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

08-volt, 3-phase squirrel-cage motor. Calculate the maximum rating permitted for the circuit breaker.

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

<em>{if 208V is phase to neutral voltage, then use following formula:</em>

<em> Rated Power (watt) = 3 . V.I. cosФ}</em>

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

Rated Current = <u>62.169A</u>

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.

A car traveling at 27.4 m/s hits a bridge abutment. A passenger in the car, who has a mass of 65.0 kg, moves forward a distance
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

F=43570.9N

Explanation:

We can calculate the acceleration experimented by the passenger using the formula v_f^2=v_i^2+2ad, taking the initial direction of movement as the positive direction and considering it comes to a rest:

a=\frac{v_f^2-v_i^2}{2d}=\frac{-v_i^2}{2d}

Then we use Newton's 2nd Law to calculate the force the passenger of mass m experimented to have this acceleration:

F=ma=\frac{-mv_i^2}{2d}

Which for our values is:

F=\frac{-(65kg)(27.4m/s)^2}{2(0.56m)}=43570.9N

If the moon is a full moon tonight what will be the moon one week later waxing or waning
tatiyna

-- Starting from nothing (New Moon), the moon's shape grows ('waxes')
for half of the cycle, until it's full, and then it shrinks ('wanes') for the next
half of the cycle.

-- The moon's complete cycle of phases runs 29.53 days . . . roughly
four weeks.

-- So, beginning from New Moon, it spends about two weeks waxing until
it's full, and then another two weeks waning until it's all gone again.
 
-- After a Full Moon, the moon is waning for the next two weeks.  So it's
definitely <em>waning</em> at <em><u>one week</u></em> after Full.

How do altitude temperature and air pressure relate
kiruha [24]
They relate because the further up you go, the colder it gets, and the air pressure decreases the further up you go. The altitude temperature and the air pressure both decrease, and that is their relationship. Altitude temperature decreases, the higher you go, and air pressure also decreases, the higher up you go. Therefore, the lower down you go, the higher the air pressure, and the higher the altitude temperature.

Hope this helps and have a nice day:)
