The electrical system that provides power to your school has two major parts: The transmission line which sends power to your lo

cal area and the distribution lines which transmit the power locally. For safety and efficiency, the voltage must be ______________ in the transmission lines and ____________ in the distribution lines.

8 0

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Because of the resistance of transmission lines, high current along the line leads to large voltage drop. This voltage drop causes low efficiency because the voltage at the receiving end is far less than that at the sending end.

Therefore there is need to transmit at a higher voltage (smaller current) than that required by distribution because of efficiency.

Hence, For safety and efficiency, the voltage must be large in the transmission lines and small in the distribution lines.

What can you conclude about the total mechanical energy of a pendulum as it swings back and forth?
Alchen [17]

Answer:

The total mechanical energy of a pendulum is conserved neglecting the friction.

Explanation:

  • When a simple pendulum swings back and forth, it has some energy associated with its motion.
  • The total energy of a simple pendulum in harmonic motion at any instant of time is equal to the sum of the potential and kinetic energy.
  • The potential energy of the simple pendulum is given by P.E = mgh
  • The kinetic energy of the simple pendulum is given by, K.E = 1/2mv²
  • When the pendulum swings to one end, its velocity equals zero temporarily where the potential energy becomes maximum.
  • When the pendulum reaches the vertical line, its velocity and kinetic energy become maximum.
  • Hence, the total mechanical energy of a pendulum as it swings back and forth is conserved neglecting the resistance.

A neon lamp produces what kind of visible spectrum?
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Discrete

Explanation:

There can be many kind of visible spectrum. Some of them are as follows :Infrared,  Continuous , Blackbody  and Discrete.

A neon lamp produces discrete kind of visible spectrum. In this type of spectrum, the spectrum consists of different colors. It means that the neon lamp is made up of different colors or individual frequencies.

Hence, a neon lamp produces discrete visible spectrum.

A car tire rotates at a constant angular velocity of 3.5 rotations during a time interval of 0.75 seconds. What is the angular s
Andru [333]

Answer : \theta = 2.625\ radians

Explanation :  

Given that,

Angular velocity \omega = 3.5\ rad/s

Time t = 0.75 s

We know , the formula of angular velocity

\omega = \dfrac{\theta}{t}

\theta = \omega \times t

\theta = 3.5\ rad/s\times0.75\ s

The angular speed of the tire is

\theta = 2.625\ radians

Hence, this is the required solution.
