Calculate the amount of current flowing through a 75-watt light bulb that is connected to a 120-volt circuit in your home.

Engineering
1 answer:
vodomira [7]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

I = 0.625 A

Explanation:

Given that,

Power of the light bulb, P = 75 W

Voltage of the circuit, V = 120 V

We need to find the current flowing through it. We know that, Power is given by :

P=V\times I

I is the electric current

I=\dfrac{P}{V}\\\\I=\dfrac{75\ W}{120\ V}\\\\I=0.625\ A

So, the current is 0.625 A.

Estimate the endurance strength, Se, of a 37.5-mm- diameter rod of AISI 1040 steel having a machined finish and heat-treated to
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

endurance length is 236.64 MPa

Explanation:

data given:

d = 37.5 mm

Sut = 760MPa

endurance limit is

Se = 0.5 Sut

   = 0.5*760 = 380 MPa

surface factor is

Ka = a*Sut^b

where

Sut is ultimate strength

for AISI 1040 STEEL

a = 4.51, b = -0.265

Ka = 4.51*380^{-0.265}

Ka = 0.93

size factor is given as

Kb =1.29 d^{-0.17}

Kb = 0.669

Se = Sut *Ka*Kb

    = 380*0.669*0.93

Se = 236.64 MPa

therefore endurance length is 236.64 MPa

5. One of the major road blocks for direct DC power in residences is the ___. A) generation of DC B) lack of standardization C)
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

D) quantity of components required for this type of system

Explanation:

Electricity can be transmitted using the alternating and direct currents. The alternating current is one in which the flow of the current diverts at certain time intervals whereas, the direct current is one in which there is a constant one-directional flow of current. The DC is used in batteries and solar panels. Residential areas and business places make use of the AC current.

One of the several reasons why the DC is not used in homes is because unlike the AC it is not easy to build and sustain. Moreso, it has more components compared to the AC. For example, its motor consists of brushes and commutators . The components, example, switches are also large compared to the AC components.

Tech A says that 18 AWG wire is larger than 12 AWG wire. Tech B says that the larger the diameter of the conductor, the more ele
shutvik [7]

Answer:

Both of them are wrong

Explanation:

The two technicians have given the wrong information about the wires.

This is because firstly, a higher rating of AWG means it is smaller in diameter. Thus, the diameter of a 18 AWG wire is smaller than that of a 12 AWG wire and that makes the assertion of the technician wrong.

Also, the higher the resistance, the smaller the cross sectional area meaning the smaller the diameter. A wire with bigger cross sectional area will have a smaller resistance

So this practically makes the second technician wrong too
