An ideal step-down transformer is needed to reduce a primary voltage of 120 V to 6.0 V. What must be the ratio of the number of

turns in the secondary to the number of turns in the primary

Answer:

$N_s : N_p = 20 : 1$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The primary voltage is $V_p = 120 \ V$

The secondary voltage is $V_s = 6 \ V$

Generally from the transformer equation we have that

$\frac{V_p}{V_s} = \frac{N_p}{N_s}$

So

$\frac{120}{6} = \frac{N_p}{N_s}$

=> $\frac{N_p}{N_s} = 20$

Therefore the ratio of the number of turns in the secondary to the number of turns in the primary is

$N_s : N_p = 20 : 1$

1 A 75-g ball is projected from a height of 1.6 m with a horizontal velocity of 2 m/s and bounces from a 400-g smooth plate supp

Tanzania [10]

Answer with explanation:

We are given that

Mass of ball, $m_1=$ 75 g= $\frac{75}{1000}=0075kg$

1 kg=1000 g

Height, $h_1=1.6 m$

$h_2=0.6 m$

Horizontal velocity, $v_x=2 m/s$

Mass of plate $m_2=400 g=\frac{400}{1000}=0.4 kg$

a.Initial velocity of plate, $u_2=0$

Velocity before impact= $u_1=\sqrt{2gh_1}=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 1.6}=5.6m/s$

Where $g=9.8 m/s^2$

Velocity after impact, $v_1=\sqrt{2gh_2}=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 0.6}=3.4m/s$

According to law of conservation of momentum

$m_1u_1+m_2u_1=-m_1v_1+m_2v_2$

Substitute the values

$0.075\times 5.6+0=-0.075\times 3.4+0.4v_2$

$0.4v_2=0.075\times 5.6+0.075\times 3.4$

$v_2=\frac{0.075\times 5.6+0.075\times 3.4}{0.4}=1.69 m/s$

Velocity of plate=1.69 m/s

b.Initial energy= $\frac{1}{2}m_1v^2_x+m_1gh_1=\frac{1}{2}(0.075)(2^2)+0.075\times 9.8\times 1.6=1.326 J$

Final energy= $\frac{1}{2}m_1v^2_x+m_1gh_2+\frac{1}{2}m_2v^2_2$

Final energy= $\frac{1}{2}(0.075)(2^2)+0.075\times 9.8\times 0.6+\frac{1}{2}(0.4)(1.69)^2=1.162 J$

Energy lost due to compact=Initial energy-final energy=1.326-1.162=0.164 J

A toy rocket, launched from the ground, rises vertically with an acceleration of 28 m/s 2 for 9.7 s until its motor stops. Disre

vredina [299]

Answer:

5080.86m

Explanation:

We will divide the problem in parts 1 and 2, and write the equation of accelerated motion with those numbers, taking the upwards direction as positive. For the first part, we have:

$y_1=y_{01}+v_{01}t+\frac{a_1t^2}{2}$

$v_1=v_{01}+a_1t$

We must consider that it's launched from the ground ( $y_{01}=0m$ ) and from rest ( $v_{01}=0m/s$ ), with an upwards acceleration $a_{1}=28m/s^2$ that lasts a time t=9.7s.

We calculate then the height achieved in part 1:

$y_1=(0m)+(0m/s)t+\frac{(28m/s^2)(9.7s)^2}{2}=1317.26m$

And the velocity achieved in part 1:

$v_1=(0m/s)+(28m/s^2)(9.7s)=271.6m/s$

We do the same for part 2, but now we must consider that the initial height is the one achieved in part 1 ( $y_{02}=1317.26m$ ) and its initial velocity is the one achieved in part 1 ( $v_{02}=271.6m/s$ ), now in free fall, which means with a downwards acceleration $a_{2}=-9,8m/s^2$ . For the data we have it's faster to use the formula $v_f^2=v_0^2+2ad$ , where d will be the displacement, or difference between maximum height and starting height of part 2, and the final velocity at maximum height we know must be 0m/s, so we have:

$v_{02}^2+2a_2(y_2-y_{02})=v_2^2=0m/s$

Then, to get $y_2$ , we do:

$2a_2(y_2-y_{02})=-v_{02}^2$

$y_2-y_{02}=-\frac{v_{02}^2}{2a_2}$

$y_2=y_{02}-\frac{v_{02}^2}{2a_2}$

And we substitute the values:

$y_2=y_{02}-\frac{v_{02}^2}{2a_2}=(1317.26m)-\frac{(271.6m/s)^2}{2(-9.8m/s^2)}=5080.86m$

Group elements number 11 to 20 as either metallic, non metallic or metalloid.

bija089 [108]

Answer:

The elements are grouped into the different substances by color. As you can see, Lithium, Beryllium, Sodium, Magnesium, Aluminum, Potassium, and Calcium are metals out of the first 20 elements.

Hydrogen, Helium, Carbon, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Fluorine, Neon, Phosphorus, Sulfur, Chlorine, and Argon, are non-metals within the first 20 elements.

Boron and Silicon count as Metalloids in the Periodic Table (properties of both metals and non-metals)
