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.

A car is strapped to a rocket (combined mass = 661 kg), and its kinetic energy is 66,120 J.
aliina [53]

Answer:

9.43 m/s

Explanation:

First of all, we calculate the final kinetic energy of the car.

According to the work-energy theorem, the work done on the car is equal to its change in kinetic energy:

W=K_f - K_i

where

W = -36.733 J is the work done on the car (negative because the car is slowing down, so the work is done in the direction opposite to the motion of the car)

K_f is the final kinetic energy

K_i = 66,120 J is the initial kinetic energy

Solving,

K_f = K_i + W = 66,120 + (-36,733)=29,387 J

Now we can find the final speed of the car by using the formula for kinetic energy

K_f = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m = 661 kg is the mass of the car

v is its final speed

Solving for v, we find

v=\sqrt{\frac{2K_f}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(29,387)}{661}}=9.43 m/s

Andru [333]

Answer:

a. k = (1/k₁ + 1/k₂)⁻¹ b. k = (1/k₁ + 1/k₂ + 1/k₃)⁻¹

Explanation:

Since only one force F acts, the force on spring with spring constant k₁ is F = k₁x₁ where x₁ is its extension

the force on spring with spring constant k₂ is F = k₂x₂ where x₁ is its extension

Let F = kx be the force on the equivalent spring with spring constant k and extension x.

The total extension , x = x₁ + x₂

x = F/k = F/k₁ + F/k₂

1/k = 1/k₁ + 1/k₂

k = (1/k₁ + 1/k₂)⁻¹

B

The force on spring with spring constant k₃ is F = k₃x₃ where x₃ is its extension

Let F = kx be the force on the equivalent spring with spring constant k and extension x.

The total extension , x = x₁ + x₂ + x₃

x = F/k = F/k₁ + F/k₂ + F/k₃

1/k = 1/k₁ + 1/k₂ + 1/k₃

k = (1/k₁ + 1/k₂ + 1/k₃)⁻¹
