The charger for your electronic devices is a transformer. Suppose a 60 Hz outlet voltage of 120 V needs to be reduced to a devic

e voltage of 3.0 V. The side of the transformer attached to the electronic device has 45 turns of wire.
Part A


How many turns are on the side that plugs into the outlet?


N = turns

Answer:

NP=180Turns

Explanation:

Step one :

Given data

VP = the primary voltage. 120volts

VS = the secondary voltage. 30volts

NP = the number of turns in the primary winding.???

NS = the number of turns in the secondary winding. 45 turns

Step two :

Using the formula

NP/NS = VP/VS

NP/45 = 120/30

multiplying both sides by 45 to make NP subject of formula we have

NP=(120/30)*45

NP=(4)*45

NP=180Turns

A transformer is an electrical apparatus designed to convert alternating current from one voltage to another. It can be designed to "step up" or "step down" voltages and works on the magnetic induction principle.

There are two types of transformers

Step up transformer

Step down transformer

Answer:

180 turns

Explanation:

Transformer: A transformer is an electrical device that operates based on the principle of electromagnetic induction.

Using

Ns/Np = Vs/Vp.............................. Equation 1

Where Ns = Number of turns in the secondary coil, Np = Number of turns in the primary coil, Vs = Voltage in the secondary coil, Vp = Voltage in the primary coil

Make Np the subject of the equation

Np = Ns(Vp/Vs)................... Equation 2

Given: Ns = 45 turns, Vp = 120 V, Vs = 30 V

Substitute into equation 2

Np = 45(120/30)

Np = 180 turns.

Answer:

how large a magnetic field would you experience = 8.16 x 10∧-4T

Explanation:

I = 20KA = 20,000A

r = 4.9 m

how large a magnetic field would you experience =  u.I/2πr

how large a magnetic field would you experience = (4π x10∧-7) × 20000/2π × 4.9

how large a magnetic field would you experience = 8.16 x 10∧-4T

In which direction does the electric field point at a position directly north of a positive charge?
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

B. South

Explanation:

An electric field can be defined as the amount of electric force per unit charge. The direction of the electric field can be determined by the motion of a positive test charge under the electric force.

The direction of electric field is radially outward for a positive charge and radially inward for a negative charge. Thus, for the electric field points toward SOUTH at a position directly south of a positive charge.

A vacuum gage connected to a chamber reads 39 kPa at a location where the atmospheric pressure is 92 kPa. Determine the absolute
Nata [24]

Answer: 53 kPa

Explanation:

Absolute pressure is a pressure value referred to absolute zero or vacuum. This value indicates the total pressure to which a body or system (the chamber in this situation) is subjected, considering the total pressure acting on it.

In this sense, the equation that will be useful in this case is:

P_{atmospheric}= P_{absolute} + P_{vacuum}  (1)

Where:

P_{atmospheric}=92 kPa is the atmospheric pressure

P_{vacuum}=39 kPa is the vacuum pressure

P_{absolute} is the absolute pressure

Isolating P_{absolute}  from (1):

P_{absolute}=P_{atmospheric} - P_{vacuum}  (2)

P_{absolute}=92 kPa - 39 kPa  (3)

Finally:

P_{absolute}=53 kPa=53(10)^{3} Pa This is the absolute pressure in the chamber
