Answer:

radiation pressure

Explanation:

This is the type of pressure that can be applied on any surface as a result of the exchange of momentum that exists between the object and the electromagnetic field. Radiation pressure generates small amount of forces and cannot be easily noticed although such forces are essential in certain physical processes.

Example is momentum of light or electromagnetic radiation which as any wavelength, in which this wavelength can be absorbed, reflected by matter on any scale.

Answer:

Radiation pressure

Explanation:

Radiation pressure is gotten from the light source. The radiation pressure has a set mass limit of 150 solar masses. Any mass from 150 solar masses or below supports the formation of the stars.

However when the mass exceeds 150 solar masses the force of gravity is unable to hold the masses together and the excess mass

Is usually blown away after which the required mass is then used in the formation.

An inverse-time circuit breaker (CB) is used for branch-circuit short-circuit and ground-fault protection for a 30-horsepower, 2

Maru [420]

Answer:

Explanation:

Motor rating is given in horsepower (hp), it will be converted in watt (W).

Standard to install circuit breaker for an electric circuit is usually 20% ~ 25% more than the Rated Current of the circuit

while

Standard to install overload relay for an electric circuit is usually 20% ~ 25% more than the Running Current of the circuit.

So, to find the maximum capacity of the circuit breaker, rated current of the motor will be multiplied by 1.2 ~ 1.25

Step by Step Explanation:

30hp = 22371W (as 1hp = 745.7)

Assuming unity power factor (cosФ=1) and 208V phase to phase voltage:

Rated Power (watt) = √3 . V.I. cosФ

{if 208V is phase to neutral voltage, then use following formula:

Rated Power (watt) = 3 . V.I. cosФ}

$\frac{22371}{\sqrt{3} * 208 * 1} = I$

Rated Current = 62.169A

So, required maximum rating for circuit breaker is:

20% to 25% of the rated current = 62.17*1.2 ~ 62.17*1.25

=74.6A ~ 77.7A

Hence, any breaker between the above mentioned rating will be appropriate.

Find the sum of the vectors:11 km N ,11km E

vladimir1956 [14]

The resultant vector is 11√2 km due north east.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The vector is a type of quantity which has both magnitude and direction. This quantities when expressed needs to specify both magnitude and direction.

We need to calculate the magnitude and direction separately.

Here firstly for the magnitude,

The magnitudes are both 11 km and they are at right angles to each other.

So, the resultant magnitude = √(11² +11²) km

=11√2 km

Now for the direction, one vector is due north and the other is due east.

So the resultant vector is due north east.

So the final vector is 11√2 km due North-East.

An astronaut goes to Mars to do some experiments. Explain why her mass stays the same but her weight changes.

Snowcat [4.5K]

Because mass does not change from place to place but weight does change from place to place... why? because weight is the amount of gravitational force on an object and mass is the amount of matter in an object. mars has less gravitational force so an object will weigh less than it really weighs there

In an RC circuit, what fraction of the final energy is stored in an initially uncharged capacitor after it has been charging for

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

The fraction fraction of the final energy is stored in an initially uncharged capacitor after it has been charging for 3.0 time constants is

$k = 0.903$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The time constant $\tau = 3$

The potential across the capacitor can be mathematically represented as

$V = V_o (1 - e^{- \tau})$

Where $V_o$ is the voltage of the capacitor when it is fully charged

So at $\tau = 3$

$V = V_o (1 - e^{- 3})$

$V = 0.950213 V_o$

Generally energy stored in a capacitor is mathematically represented as

$E = \frac{1}{2 } * C * V ^2$

In this equation the energy stored is directly proportional to the the square of the potential across the capacitor

Now since capacitance is constant at $\tau = 3$

The energy stored can be evaluated at as

$V^2 = (0.950213 V_o )^2$

$V^2 = 0.903 V_o ^2$

Hence the fraction of the energy stored in an initially uncharged capacitor is

$k = 0.903$

Simple machines are divided into two main categories. Levers and inclined planes. True or false

avanturin [10]

The answer is False. Simple machines are divided into three main categories, and not two. They are Levers, inclined planes and Pulleys. These three simple machines all change force in such a way that it makes it easier for us to move an object.
