MW power is to be delivered from a power station to a town 10 km away. One uses a pair of Cu wires of radius 0.5 cm for this purpose. Calculate the fraction of ohmic losses to power transmitted if

(i) Power is transmitted at 220V. Comment on the feasibility of doing this.

(ii) A step-up transformer is used to boost the voltage to 11000V, power transmitted, then a step-down transformer is used to bring voltage to 220 V. (ρ_cu= 1.7*10^-8 SI unit)

A circuit is made up of resistance 3 Ω and inductance 0.01 H. An alternating emf of 100 V at 50 Hz is connected, then the phase difference between the current and the emf in the circuit is

A radioactive sample decays by 63% of its initial value in 10s. It would have decayed by 50% of its initial value in :-

A coil has resistance of 30 ohm and inductive reactance 20 ohm at 50 Hz frequency. If an ac source of 200 V, 100 Hz is connected across the coil, current in coil will be

Two bodies of mass 10 kg and 2 kg are moving with velocities m/s and m/s respectively. The velocity of their centre of mass is

A capacitor having capacitance of 100 µF is charged with a potential difference of 12 V is connected to an inductor of inductance 10 mH. Find the maximum current through the inductor.
