I'm assuming that by ' IT ' you mean ' It ' for 'total current'.

-- The effective resistance of 2k and 1k in parallel is 2/3 k ohms.

-- The power dissipation is I2R = 0.003 x 2/3 k = 2 watts

What is phase loss?

Phase loss is the loss of power to a specific area of the circuit. Phase loss can result from exposed wires or damaged wires or even downed power lines.


What is the difference between voltage drop and power loss?

voltage drop is the loss or drop that occured across the element so that voltage gets down and current increases across the element and power loss is like i2r loss and like wastage of power without consuming


Transformer Output power less than input power?

A: Absolutely a power transfer will have an internal loss of IR . for a power transformer the loss can be as much of 20% or more if other magnetics are involved like iron screw holding the lamination together. Usually brass is used to reduce that loss.

Why is the efficiency of a transformer so high?

The efficiency of a transformer depends on its design and is equal to the power output divided by the power input. The difference between these two quantities is the power loss, which comes out in the form of heat. The power loss has two components, which are the power lost in the resistance of the windings, known as the copper loss, and the power lost in eddy currents in the magnetic core, the iron loss. The copper loss depends on the current, while the iron loss depends on the voltage. To increase the efficiency the designer can use thicker wire and a more massive iron core. Both these measures increase the size and cost of the transformer. Small transformers for electronic equipment might have efficiency of 80-90%, while power transformers used in electricity supply might have efficiency of 98%. It is necessary to use higher efficiency at the higher power levels because the amount of energy wasted is significant.

What factors effect loss ratios?

To explain loss ratio we have to start by the factors included in a loss. The loss factors are: Claims paid plus net reserves plus incurred but not reported (IBNR) plus provision for adverse deviation (PAD) Total them and substract your total with Total recoveries (actual +potential) You now have the total loss. Once we have these factors, we can divide the loss by the earned premium to obtain the ratio.
