An engineer in India (standard household voltage = 220 volts) is designing a transformer for use on herupcoming trip to Canada (standard household voltage = 120 volts). If her input coil has 240 turns, how many
turns should her output coil have?

Answers

he should a step-up transformer with k=220/120=1.83 so output coil must have 240*1.83=440 turns

two plane mirrors are at right angles to each other. a man stands between them and combs his hair with his right hand. in how many of the images will he be seen using his right hand? none 1 2 3

Answers

Explanation:

In the first two images the comb would be in the left hand of the man. The image which appears in between those two images has the comb in its right hand. Therefore, the images in which he will be seen using his right hand is one.

A _______ is a repeating disturbance or vibration that transfers or moves energy from place to place without transporting mass.force
wave
vacuum
medium
PLZ help me!

Answers

Answer: wave

Explanation:

These are the basic definitions and characteristic of the terms given, which show tha the only rigth answer is the second option: wave.

1) Force is an interaction. There are four natural forces: electrostatic, gravity, strong nuclear force and weak nuclear force.

2) Wave: is a sequence of pulses or vibrations that cause the continuous transportation of energy (propagation). There is not transport of mass, only energy.

Some examples of waves are sound waves, electromagnetic waves (light, radio waves, micro waves, infrarred waves, ultraviolet waves).

3) Vacuum: is the absence of matter; empty space. Only electromagnetic waves can travel through vacuum; other waves need a medium to travel.

4) Medium: any matter is a medium: a solid, the air, a liquid, all of them are media through which waves can transport its energy, depending of the wavelength.

A wave, waves transport energy rather than matter from one area to another.
An example of this is conduction of thermal energy, for instance when you heat up a saucepan the metal areas of the pan not touching the heat source still heat up due to waves of thermal energy (conduction)

What causes the earths crust to move ?

Answers

Upwelling currents in the molten material beneath the crust.

The rocks that make up the crust are light, compared with the metal-rich material beneath. The crust floats on top like an iceberg. Slow-moving currents underneath propel the continents around the surface

The movement of magma underneath earth's crust.

If you apply 100.0 N of force to lift an object with a single, fixed pulley, then what is the resistive force?

Answers

If you apply 100.0 N of force to lift an object with a single, fixed pulley, then the resistive force is also equivalent to 100 Newtons of force. Since the weight of the object was not mentioned, it is assumed that it has already been taken into account in the 100 N value of force. This follows Newton's law of motion of equal action and reaction.

What does the red shift suggest about the universe?

Answers

So far, the only way we know to explain the red shift is
as an effect of the light sources moving away from us.
That's the basis of the whole idea of the expanding universe,
and ultimately, the big bang theory.

If we ever find another mechanism that can produce the same
shift in the wavelengths of light without the source moving away
from us, then the whole system of the expanding universe and the
big bang theory will fall apart.
