What is the peak voltage corresponding to 120 V rms?

169.7 V

a) p=vr^2, r=(p/v)^.5=3.53 ohm

b) p;=v*i, i=p/v=12.5

Np/Ns=Vp/Vs=120/16=7.5

Vp=120V, Vs/Vp=0.05, Vs=0.05*120V=6V

Ns=200*768=153,600 turns

A) Ns=Np*(Vs/Vp)=0.1*Np, Np is not given

B) P=VI, 6=12*I, I=0.5A

f=1/[2*pi*([LC)^.5)]=1453 Hz

Vp=sqrt(2)*Vrms

P=V^2/R or R=V^2/P

Ns=200*768/1

Vs/Vp=Ns/Np

Pprimary=Psecondary.

20/120=.167

120 x 1.4 = 168

Strictly speaking, it is not 1.4 but 1.4142135623730950488016887242097.... = SQRT[2]

This is only about 1% difference, though

What is the peak voltage corresponding to 120 V rms?

An electric blow dryer rated at 1500 W operates on the 120 V power grid. If you assume this dryer has no capacitance or inductance, find this dryer..

A.) Resistance

B.) Current drawn.

doorbell usually operates on 16-24 V, so the 120 V household voltages must stepped down to accommodate. Find the ratio of the numbers on the secondary to the number of turns on the primary to step 120 V down to 16V.

if a transformer has 120 V AC on the primary side, and the secondary/ primary turns ratio of 0.05, what is the transformer’s secondary voltage?

for long-distance transmission of electricity, voltage of 1-26 kV at the generator are stepped up to high levels, such as 230-768 kV. In stepping up from 1 kV to 768 kV, if there are 200 turns of transformer wire on the primary, how many turns will the secondary contain?

the function of those little black transformers that clog your power strips is to step down line voltage to run small electronic gadgets. Suppose a fax machine uses an ideal transformer with a primary voltage of 120 V and primary windings. If the secondary voltage is 12 V find

A.) The number of turns on the secondary

B.) If the fax machine at idle draws enough current to dissipate 6 W, find the current that must flow in the primary.

find the resonant frequency of a circuit that has a 400 mH inductor and a 30 nF capacitor connected in series.
