In a case where electrical current leakage from the circuit occurs,

Answer:

<u>GFCI</u> - <em>" Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter" </em>

Working Principle - The GFCI operates by measuring the flow of current into the circuit to that of flowing out. And then operate as accordingly to the situations.

Importance - The GFCI are used for the purpose of protection against electrocution and mainly are installed where the circuit may come in contact with water.

Explanation:

  • If the difference between the current leaving and returning through the current transformer of the GFCI exceeds 5mA, the solid-state circuitry opens the switching contacts and de-energizes the circuit.
  • As the GFCI can detect the current even in amount of currents as small as 4 to 5 milliamps. Now in case there is any leakage current from the circuit, so , the GFCI will respond by shutting off the system or circuit in order to avoid any sort of loss.

Answer:

The GFCI shuts down the circuit when it senses a current leakage.

Explanation:

The ground of a circuit should truly be ground. But if the ground circuit is not truly ground, then someone could get shocked. The GFCI monitors the possibility of current flow to ground. If this occurs, then the GFCI stops all flow of current, for safety reasons.

It also monitors if the current flow is interrupted. Say you drop something that is plugged in, into a sink of water. The GFCI should note the current loss, and shut down the circuit.

GFCI stands for: Ground-Fault Circuit Interrupter

A store trying to analyze the behavior of its customers will often maintaina two-dimensional array A, where the rows correspond
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

See explaination

Explanation:

Diverse Subset Problem is NP: When presented with a set of k customers, it can be checked in polynomial time that you wont at any time have two customers in the set have ever bought the same product.

Independent Set is known to be NP-complete.

Independent Set ?P Diverse Subset Problem: Suppose we have a black box for Diverse Subset Problem and want to solve an instance of Independent Set. For our Independent Set Problem, we have a graph G=(V,E) and a number k, and need to find out if G contains an independent set of size (at least) k. We need to reduce the Independent Set Problem to a Diverse Subset Problem. We do this by constructing an array where each v in V is a customer and each e in E is a product, and customer v purchased every product e for which the product edge e touches the customer node v. Then we ask the black box for the Diverse Subset Problem if there is a subset of k customers that is diverse.

The black box for the Diverse Subset Problem will return.
