Why is electricity transmittedat very high voltages and then stepped down by transformers?

The higher the transmission voltage the lower the I2r line losses. Greater effiency.

Answer

The voltage produced by power station generators is limited to 25 - 30 kV because of there is a limit to how physically-large a generator's windings can be. However, to transmit energy, the transmission voltages must be very high because, for any given load, the higher the voltage, the lower the load current. This means that (1) voltage drops along the line are manageable, (2) conductors of practical size can be used, and (3) line losses are minimised.

Who will play sam's girlfriend in transformers 4?

In the first two it is Mikaela Banes. Played by Megan Fox.

In the third on it is Carli. Played by Rosie Hunington Whitely.

Who killed Blackout in Transformers?

Blackout was killed by the coordinated effort of Captain Lennox in his "slide" attack and the fighter jets missle shots before they moved on to fire at Megatron.

How big is Unicron in G1 Transformers?

Cybertron is, well, the size of a planet - a BIG planet, if you consider how many TFs live there and how big THEY are. Think about it this way. In Cybertron, Primus (whose alt mode is, uh, Cybertron) is so big, the actual black hole (the end of time, as Vector Prime so nicely put it) is roughly the size of his head and torso. So curl him up in a big ball, and you've got the planet Cybertron (Formerly known as Gorlam Prime)

Why Mikaela is blond is Transformers 3?

Who play sam witwicky in transformers?

Sam Witnicky is a teenager with a driver's license, his age otherwise unspecified. He uncovers the Autobots' existence and discovers the location of the AllSpark (using his great-grandfather's glasses).

Shia Lebeouf plays Sam Witwicky. He was 21 years old (and a day) when the first movie was released on June 12, 2007 (Australia).

Why do transformers needs capacitor bank?

A capacitor can store electrical charge, and a bank of them could store alarge charge. We sometimes set up a capacitor bank to store a large electrical charge for certain physics experiments. With the flip of a switch, we can "dump" all that electrical energy into a circuit to power up something. The pulse of power might be use do drive a big laser to punch a hole in a missile in a high arc, just to cite one example of the use of a bank of capacitors. In the electrical trade the capacitor bank is used for power factor correction. The capacitive reactance is used to offset the inductive reactance caused by inductive loads (motors). Motor loads can cause the power factor to drop to .8 or lower and for this the customer is penalized by an extra service charge. The goal is to have a power factor level above .9. where there is no surcharge from the power supply authority. The cost of installing a capacitor bank is soon payed off from the absence of the surcharge.

Why does Megatron in Transformers hate humans?

because of all the hardship he went through when he was a child. also the way that mankind views mutants as monsters.

On transformers how many teams are there?

There are two factions: Autobots and Decepticons. Within that, though, there are loads of individual squads.

G1: Dynobots, Protectobots, Arielbots, Throttlebots, Wreckers, Survivors, Earthforce, Stunticons, Combaticons, Seekers, Constructicons

RID: Autobots Bros., Team Bullet Train, the Spychangers, Decepticon unit (Lead by Scourge)

Armada: the various Minicon teams (Including, but not limited to: Star Saber trio, Skyboom Sheild trio, Requium Blaster trio, etc.)

Cybertron: Cybertron Defense Team

So, that's more than sixteen teams.

Why current transformers are used?

1) voltage level up-down

2) voltage level down-up

3) isolation

Answer

Because transmission would be impossible except at high voltages/low load currents due to enormous voltage drops that would otherwise occur, and these are achieved using Transformers..

Who would win Spider-Man and Superman vs Optimus Prime and Chuck Norris?

Optimus Prime: Her is 36 feet tall Chuck is like 6ish. Optimus has an Ion energy gun, energon blades, and energon hocks and more so Optimus Would turn Chuck into a bloody mess. Assuming he acctually fights him. Optimus Has strong moral values against hurting the human race.

Chuck Norris actually created Optimus. When he roundhouse kicked a smart car.

Where is the Recon Chopper in transformers?

you have to get a high threat level and it will come

How did Megatron and Starscream meet?

they escaped after being severely wounded by Optimus Prime/Jetfire.

How do you get the alspark from megetron ds transformers?

I had trouble with this as well. You have to hit his back about 3-5 times and he will drop it. Grab the Allpark and smash it to Megatrons chest. Your character will die and you will play as Optimus to then defeat Megatron

look at the robots closely

What type of paint does the transformers toys use?

I can't say what they are painted with at the factory, but from what I understand, most custom action figure makes use an acrylic, like Testors Model Masters Acryl, to paint their figures.

Is Megatron bigger than Optimus?

although he is called his brother, he actually isnt, he is referred to by Optimus in the movie as his brother but if you read the prequel book, he is only referred to as such because they co ruled Cybertron togerther before Megatron was corrupted

Regarding previous poster...This is actually not so. I thought in that story, the Prequel book they WERE brothers. Half brothers, and they refer to each other as brothers. In the old cartoon they aren't but in the movie they def. could be.. Here's why:

1. Optimus DID call Megatron brother in the first movie. This could interpreted as a sense of comradery, and that they are of the same speicies etc. BUT it could be argured to the literal sense.

2. Optimus tells Sam that the Decepticon revived the last of the Primes....AKA Megatron...

Any way you put it, it could be either.
