Explain why the National Grid uses step-up and step-down transformers.

Physics
1 answer:
stellarik [79]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Step-up transformers are used at power stations to produce the very high voltages needed to transmit electricity through the National Grid power lines. These high voltages are too dangerous to use in the home, so step-down transformers are used locally to reduce the voltage to safe levels.

A +12 μC charge and -8 μC charge are 4 cm apart. Find the magnitude and direction of the E-field at the point midway between t
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Charge of first Particle q_1=+12\ \mu C

Charge of second Particle q_2=-8\ \mu C

distance between them d=4\ cm

k=9\times 10^{9}

magnetic field due to first charge at mid-way between two charged particles is

E_1=\frac{kq_1}{r^2}

r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{4}{2}=2\ cm

E_1=\frac{9\times 10^9\times 12\times 10^{-6}}{(2\times 10^{-2})^2}

E_1=27\times 10^7\ N/C (away from it)

Electric field due to q_2=-8\ \mu C

E_2=\frac{kq_2}{r^2}

E_2=-\frac{9\times 10^9\times 8\times 10^{-6}}{(2\times 10^{-2})^2}

E_2=-18\times 10^7\ N/C(towards it)

E_{net}=E_1+E_2

E_{net}=9\times 10^7\ N/C(away from first charge)

Are Constellations based on the magnitude of stars.
Nikolay [14]
Constellations are based off of many Greek and Roman fables. Many of their gods and beliefs are pictured in the stars, which is where we get most of our constellations. Hope this helps!
