Why does a transformer require alternating volt age?
1. Alternating voltage leads to electromagnetic induction which is necessary for the transformer to work.
2. Due to economic reasons; alternating voltage is cheaper to produce.
3. If we apply a constant. voltage to the primary coil, it will burn out due to short circuit.
4. No specific reason; the constant voltage would work just as well.
5. The magnetic field produced by the primary coil can reach the secondary coil more easily.
6. Energy can be transferred more efficiently if alternating voltage is used.
Answer:
Alternating voltage leads to electromagnetic induction which is necessary for the transformer to work.
Explanation:
According to Oxford dictionary; an alternating current is "an electric current that reverses its direction many times a second at regular intervals".
A transformer works on the principle of electromagnetic induction. A transformer requires an alternating current which can create a changing magnetic field leading to induced voltage in the coil.
Hence, a transformer requires alternating voltage because alternating voltage leads to electromagnetic induction which is necessary for the transformer to work.

Two particles, with charges of 20.0 nC and -20.0 nC, are fixed at points with coordinates <0, 4.00 cm> and <0, -4.00 cm>. A particle with charge 10.0 nC is fixed at the origin. (a) Find the electric potential energy of the configuration of the three fixed charges. (b) A fourth particle, with a mass of 2.00 x 10-13 kg and charge of 40.0 nC, is released from rest at the point <3.00 cm, 0>. Find its speed after it has moved freely to a very large distance away.
Answer:
Explanation:
Potential energy of the system of charges
= 9 x 10⁹ x [ q₁q₂ / r₁₂ + q₂q₃ / r₂₃ + q₁q₃ / r₁₃ ]
here r₁₂ , r₂₃ , r₁₃ are distance between 1 st and 2 nd charge , 2 nd and 3 rd charge and fist and third charge.
r₁₂ = 8 cm , r₂₃ = 4 cm , r₁₃ = 4 cm.
q₁ = 20 x 10⁻⁹ C , q₂ = - 20 x 10⁻⁹ C , q₃ = 10 x 10⁻⁹ C
Potential energy = 9 x 10⁹ x [ - 400 x 10⁻¹⁸ / .08 + -200x10⁻¹⁸ / .04 + 200 x 10¹⁸ / .04 ]
= 9 x 10⁹ x - 400 x 10⁻¹⁸ / .08
= 45 x 10⁻⁶ J .
b)
Potential at the point of fourth charge due to three charges of 20 nC , - 20 nC and 10 nC at the centre
9 x 10⁹ [ 20 x 10⁻⁹ / .05 + - 20 x 10⁻⁹ / .05 + 10 x 10⁻⁹ / .03 ]
= 9 x 10⁹ x 10 x 10⁻⁹ / .03
= 3000 V .
potential energy of fourth particle = charge x potential
= 3000 x 40 x 10⁻⁹ = 12 x 10⁻⁵ J .
kinetic energy at infinity = 12 x 10⁻⁵ J
1/2 m v² = 12 x 10⁻⁵ J
.5 x 2 x 10⁻¹³ x v² = 12 x 10⁻⁵
v² = 12 x 10⁸
v = 3.46 x 10⁴ m/s
= 9 x 10⁹

Explanation: The Earth's magnetic field is mostly caused by electric currents in the liquid outer core. The Earth's core is hotter than 1043 K, the Curie point temperature above which the orientations of spins within iron become randomized. Such randomization causes the substance to lose its magnetization.
A proton traveling due north enters a region that contains both a magnetic field and an electric field. The electric field lines point due west. It is observed that the proton continues to travel in a straight line due north. In which direction must the magnetic field lines point
Answer:
upward
Explanation:
In the electromagnetic system of force if the direction of motion of proton does not changes it means that the electric and magnetic forces are such a ways that they are cancelling each other's effect.
Since, electric field lines will exert a force on the proton to the west, hence, the magnetic force must force it to the east. It is well known that magnetic force acts perpendicular to the direction of magnetic field. magnetic field should point upward direction.
A cylindrical space colony 8.00 km in diameter and 30.0 km long has been proposed as living quarters for future space explorers. Such a habitat would have cities, land, and lakes on the inside surface and air and clouds in the center. All this would be held in place by the rotation of the cylinder about the long axis. How fast would such a cylinder have to rotate to produce a 1-g gravitational field at the walls of the cylinder
Answer:
ω = 0.05 rad/s
Explanation:
In order to produce the acceleration equal to the acceleration due to gravity at the surface of Earth, the centripetal acceleration must be equal to the value of g:
[tex]a_c = g\\g = \frac{v^2}{r}\\\\but,\ v=r\omega\\therefore,\\\\g = \omega^2r\\\\\omega = \sqrt{\frac{g}{r}}[/tex]
where,
ω = angular speed = ?
g = acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Earth = 9.81 m/s²
r = radius of cylinder = 8 km/2 = 4 km = 4000 m
Therefore,
[tex]\omega = \sqrt{\frac{9.81\ m/s^2}{4000\ m}}[/tex]
ω = 0.05 rad/s
A physics student mounts two thin lenses along a single optical axis (the lenses are at right angles to the line connecting them, and they appear concentric when viewed from either end). The lenses are identical, each with a positive (converging) focal length of 14.8 cm. They are separated by a distance of 39.4 cm. Lens 1 is to the left of Lens 2.
Required:
a. What is the final image's distance (in cm) from Lens 2?
b. Where is the final image located?
c. What is the overall magnification of the lens pair, considered as a single optical instrument?
Answer:
A) q₂ = 75.98 cm, B) q₂' = 115.38 cm, C)
Explanation:
A) This is an exercise in geometric optics, as the two lenses are separated by a greater distance than their focal lengths from each lens, they must be worked as independent lenses.
Lens 1. More to the left
let's use the constructor equation
[tex]\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{p} + \frac{1}{q}[/tex]
where f is the focal length, p and q are the distance to the object and the image, respectively,
We must assume a distance to the object to perform the calculation, suppose that the object is 50 cm from lens 1 that is further to the left of the system.
[tex]\frac{1}{q_1} = \frac{1}{f} - \frac{1}{p}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{q_1} = \frac{1}{14.8} - \frac{1}{50}[/tex]
1 / q₁ = 0.04756
q₁ = 21.0227 cm
this image is the object for the second lens that has f₂ = 14.8 cm
the distance must be measured from the second lens
p₂ = 39.4 -q₁
p₂ = 39.4 -21.0227
p₂ = 18.38 cm
let's use the constructor equation
1 / q₂ = 1 / f - 1 / p2
[tex]\frac{1}{q_2} = \frac{1}{14.8} - \frac{1}{18.38}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{q_2}[/tex] = 0.01316
q₂ = 75.98 cm
measured from the second lens
B) the position of the final image with respect to the first lens is
q₂’= q₂ + 39.4
q₂'= 75.98 +39.4
q₂' = 115.38 cm
C) the magnification of a lens is
m = - q / p
in this case the image measured from lens 2 is q2 = 75.98 cm
the distance to the object from the first lens is p1 = 50cm
m = - 75.98 / 50
m = -1.5 X
the negative sign indicates that the image is inverted

Radius of large sphere[R]=10cm=0.1m
capacitance of small sphere[c]=4πε0r
=[tex]4π*8.85×10^{-12}×0.05=5.56*10^{-12}F[/tex]
Charge for small sphere[Q1]=100C
Charge for small sphere[Q2]=50C
Potential difference [V1]=[tex] \frac{charge}{capacitance}=\frac{100}{5.56*10^{-12}}=1.8×10^{13}[/tex]V
.
again
capacitance of small sphere[C]=4πε0R
=[tex]4π*8.85×10^{-12}×0.1=1.11*10^{-11}F[/tex]
Potential difference [V2]=[tex] \frac{charge}{capacitance}=\frac{50}{1.11*10^{-11}}=4.5×10^{12}[/tex]V
Now
Loss of energy:
[tex] \frac{cC(V1-V2)^{2}}{2(c+C)}[/tex]
=[tex] \frac{5.56*10^{-12}*1.11*10^{-11}(1.8*10^{13}-4.5*10^{12})^{2}}{2(5.56*10^{-12}+1.11*10^{-11})}[/tex]

Say the turbine is 10 feet in diameter (that's the radius of the dashed circle). Also say that the coil has 100 turns and has a square cross-section with a length of 10 feet and a height of 6 feet. Say that the magnetic rotor has the same height but is only 2 feet wide, it has a magnetic field strength is 0.1T, and it is rotating at 60Hz (note this is not the angular frequency). A typical turbine supplies 10kW of power. Use Faraday's law to find the induced emf in the coil and the amount of induced current.
Answer:
a. ε = 21,014sin(120πt) V
b. 0.476cosec(120πt)
Explanation:
a. Induced emf
We know the induced emf, ε = -dΦ/dt where Φ = magnetic flux through coil = NABcosθ where N = number of turns of coil =, 100, A = area of coil = 10 ft × 6 ft = 60 ft² = 60 × 1 ft² = 60 × (0.3048)² m² = 5.574 m², B = magnetic field strength = 0.1 T and θ = angle between B and normal to A = ωt.
So, Φ = NABcosθ = 100 × 5.574 m² × 0.1 T cosθ = 55.74cosθ Tm²
So, ε = -dΦ/dt = ε = -d(55.74cosθ Tm²)/dt = -d(55.74cosθ Tm²)/dθ × dθ/dt = -55.74 ×(-sinθ) Tm²)/dθ × ω (ω = dθ/dt = angular frequency of shaft = 2πf where f = frequency of rotor = 60 Hz )
ε = 55.74sinθ Tm²) × 2πf
ε = 55.74sinθ Tm²) × 2π(60 Hz)
ε = 6689πsinθ V
ε = 21,014sinθ V
ε = 21,014sinωt V
ε = 21,014sin(2πft) V
ε = 21,014sin(2π(60 Hz)t) V
ε = 21,014sin(120πt) V
b. Current in coil
Since power P = Iε where I = current and ε = induced emf = 21,014sinθ V.
Since power, P = 10 kW = 10000 W
I = P/ε
= 10000 W/21,014sinθ V
= 0.476/sinθ
= 0.476cosecθ
= 0.476cosecωt
= 0.476cosec(120πt)
The maximum current is obtained when θ = 90°
I = 10000 W/21,014sin90 V
I = 10000 W/21,014 V
I = 0.476 A
I = 476 mA

A 70 kg human body typically contains 140 g of potassium. Potassium has a chemical atomic mass of 39.1 u and has three naturally occurring isotopes. One of those isotopes, 40K (potassium), is radioactive with a half-life of 1.3 billion years and a natural abundance of 0.012 %. Each 40K (potassium) decay deposits, on average, 1.0 MeV of energy into the body.
What yearly dose in Gy does the typical person receive from the decay of 40K (potassium) in the body? Express your answer using two significant figures.
Answer:
Gy = 3.14x10⁻⁴ Gy
Explanation:
To get the dose in Gy we need to use the following expression:
Gy = E / m (1)
Where:
Gy: dose
E: energy absorbed per atom
m: mass of the human body.
We don't have the energy per atom, but we can calculate that by following the next procedure.
First, let's determine the number of atoms of potassium in our body. For that we need to determine the moles in the 140 g of potassium, with the molecular mass and then, use the avogadro's number:
moles = m/MM
moles = 140 / 39.1 = 3.58 moles
N° atoms = 3.58 * 6.02x10²³ atoms = 2.16x10²⁴ atoms of K.
The abundance of the ⁴⁰K is 0.012% so the atoms of this isotope would be:
N = 2.16x10²⁴ * (0.012/100) = 2.59x10²⁰ atoms of ⁴⁰K.
With this number, and the half life rate, we can determine the number of decay atoms in a year (λ) using the following expression:
λ = ln2 / t(1/2)
λ = ln2 / 1.3x10⁹ = 5.33x10⁻¹⁰ year⁻¹
This number, multiplied by the number of atoms:
R = 5.33x10⁻¹⁰ * 2.59x10²⁰ = 1.38x10¹¹ atoms/year
Now, each atom of K gives an average energy of 1 MeV, so with the atoms we have:
E = 1.38x10¹¹ * 1x10⁶ eV = 1.38x10¹⁷ eV
This value can be expressed in Joules so:
E = 1.38x10¹⁷ eV * (1 J / 6.24x10¹⁸ eV) = 0.022 J
Finally, we can use (1) to get the dose in Gy:
Gy = 0.022 / 70
Gy = 3.14x10⁻⁴ GyHope this helps
Donna and Dave were participating in a lab on the properties of water. First, they tried to see how many drops of water they could fit on a penny. Then they dropped water and alcohol on waxed paper and observed what happened. Next they made a streak of water and then alcohol on the lab bench. The alcohol streak dried up and disappeared first. Donna and Dave had to write an explanation for everything that happened during the lab. How can they explain the disappearing alcohol? A) Alcohol is flammable. B) Alcohol has a lower boiling point than water. C) Alcohol has a lower melting point than water. D) Alcohol has a higher boiling point than water.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
D ok ok ok ok bye
The correct statement is that the alcohol has lower boiling point than water. The correct option is B.
What is boiling point?At the boiling point, the pressure exerted by the surroundings on a liquid equals the pressure exerted by the liquid's vapor, under this condition, adding heat outcomes in the transformation of the liquid into its vapor without raising the temperature.
The boiling point of alcohol is low. Because there is less hydrogen bonding between ethanol molecules than between water molecules.
The ethanol requires less energy to vaporize than water, and water has a higher boiling point than ethanol.
The boiling point of a liquid can be known by utilizing the capillary method, that encompasses placing an inverted capillary in the liquid of interest as well as heating it.
Thus, the correct option is B.

Answer:
C
Explanation:
edge 2020... Using elimination it's the only one that makes sense.
The statement third "an increase in the distance between the objects causes a greater change in the gravitational force than the same increase in mass" is correct.
What is gravitational force?The gravitational force is a force that attracts all mass-bearing objects. The gravitational force is referred to as attractive because it always strives to pull masses together rather than pushing them apart.
As we know, the gravitational force is given by:
[tex]\rm F = \dfrac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}[/tex]
Where, G is the gravitational constant.
m1 and m2 are masses.
r is the distance between the masses.
From the data given in the table, shows that:
The gravitational force is indirectly proportional to the square of the distance.
Thus, the statement third "an increase in the distance between the objects causes a greater change in the gravitational force than the same increase in mass" is correct.

His eyes are 1.83 m above the floor, and the top of his head is 0.15 m higher. Find the height above the floor of the top and bottom of the smallest mirror in which he can see both the top of his head and his feet.
Answer:
y_lower = 0.915 m, y_superior = 1,905 m
Explanation:
In this exercise we use the law of reflection for a flat mirror.
θ’= θ
To see the feet of the person a ray of light that part of them must reach the bottom of the mirror and its reflection has to reach the eyes.
As the law of reflection the incident and reflected angles are equal, the distance from the floor to the point where the two rays (incident and reflected) touch the mirror must be symmetrical, oses from the floor
y = 1.83 / 2
y = 0.915 m
To see the head, a ray of light that comes from the tip of the head and is reflected in the mirror must reach the eyes. As the head is 0.15 m above the eyes and the incident and reflected rays have the same angle, the mirror must be at half the height, that is, the mirror is 0.075 m below the tip of the head.
In summary
* the bottom of the mirror is 0.915 m from the ground
* the top of the mirror is at 1.83 + 0.075
y_superior = 1,905 m

In any given wave, when the frequency of the wave doubles (f = 2f), which of the following other changes would also take place?
A The wavelength would double (λ = 2λ).
B The velocity would double (v = 2v).
C The wavelength would be half (λ = λ/2).
D The velocity would be half (v = v/2).
Answer:
The correct answer is -
B. The velocity would double (v = 2v).
C. The wavelength would be half (λ = λ/2).
Explanation:
A wave has a speed or velocity that is related to the wavelength of the wave and the frequency of the wave and this relationship can be represented by the following equation-
Wave velocity V = Wavelength (λ) * Frequency (f)
Frequency (f) = Velocity (V) / Wavelength(λ).
The frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional and frequency and velocity are directly proportional to each other.
So, if f = 2f then,
putting value in the formula,
2f = 2v/λ, which means, f = 2v and f = λ/2
when the frequency is doubled, the wavelength will be halved and velocity will be doubled.
