Answer:

Resultant speed = 12 km/h.

Bearing is 107.14 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be represented by a triangle of velocities with lengths 15 and 5 with the included angle = 45 degrees.

To find the velocity of the resultant  we use cosine rule:

v^2 = 15^2 + 5^2 - 2*5*15cos 45

v^2 = 143.934

v = 12.0 km/h to the nearest tenth.

To find the bearing we use the sine rule to find the angle down from due east>

12 / sin 45 = 5/ sin x

sin x =  5 sin 45 / 12 = 0.2946278

x = 17.14 degrees.

Bearing is therefore 90 + 17.14 = 107.14 degrees.

If those two are your only choices then the answer is none of the above. 

<em>Attached is a cumulative frequency table for your data.</em>

If you take a look at the two tables given, the frequencies were not tallied properly. If the frequency column is wrong, then the cumulative frequency will be wrong. 

The answer is then none of the above or find one that matches the table attached.

A transformer increases the input voltage from 12V to 12,000V. What is the ratio of the number of wire turns on the primary coil
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

\frac{n_p}{n_s}=\frac{1}{1000}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given voltage of primary coil is V_p=12V

And voltage of secondary coil is V_s=12,000V

A transformer is a device that contains primary and secondary coil. These coils are mounted on soft iron. The change in voltage depends upon the number of turns of primary coil (n_p) and secondary coil (n_s).

Following equation represents the relation between them.

\frac{V_s}{V_p} =\frac{n_s}{n_p}\\\\\frac{12,000}{12}=\frac{n_s}{n_p}\\\\1000=\frac{n_s}{n_p}

Then, ratio of the number of wire turns on the primary coil to the number of turns on the secondary coil is

\frac{n_p}{n_s}=\frac{1}{1000}

How can you tell two values are in a proportional relationship?<br> 100 points please help!!
enot [183]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

One way to see if two ratios are proportional is to write them as fractions and then reduce them. If the reduced fractions are the same, your ratios are proportional.
