a(n) ? is an intentionally constructed, low-impedance electrically conductive path designed and intended to carry current during

ground-fault conditions from the point of grounding on a wiring system to the electrical supply source, and is intended to facilitate the operation of the overcurrent protective device or ground-fault detectors on a high-impedance system.

A effective ground-fault current path  is an intentionally constructed, low-impedance electrically conductive path designed and intended to carry current during ground-fault conditions from the point of grounding on a wiring system to the electrical supply source.

<h3>Is earth an effective ground fault current path?</h3>
  • Sticking the wire in the ground is not sufficient since the earth is not thought to be a reliable ground-fault current channel.
  • The electrical system of a building or other structure is based on grounding.
  • To give a fault current a secure path to travel, grounding is used.
  • When installing switches, light fixtures, appliances, and receptacles, a complete ground route must be kept.
  • The undesired current flow trips circuit breakers or blows fuses in a system that is correctly grounded.
  • Through the use of a grounding bank, effective grounding maintains voltages within predetermined limits during a line-to-ground fault (short-circuit condition).

A specimen of a 4340 steel alloy with a plane strain fracture toughness of 54.8 Mpa root m is exposed to a stress of 1030 MPa. W
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

It will not  experience fracture when it is exposed to a stress of 1030 MPa.

Explanation:

Given

Klc = 54.8 MPa √m

a = 0.5 mm = 0.5*10⁻³m

Y = 1.0

This problem asks us to determine whether or not the 4340 steel alloy specimen will fracture when exposed to a stress of 1030 MPa, given the values of <em>KIc</em>, <em>Y</em>, and the largest value of <em>a</em> in the material. This requires that we solve for <em>σc</em> from the following equation:

<em>σc = KIc / (Y*√(π*a))</em>

Thus

σc = 54.8 MPa √m / (1.0*√(π*0.5*10⁻³m))

⇒ σc = 1382.67 MPa > 1030 MPa

Therefore, the fracture will not occur because this specimen can handle a stress of 1382.67 MPa before experience fracture.

A gas enters a compressor that provides a pressure ratio (exit pressure to inlet pressure) equal to 8. If a gage indicates the g
olga55 [171]

Answer:

P_2_{abs}=160\ psia (absolute).

Explanation:

Given that

Pressure ratio r

r=8

r=\dfrac{P_2_{abs}}{P_1_{abs}}

  8=\dfrac{P_2_{abs}}{P_1_{abs}}                                  -----1

P₁(gauge) = 5.5 psig

We know that

Absolute pressure = Atmospheric pressure  + Gauge  pressure

Given that

Atmospheric pressure = 14.5 lbf/in²

P₁(abs) = 14.5 + 5.5  psia

P₁(abs) =20 psia

Now by putting the values in the above equation 1

8=\dfrac{P_2_{abs}}{20}

P_2_{abs}=8\times 20\ psia

P_2_{abs}=160\ psia

Therefore the exit gas pressure will be 160 psia (absolute).

Find the cost of fencing a rectangular park of length 10 m and breadth 5 m at the rate of? 10 per metre.
ser-zykov [4K]
It costs 300
Perimeter = 2(L+B)
2(10+5)
2(15) = 30
10 — 1metre
X — 30metres
30metres = 300

A 6-pack of canned drinks is to be cooled from 23°C to 3°C. The mass of each canned drink is 0.355 kg. The drinks can be treated
Vesna [10]

Answer:

178 kJ

Explanation:

Assuming no heat transfer out of the cooling device, and if we can neglect the energy stored in the aluminum can, the energy transferred by the canned drinks, would be equal to the change in the internal energy of the canned drinks, as follows:

ΔU = -Q = -c*m*ΔT (1)

where c= specific heat of water = 4180 J/kg*ºC

           m= total mass = 6*0.355 Kg = 2.13 kg

           ΔT = difference between final and initial temperatures = 20ºC

Replacing by these values in (1), we can solve for Q as follows:

Q = 4180 J/kg*ºC * 2.13 kg * -20 ºC = -178 kJ

So, the amount of heat transfer from the six canned drinks is 178 kJ.
