4 0

Circuit breaker is a device that is designed to open an overloaded circuit and prevent overheating. The correct option in regards to the given question is option "a". The main purpose of the circuit breaker is to disconnect the defective switch from the circuit as soon as any problem arises. This helps in preventing any kind of major accident. Overheating can result in a big accident and the circuit breaker is the device that senses the overheating and disconnects the switch before any major incident. It is an automated system that acts as a protective devise.

38. You are fishing and catch a fish with a mass of

adoni [48]

Answer:

1.7333333m/s²

Explanation:

Tension of the line = the weight + force from pulling up the fish

30N = mg + ma

30 = (6)(9.8) + (6)a

10.4 = 6a

∴ a = 1.7333333m/s²

When the spring, with the attached 275.0 g mass, is displaced from its new equilibrium position, it undergoes SHM. Calculate the

topjm [15]

Answer:

The period of oscillation is 1.33 sec.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 275.0 g

Suppose value of spring constant is 6.2 N/m.

We need to calculate the angular frequency

Using formula of angular frequency

$\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}$

Where, m = mass

k = spring constant

Put the value into the formula

$\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{6.2}{275.0\times10^{-3}}}$

$\omega=4.74\ rad/s$

We need to calculate the period of oscillation,

Using formula of time period

$T=\dfrac{2\pi}{\omega}$

Put the value into the formula

$T=\dfrac{2\pi}{4.74}$

$T=1.33\ sec$

Hence, The period of oscillation is 1.33 sec.

12) A neutral atom has two, eight, eight electrons in its first, second, and third energy levels.This information ________.

pentagon [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

Option C

The information given in the question tells us about the number of electrons in an atom and also the number of shells in the atom. So, we will come to know about the atomic number, size and chemical properties of the atom. But we cannot determine atomic mass. Atomic mass is a function of number of neutrons and protons.
