Power grid
All the poles and wires you see along the highway and in front of your house are called the electrical transmission and distribution system. Today, generating stations all across the country are connected to each other through the electrical system (sometimes called the "power grid").

Determine the total impedance of an LRC circuit connected to a 10.0- kHz, 725-V (rms) source if L = 36.00 mL, R = 10.00 kΩ, and
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

10042.6 ohm

Explanation:

f = 10 kHz = 10000 Hz, L = 36 mH = 0.036 H, R = 10 kilo Ohm = 10000 ohm

C = 5 nF = 5 x 10^-9 F

XL = 2 x π x f x L

XL = 2 x 3.14 x 10000 x 0.036 = 2260.8 ohm

Xc = 1 / ( 2 x π x f x C) = 1 / ( 2 x 3.14 x 10000 x 5 x 10^-9)

Xc = 3184.7 ohm

Total impedance is Z.

Z^2 = R^2  + (XL - Xc)^2

Z^2 = 10000^2 + ( 2260.8 - 3184.7 )^2

Z = 10042.6 ohm

C'est quoi le lien entre l'atmosphere et les plantes?
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

Les plantes produisent de l'oxygène et ont contribué à faire de la Terre une planète habitable. Grâce au processus de photosynthèse pendant la journée, les plantes absorbent le dioxyde de carbone de l'air, le convertissent en sucre et libèrent de l'oxygène dans l'atmosphère.

Les plantes consomment du dioxyde de carbone - un gaz à effet de serre important - au cours du processus de photosynthèse. La réduction du dioxyde de carbone dans l'atmosphère a un effet de refroidissement indirect. Les plantes refroidissent également l'atmosphère car elles libèrent de la vapeur d'eau lorsqu'elles deviennent chaudes, un processus similaire à la transpiration.

la température, l'humidité et l'intensité lumineuse autour de la plante; la concentration de dioxyde de carbone dans l'air autour des feuilles. La relation est inverse; autrement dit, à mesure que la concentration de CO2 augmente, le nombre de stomates produits diminue, et vice versa.

An electromagnetic wave of intensity 150 W/m2 is incident normally on a rectangular black card with sides of 25 cm and 30 cm tha
LenKa [72]

Answer:

3.75 × 10⁻⁸ N

Explanation:

Given:

Intensity of the electromagnetic wave, I = 150 W/m²

Sides of the board = 25 cm (= 0.25 m) and 30 cm (= 0.30 m)

therefore,

the area of the rectangular box, A = 0.25 × 0.30 = 0.075 m²

Now,

force exerted on the card by the radiation, F = \frac{IA}{C}

here,

C is the speed of the light = 3 × 10⁸ m/s

on substituting the respective values, we get

F = \frac{150\times0.075}{3\times10^8}

or

F = 3.75 × 10⁻⁸ N
