Answer:

Each layer has its own properties, composition, and characteristics that affects many of the key processes of our planet. They are, in order from the exterior to the interior – the crust, the mantle, the outer core, and the inner core.

A plane flies at 400 north of East for 150 miles,then flies 200 miles at an angle of 150 west of North. What is the plane's fina
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

341.46miles

Explanation:

Find the diagram attachment.

To get the displacement D, we will use the cosine rule as shown;

D² = 200²+150²-2(160)(400)cos65°

D² = 40000+22500-128000cos65°

D² = 62500+54095.14

D² = 116595.14

D = √116595.14

D= 341.46 miles

Hence the plane final displacement is 341.46miles

Why does the value of g vary from place to place?
NemiM [27]

Answer:

The variation in apparent gravitational acceleration (g) at different locations on Earth is caused by two things (as you implied). ... The distance between the centers of mass of two objects affects the gravitational force between them, so the force of gravity on an object is smaller at the equator compared to the poles.

Determine the voltage ratings of the high-and-low voltage windings for this connection and the MVA rating of the autotransformer
SIZIF [17.4K]

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

a

The High Voltage Rating for Auto - Transformer is 86kV

The  Low Voltage Rating for Auto - Transformer is 78kV

The MVA rating is 268.75MVA

b

The efficiency is 99.4%

Explanation:

From the question  we are given are given that

 The transformer has Mega Volt Amp rating of 25MVA

                          The frequency is 60-Hz

                           Voltage rating 8.0kV : 78kV

   The short circuit test gives : 453kV,321A,77.5kW

   The open circuit test gives : 8.0kV, 39.6A, 86.2kW

This can be represented on a diagram shown on the second uploaded image

From this diagram we can deduce that the The High Voltage Rating for Auto - Transformer is 86kV and the  Low Voltage Rating for Auto - Transformer is 78kV

 Now to obtain the current flowing through the 8kV  coil in the Auto-transformer we have

             \frac{25 \ Mega \ Volt\ Ampere }{8\ Kilo Volt}

The volt will cancel each other

             \frac{25*10^6}{8*10^3} =  3125\ A

 Now to obtain the required MVA rating we would multiply the value of Power obtained during the open circuit test by the value of the current calculated.we are making use of the power obtain during open circuit testing because the transformer at this point is not under any load.

MVA \ rating = (86*10^3)(3125) =268.75

We need to understand that Iron losses is due to open circuit test which has power = 86.2kW

While copper loss is due to short circuit test which has power = 77.5kW

The the current flowing through the secondary coil I_2 as shown in the circuit diagram can be obtained as

       I_2 = \frac{25*10^6}{78*10^3} =320.52 A \approx 321

Now the efficiency can be obtained as thus

           \frac{(operational \ MVA )*(Power factor \pf))}{(operational\  MVA (power factor pf) + copper loss + Iron loss)}*\frac{100}{1}

             =99.941%

A 12-kg hammer strikes a nail at a velocity of 8.5 m/s and comes to rest in a time interval of 8.0 ms. (A) What is the impulse g
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

102 kg.m/s

Explanation:

m = Mass of hammer = 12 kg

v = Final velocity = 8.5 m/s

u = Initial velocity = 0

t = Time taken = 8 ms

Force acting over a given amount of time or change in momentum is known as impulse.

Impulse

J=Ft\\\Rightarrow J=p_2-p_1\\\Rightarrow J=m(v-u)\\\Rightarrow J=12(8.5-0)\\\Rightarrow J=102\kg.m/s

Impulse given to the nail is 102 kg.m/s
