An American traveler in China carries a transformer to convert China's standard 220 V to 120 V so that she can use some small ap

Arisa [49]

Answer:

(a) The ratio of turns in the primary and secondary coils of her transformer is 1.833

(b) The ratio of input to output current is 0.55

(c) To increase the output voltage, you can either increase the number of turns in the secondary coil (step-up) or increase the input current. Therefore, the Chinese person has to increase the input current of the transformer to achieve an increased output voltage that can power her 220 V appliances.

Explanation:

Given;

input voltage, $V_p$ = 220 V

output voltage, $V_s$ = 120 V

General transformer equation is given as;

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

where;

Np is number of turns in the primary coil

Ns is number of turns in the secondary coil

Is - is the secondary current or output current

Ip - is the primary current or input current

(a) The ratio of turns in the primary and secondary coils of her transformer;

$\frac{N_p}{N_s} = \frac{V_p}{V_s} \\\\\frac{N_p}{N_s} = \frac{220}{120} = 1.833$

(b) The ratio of input to output current;

$\frac{I_p}{I_s} = \frac{V_s}{V_p} \\\\\frac{I_p}{I_s} = \frac{120}{220} \\\\\frac{I_p}{I_s} = 0.55$

(c) To increase the output voltage, you can either increase the number of turns in the secondary coil (step-up) or increase the input current. Therefore, the Chinese person has to increase the input current of the transformer to achieve an increased output voltage that can power her 220 V appliances.

What effect or effects would be most significant if the Moon's orbital plane were exactly the same as the ecliptic plane?

Lilit [14]

Answer:

c. Solar eclipses would be much more frequent.

Explanation:

The ecliptic plane is the apparent orbit that the sun describes around the earth (although it is the earth that orbits the sun), is the path the sun follows in earth's sky.

A solar eclipse occurs when the moon gets between the earth and the sun, so a shadow is cast on the earth because the light from the sun is blocked.

The reason why solar eclipses are not very frequent is because the moon's orbital plane is not in the same plane as the orbit of the earth around the sun, but rather that it is somewhat inclined with respect to it.

So if both orbits were aligned, the moon would interpose between the sun and the earth more frequently, producing more solar eclipses.

So, if the moon's orbital plane were exacly the same as the ecliptic plane solar eclipses would be more frequent.

the answer is: c.
