Based on the information provided, the technician who is correct is: C. Both Technician A and Technician B.

<h3>What is an open circuit?</h3>

An open circuit can be defined as a type of electric circuit in which the continuity between the conducting wire (paths) has been broken or cut.

This ultimately implies that, an open circuit is designed and developed to prevent the flow of electric charges (electrons or currents) from one point in an electric circuit to another.

In Electrical engineering, a short usually causes an electric circuit protection device such as a fuse, circuit breaker, etc., to open when higher than normal current flows through the electrical circuit.

A material point in equilibrium has 1 independent component of shear stress in the xz plane. a)True b)- False
ozzi

Answer:

True

Explanation:

For point in xz plane the stress tensor is given by\left[\begin{array}{ccc}Dx_{} &txz\\tzx&Dz\\\end{array}\right]

where Dx is the direct stress along x ; Dz is direct stress along z ;  tzx and txz are the  shear stress components

We know that the stress tensor matrix is symmetrical which means that tzx = txz  ( obtained by moment equlibrium )

thus we require only 1 independent component of shear stress to define the whole stress tensor at a point in 2D plane

IgorC [24]

Answer:

Improved/ advanced types of Actuators include servo systems, create a large range of actuator motion in response to the changing needs of the operational environment or process.

Actuators are local or automated suppliers of working motion.

Hydraulic and air cylinders can be classified as single-acting cylinders, meaning that the energy source result in movement in one direction and a spring is used for the other direction.

Explanation:

An actuator control system is referred to as any electronic, electrical, or electromechanical system often used to activate an actuator, control the direction as well as extent and duration of its output. Actuator control systems could take the form of extremely simple, manually-operated, start-and-stop stations, either sophisticated or programmable computer systems. The more improved/ advanced types include servo systems that produce a large range of actuator motion in response to the changing needs of the operational environment or process. This type of actuator control system uses an interface arrangement that assimilates feedback from the process or mechanism and adjusts the actuator in the right way. Most actuator systems will include at least a set of travel limits that prevent the actuator destroying itself or the secondary mechanism.

Actuators are local or automated suppliers of working motion. They are used to changes, adjust, or move a secondary mechanism, where a physical operator cannot intervene directly. They are denoted by a large range of varying types using electrical and electromagnetic, hydraulic, or pneumatic power sources to create linear or rotary outputs. One element they all have in common is the actuator control system used to start, stop, and adjust the range, speed, and duration of the working motion.

Actuators can produce a linear motion, rotary motion or oscillatory motion which means they can create motion in one direction, in a circular motion or in opposite directions at regular intervals. Hydraulic and air cylinders can be classified as single-acting cylinders, meaning that the energy source result in movement in one direction and a spring is used for the other direction.

An LED camping headlamp can run for 18 hours, powered by three AAA batteries. The batteries each have a capacity of 1000 mAh, an
KIM [24]

Answer:

a) the power consumption of the LEDs is 0.25 watt

b) the LEDs drew 0.0555 Amp current

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Three AAA Batteries;

<---- 1000mAh [ + -] 1.5 v ------1000mAh [ + -] 1.5 v --------1000mAh [ + -] 1.5 v------

so V_total = 3 × 1.5 = 4.5V

a) the power consumption of the LEDs

I_battery = 1000 mAh / 18hrs    { for 18 hrs}

I_battery = 1/18 Amp    { delivery by battery}

so consumption by led = I × V_total

we substitute

⇒ 1/18 × 4.5

P = 0.25 watt

Therefore the power consumption of the LEDs is 0.25 watt

b) How much current do the LEDs draw

I_Draw = I_battery = 1/18 Amp = 0.0555 Amp

Therefore the LEDs drew 0.0555 Amp current
