While cruising down University Boulevard you are stopped by a cop who states that you ran a red traffic light. Because you don't want to pay the stiff fine, you are attempting a physics defense. You claim that due to the relativistic Doppler effect, the red color of the light λ=616 nm appeared green '=531 nm to you. The cop makes a quick calculation of his own and rejects your defense. How fast, in terms of your speed u divided by the speed of light in vacuum c, would you have to drive to justify your claim? Note that the speed u is taken to be a positive quantity. U 4.0 C

220 V is supplied to 800 primary turns of an autotransformer. What will the outputvoltage be across 200 secondary turns? 2. A filament transformer has a turns ratio of 1:20. What current must be supplied to theprimary windings if 5 A is required by the filament? 3. The filament transformer in the previous question is supplied with 150 V to theprimary side. What is the secondary voltage? 4. 440 V is supplied to 1000 primary turns of an autotransformer. If the desired outputvoltage is 100 V how many secondary turns must be tapped?
