A transformer is designed to provide 6 V from a 150 V supply. If the primary coil has 1000 turns, how many turns does the second
zavuch27 [327]
The applicable relationship is N1/N2 = V1/V2, meaning the ratio of primary voltage to secondary voltage is equal to the ratio of primary turns to secondary turns.

Here N1 = 1000, V1 = 250, V2 = 400V and N2 = TBD.

Rewriting the above relationship, N2 = N1 V2/V1 = 1000 x 400/250 = 1600 turns.

Death Star has a diameter of 160,000m and a mass of 5.1e17kg. Millennium Falcon has a mass of 1.36e6kg (data from Wookieepedia)
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

7229 N

Explanation:

The gravitational force between the Death Star and the Millenium Falcon is given by:

F=G\frac{mM}{R^2}

where

G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2} is the gravitational constant

M=5.1\cdot 10^{17} kg is the mass of the Death Star

m=1.36\cdot 10^6 kg is the mass of the Millennium Falcon

R=\frac{160,000 m}{2}=80,000 m is the radius of the Death Star

Substituting numbers into the equation, we find the force

F=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})\frac{(1.36\cdot 10^6 kg)(5.1\cdot 10^{17} kg)}{(80,000 m)^2}=7229 N

In a double‑slit interference experiment, the wavelength is lambda=487 nm , the slit separation is d=0.200 mm , and the screen i
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

Δx = 4.68 x 10⁻³ m = 4.68 mm

Explanation:

The distance between the consecutive maxima, in Young's Double Slit Experiment is given bu the following formula:

Δx = λD/d

So, the distance between the eighth order maximum and the fourth order maximum on the screen will be given as:

Δx = 4λD/d

where,

Δx = distance between eighth order maximum and fourth order maximum=?

λ = wavelength = 487 nm = 4.87 x 10⁻⁷ m

d = slit separation = 0.2 mm = 2 x 10⁻⁴ m

D = Distance between slits and screen = 48 cm = 0.48 m

Therefore,

Δx = (4)(4.87 x 10⁻⁷ m)(0.48 m)/(2 x 10⁻⁴ m)

<u>Δx = 4.68 x 10⁻³ m = 4.68 mm</u>

An RV is traveling 60 km/h along a highway. A boy sitting near the driver of the RV throws a ball to another boy at the back end
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

Speed of the ball relative to the boys: 25 km/h

Speed of the ball relative to a stationary observer: 35 km/h

Explanation:

The RV is travelling at a velocity of

v_{RV}=+60 km/h

Here we have taken the direction of motion of the RV as positive direction.

The boy sitting near the driver throws the ball back with speed of 25 km/h, so the velocity of the ball in the reference frame of the RV is

v_B = -25 km/h

with negative sign since it is travelling in the opposite direction relative to the RV. Therefore, this is the velocity measured by every observer in the reference frame of the RV: so the speed measured by the boys is

v = 25 km/h

Instead, a stationary observer outside the RV measures a velocity of the ball given by the algebraic sum of the two velocities:

v = +60 km/h + (-25 km/h) = +35 km/h

So, he/she measures a speed of 35 km/h.
