A student wants to create a 6.0V DC battery from a 1.5V DC battery. Can this be done using a transformer alone

Answer:

Therefore, we need an invert, and a rectifier, along with the transformer to do the job.

Explanation:

A transformer, alone, can not be used to convert a DC voltage to another DC voltage. If we apply a DC voltage to the primary coil of the transformer, it will act as short circuit due to low resistance. It will cause overflow of current through winding, resulting in overheating pf the transformer.

Hence, the transformer only take AC voltage as an input, and converts it to another AC voltage. So, the output voltage of a transformer is also AC voltage.

So, in order to convert a 6 V DC to 1.5 V DC we need an inverter to convert 6 V DC to AC, then a step down transformer to convert it to 1.5 V AC, and finally a rectifier to convert 1.5 V AC to 1.5 V DC.

<u>Therefore, we need an invert, and a rectifier, along with the transformer to do the job.</u>

A satellite does not need any fuel to revolve around the earth?why​
Nadusha1986 [10]

They don't need gas because satellites rotate around the world using our planet's gravitational force as centripetal force. That as well as since there is no air in space, it doesn't have to work against air resistance. This way it doesn't lose energy by going around and around the Earth.

Hope this helps, have a BLESSED day! :-)

After the elevator accelerates, then it moves at a constant speed of 6.0m/s, calculate the tension inthe cable.
Anon25 [30]

We know that

• The mass of the elevator is 5000 kg.

Let's draw a free-body diagram.

As you can observe, there are just two forces involved, the weight of the elevator and the tension force. Let's use Newton's Second Law.

\begin{gathered} \Sigma F_y=ma_y \\ T-W=ma_y \end{gathered}

But, W = mg = 5000kg*9.8m/s^2 = 49,000 N, and m = 5000 kg, a = 0 (because the speed is constant).

\begin{gathered} T-49,000N=5000\operatorname{kg}\cdot0 \\ T=49,000N \end{gathered}<h2>Therefore, the tension in the cable is 49,000 N.</h2>
