Question
Two cities A and B are connected by a 200km long train line. A train leaves A for B at 20 km / h at the same time as another train leaves B for A at 5 km / h. In the same
moment a fly leaves from A to B following the train line. The fly flies at 40 km / h until it collides with train B. At that moment it returns instantly and follows the train line until it collides with train A. At that moment it returns instantly and follows the line of the train. train until it collides with train B. The fly continues this process, traveling ever smaller distances until the two trains meet. (It is an ideal problem and the fly does not get squashed by the trains).
What is the total distance traveled by the fly?

- Description In the particular case of figure below derive both the critical clearing angle and the critical clearing time. P, = Pmaz sin d Pm A1 do der Smar A generator having H = 6.R MJ/MVA is delivering power of 1.0 per unit to an infinite bus through a purely reactive network when the occurrence of a fault reduces the generator output power to zero. The maximum power that could be delivered is 2.5S per unit. When the fault is cleared, the original network conditions again exist. Determine the critical clearing angle and critical clearing time. (Roll=PQRS)arrow_forwardPlease answer in typing formatarrow_forwardThe simultaneous equations representing the currents flowing in an unbalanced, three-phase, star connected, electrical network are as follows: 2.4I1 + 3.6I2 + 4.8I3 = 1.2 −3.9I1 + 1.3I2 − 6.5I3 = 2.6 1.7I1 + 11.9I2 + 8.5I3 = 0 Using Gaussian elimination, solve the equations for the currents.arrow_forward
