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>

Astar is 10 light years away from the earth. Suppose it brightens up suddenly today, after how long can we see this change?
Blababa [14]

The phrase "light year" is a <u><em>distance</em></u> ... it's the distance that light travels through vacuum in one year.

When you look at an object located 1 light year away from you, you see it as it was 1 year ago.

If a star located 10 light years away from us suddenly brightens, or dims, or explodes, we see the event <em>10 years later.</em>

Which mathematical formula would you use to calculate the IMA of a wheel?
coldgirl [10]

W = F x D

The work you put into a machine -- the input force -- is the force you apply times the distance you apply it. The work done by the machine equals the resisting weight times the distance it moves when you perform the work.
