Give your answer in SI units and to three significant figures. D Question 1 Two lenses are placed a distance of 20.0 cm apart. The leftmost lens is a converging lens with a focal length of 6 cm while the seconds lens is a diverging lends with a focal length of 10. If an object is placed 2 cm to the left of the converging lens, determine the magnification of the two lenses combined.
A 120V e.m.f is across a transformer's 200-turn primary coil. How many turns should a secondary coil have in order to produce a 30V e.m.f?
A large power plant generates electricity at 12.0 kV. Its old transformer once converted the voltage to 355 kV. The secondary coil of this transformer is being replaced so that its output can be 775 kV for more efficient cross-country transmission on upgraded transmission lines. a. What is the ratio of turns in the new secondary to the number of turns in the old secondary?  b. What is the ratio of new current output to the old current output for the same power input to the transformer?  c. If the upgraded transmission lines have the same resistance as the original ones, what is the ratio of new line power loss to the old?
