A t-rated switch may be used to (its/a) <u>Rated</u> current capacity current capacity when controlling an incandescent lighting load.

<h3>What is "current rating"?</h3>

The greatest current that a fuse is rated to carry for an infinite duration without significantly degrading the fuse element is known as the current rating.
There is also a large selection of power switching transistors that have voltage ratings well over 1000V and current ratings up to several hundred amps.

<h3>What does the term "rated current" mean?</h3>

When an electrical device receives its rated voltage and outputs its rated power, it flows at its rated current.
So, when a device is designed for a certain amperage, that amperage is referred to as the equipment's rated current.

<h3>What does electrical "rated" mean?</h3>

An electrical appliance's rating reveals the voltage range at which it is intended to operate as well as the current consumption at that range.
These numbers are typically shown on a rating plate that is fastened to the device, such as 230 volts, 3 amps.

An electrician must decide between 3 heaters. The wire that she is using is rated 15A maximum, anything beyond that is a fire ha

lutik1710 [3]

Use the formula: $P=IV$ , where P is power (watts), I is current (amperes) and V is potential difference (volts).

For the first heater:
$900W = I_{1}*120V$
$I_{1} = 7.5A$

For the second heater:
$1800W = I_{2}*120V$
$I_{2} = 15A$

For the third heater:
$3000W = I_{3}*240V$
$I_{3} = 12.5A$

Which is the force of repulsion between two positivity-charged particles?

Yuki888 [10]

Since they are both positively charged, then the force would in fact be repulsion, because they are both the same. If you were to have one positively charged, and one negatively charged, then they would go towards eachother.

I hope this helps, if you need help on this question or any other questions, just ask. I am here to help.

An inductor is connected to an AC generator. As the generator's frequency is increased, the current in the inductor A. Increases

Luda [366]

Answer:

B) Decrease

Explanation:

Resistance offered due to inductor in any AC circuit is given as

$X_L = \omega L$

here we know that

$\omega$ = angular frequency

$\omega = 2\pi f$

now by ohm's law we know that

$i = \frac{V}{X}$

here we have

$i = \frac{V}{\omega L}$

so current is inversely depends on the frequency of AC

so if frequency is increased then the current will decrease

When atoms form a bond, it is usually because each atom acquires a more stable arrangement of electrons in its electron shells.

liraira [26]

C. Usually when an atom loses or gains an electron, it is because it is trying to satisfy the Octet Rule. The Octet Rule states that an atom is at its stablest when it has 8 valence electrons (two in helium's case)

If you look on the periodic table, elements on the left (Alkaline Metals) are the most reactive because they only have one valence electron (or electron in the outer shell). Elements on the right (Noble Gases) are the least reactive because they have a full outer shell of 8 valence electrons.

Later on you will find that as stability decreases as you go down the periodic table but that is a discussion for a different time.
