The turn ratio of the transformer is 40.

<h3 />

<h3>What is a transformer?</h3>

A transformer is an electrical device that is used to step up or step down voltage.

The formula for calculating the turns ratio of a transformer is given below.

<h3> Formula</h3>
  • a = V/v.......... Equation 1

Where:

  • V = Primary voltage
  • v = Secondary voltage
  • a = Turns ratio of the transformer

From the question,

Given:

  • V = 20000 V
  • v = 500 v

Substitute the values above into equation 1

  • a = 20000/500
  • a = 40.

Hence, The turn ratio of the transformer is 40.

The mass luminosity relation L  M 3.5 describes the mathematical relationship between luminosity and mass for main sequence sta
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

(a) <u>11.3 L</u>

(b) <u>10 M</u>

Explanation:

The mass-luminosity relationship states that:

Luminosity ∝ Mass^3.5

Luminosity = (Constant)(Mass)^3.5

So, in order to find the values of luminosity or mass of different stars, we take the luminosity or mass of sun as reference. Therefore, write the equation for a star and Sun, and divide them to get:

Luminosity of a star/L = (Mass of Star/M)^3.5 ______ eqn(1)

where,

L = Luminosity of Sun

M = mass of Sun

(a)

It is given that:

Mass of Star = 2M

Therefore, eqn (1) implies that:

Luminosity of star/L = (2M/M)^3.5

Luminosity of Star = (2)^3.5 L

<u>Luminosity of Star =  11.3 L</u>

(b)

It is given that:

Luminosity of star = 3160 L

Therefore, eqn (1) implies that:

3160L/L = (Mass of Star/M)^3.5

taking ln on both sides:

ln (3160) = 3.5 ln(Mass of Star/M)

8.0583/3.5 = ln(Mass of Star/M)

Mass of Star/M = e^2.302

<u>Mass of Star = 10 M</u>

-- pick a planet from the table

-- take it's mass and radius from the table, and plug them into the big ugly formula above the table

-- do the arithmetic with your pencil or your calculator. The answer is the acceleration of gravity on the planet you picked. Write it down so you don't lose it.

-- do the same for the other 3 planets in the table

A proton is released from rest at the origin in a uniform electric field that is directed in the positive xx direction with magn
elena-s [515]

Answer:

The change in potential energy is  \Delta  PE =  -  3.8*10^{-16} \ J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The  magnitude of the uniform electric field  is  E =  950 \ N/C

      The  distance traveled by the electron is  x =  2.50 \ m

Generally the force on this electron is  mathematically represented as

     F =  qE

Where F is the force and  q is the charge on the electron which is  a constant value of  q =  1.60*10^{-19} \ C

    Thus  

      F  =  950  * 1.60 **10^{-19}

      F  = 1.52 *10^{-16} \ N

Generally the work energy theorem can be mathematically represented as

          W =  \Delta  KE

Where W is the workdone on the electron by the  Electric field and  \Delta  KE  is the change in kinetic energy

Also  workdone on the electron can also  be represented as

        W =  F* x  *cos(  \theta )

Where  \theta  =  0 ^o considering that the movement of the electron is along the x-axis  

        So

             \Delta  KE  =  F  * x  cos  (0)

substituting values

         \Delta  KE  =  1.52 *10^{-16}  * 2.50   cos  (0)

          \Delta  KE   =  3.8*10^{-16} J

Now From the law of energy conservation

       \Delta PE  =  -  \Delta  KE

Where \Delta  PE is the change  in  potential energy  

Thus  

        \Delta  PE =  -  3.8*10^{-16} \ J
