

     The alternative hypothesis is H_a : \mu < 4

Generally the critical value which a bench mark to ascertain whether the null hypothesis is  true or false is mathematically represented as

            t_{0.05} = 1.79

This value is  obtained from  the critical value table

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

                Test \ Statistics (ST)  = \frac{\= x - \mu }{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }  }

           =>  ST = \frac{3.8 -4 }{\frac{0.5}{\sqrt{20} } }

                ST = - 1.79

So since ST is less than t_{0.05}  then the null hypothesis would be rejected and the alternative hypothesis would be accepted so

  Thus the true mean weight is less than 4

How long must a flute be in order to have a fundamental frequency of 262 Hz (this frequency corresponds to middle C on the evenl
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

L=0.654 m

Explanation:

<u>Concepts and Principles  </u>

1- The speed of sound in air is expressed as a function of the temperature of air as follows:  

 v=(331 m/s)√(1+T_C/273°C)                        (1)

where 331 m/s is the speed of sound in air at temperature 0°C and Tc is the temperature of air in Celsius.  

<u>Standing Wave Patterns in Pipes:  </u>

A pipe open at both ends can have standing wave patterns with resonant frequencies:  

f=v/λ=nv/2L                     n=1,2,3.........

where v is the speed of sound in air.  

<u>Given Data </u>

f_1 (fundamental frequency of the flute) = 262 Hz

T (temperature of the air) = 20°C  

The flute is open at both ends.  

<u>Required Data </u>

We are asked to determine the length of the tube.  

<u>Solution</u><u>  </u>

The speed of sound in air at temperature T = 20°C is found from Equation (1):

 v=(331 m/s)√(1+T_C/273°C)  

 =342.91 m/s

The fundamental frequency of the flute is found by substituting n = 1 into Equation (2):  

f=v/2L

Solve for L:  

L=v/2f_1

L=0.654 m
