Answer:

  • branch 1: i = 25.440∠-32.005°; pf = 0.848 lagging
  • branch 2: i = 21.466∠63.435°; pf = 0.447 leading
  • total: i = 31.693∠10.392° leading; pf = 0.984 leading

Explanation:

To calculate the currents in the parallel branches, we need to know the impedance of each branch. That will be the sum of the resistance and reactance.

The inductive reactance is ...

  X_L=j\omega L=j2\pi fL=j100\pi\cdot 15.915\times10^{-3}\approx j4.99984\,\Omega

The capacitive reactance is ...

  X_C=\dfrac{1}{j\omega C}=\dfrac{-j}{100\pi\cdot 318.31\times10^{-6}F}\approx -j10.00000\,\Omega

<u>Branch 1</u>

The impedance of branch 1 is ...

  Z1 = 8 +j4.99984 Ω

so the current is ...

  I1 = V/Z = 240/(8 +j4.99984) ≈ 25.440∠-32.005°

The power factor is cos(-32.005°) ≈ 0.848 (lagging)

<u>Branch 2</u>

The impedance of branch 2 is ...

  Z2 = 5 -j10 Ω

so the current is ...

  I2 = 240/(5 +j10) ≈ 21.466∠63.435°

The power factor is cos(63.436°) ≈ 0.447 (leading)

<u>Total current</u>

The total current is the sum of the branch currents. A suitable calculator can add these vectors without first converting them to rectangular form.

  It = I1 +I2 = (21.573 -j13.483) +(9.6 +j19.2)

  It ≈ 31.173 +j5.717 ≈ 31.693∠10.392°

The power factor for the circuit is cos(10.392°) ≈ 0.984 (leading)

__

The phasor diagram of the currents is attached.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

Given two vectors, their sum can be computed several ways. One way to compute the sum is to use the Law of Cosines. In this application, the angle between the vectors is the supplement of the difference of the vector angles: 84.560°.

A heavy ball with a weight of 150 N is hung from the ceiling of a lecture hall on a 4.0-m-long rope. The ball is pulled to one s
shusha [124]

Answer:

The tension in the rope at the lowest point is 270 N

Explanation:

Given;

weight of the ball, W = 150 N

length of the rope, r = 4 m

velocity of the ball, v = 5.6 m/s

When the ball passes through the lowest point, the tension on the rope is the sum of weight of the ball and centripetal force.

T = W + F

Centripetal force, F = mv²/r

where;

m is the mass of the ball

m = W/g

m = 150 / 9.8 = 15.306 kg

Centripetal force, F = mv²/r

F = (15.306 x 5.6²)/4

F = 120 N

T = W + F

T = 150 + 120

T = 270 N

Therefore, the tension in the rope at the lowest point is 270 N

SashulF [63]

Answer:

the police officer cruise each streets precisely once and he enters and exit with the same gate.

Explanation:

NB: kindly check below for the attached picture.

The term ''Euler circuit'' can simply be defined as the graph that shows the edge of K once in a finite way by starting and putting a stop to it at the same vertex.

The term "Hamiltonian Circuit" is also known as the Hamiltonian cycle which is all about a one time visit to the vertex.

Here in this question, the door is the vertex and the road is the edge.

The information needed to detemine a Euler circuit and a Hamilton circuit is;

"the police officer cruise each streets precisely once and he enters and exit with the same gate."

What is the rated power output in ( kw) of a 8 pole motor designed to an IEC 180L motor frame ?<br>​
ra1l [238]

Answer:

P=11 kW

Explanation:

Given that

Number of poles= 8

I.E.C. 180L motor frame

From data book , for 8 poles motor at 50 Hz

Speed = 730 rpm

Power factor = 0.75

Efficiency at 100 % load= 89.3 %

Efficiency at 50 % load= 89.1 %

Output power = 11 kW

Therefore the rated output power of 8 poles motor will be 11 kW. Thus the answer will be 11 kW.

P=11 kW

. The flexure strength test was performed on a concrete beam having a cross section of 0.15m by 0.15m and a span of 0.45m. If th
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

σ =5.39Mpa

Explanation:

step one:

The flexure strength is defined as the tendency with which unreinforced concrete yield to bending forces

Flexural strength test Flexural strength is calculated using the equation:

σ = FL/ (bd^2 )----------1

Where

σ = Flexural strength of concrete in Mpa

F= Failure load (in N).

L= Effective span of the beam

b= Breadth of the beam

step two:

Given data

F=40.45 kN= 40450N

b=0.15m

d=0.15m

L=0.45m

step three:

substituting into the expression we have

σ = 40450*0.45/ (0.15*0.15^2 )

σ =18202.5/ (0.15*0.15^2 )

σ =18202.5/ (0.15*0.0225 )

σ =18202.5/0.003375

σ =5393333.3

σ =5393333.3/1000000

σ =5.39Mpa

Therefore the flexure strength of the concrete is 5.39Mpa
