As the name states, during a ground-fault (when the current going out is significantly different than the current going in) the GCFI interupts the current.  Usually by a switch of some sort.  (Pushing the "test" button produces that click, and cuts off the current)

Answer:

Interrupts the current ( B )

Explanation:

The Ground fault circuit interrupter is integrated into the outlet of the electrical system in a building. its main function is to monitor the incoming electric current and the outgoing electric current in the building. if there is any imbalance detected by the GCFI it shuts out/interrupts the current flow in the building.

this interruption in the current flow is to protect the equipment, the house and the receptacles found in the building against possible overheating which might lead to fire outbreak in the building.also if the insulation of the cables used in the building is worn out it can also lead to the GCFI  tripping current flow as well.

100 students were asked to fill out a form with three survey questions, as follows: H: Honor Roll C: Club membership (Robotics C
finlep [7]

Answer:

1. 45

2. 9

3. 11

4. 17

Explanation:

Given  the following:

28 checked H

26 checked C

14 checked D

8 checked H and C

4 checked H and D

3 checked C and D

2 checked all.

Hence N(H) = 28

N(C) = 26

N(D) = 14

N(H U C) = 8

N(H U D) = 4

N(C U D) = 3

N(H U C U D) = 2

We also know that

Total = N(H) + N(C) + N(D) - N(H U C) - N(H U D) - N(C U D) + N(H U C U D)

Substituting the given values, we obtain

Total = 55

1. Students that didn't check any box = 100 - 55 = 45 students

2.  Students who checked exactly two box

=  N(H U C)  + N(H U D) + N(C U D) - 3N(H U C U D) (from probability theorem)

Substituting the values, we have 8 + 4 + 3 - 6 = 9 students

3. Students who checked atleast two box =

The people who have checked all three are needed to be calculated once. Earlier, we subtracted them thrice so we add one time

 N(H U C)  + N(H U D) + N(C U D) - 2N(H U C U D) = 8 + 4 + 3 - 4 = 11 students

4.  Given N(C) = 26

We subtract N(CUD) and N(HUC) as they have checked another apart from club.

 26 -8 - 3 = 15

Now we could notice we have subtracted N(HUCUD) twice in both categories, so we add one time to neutralise

15 + 2 = 17

Hence N(only C) = 17 students.

Where should fire extinguishers be stored on a boat?
fomenos

<span>Fire extinguishers should be stored in a boat at the engine area and near the operator. A fire extinguisher should be put near the engine because the engine of the boat is a fire hazardous place and this is the area where a fire could start.  The fire extinguisher should be installed properly using a mounting bracket to hold the extinguisher in place. There are different types of extinguishers that should be installed in the boat, these are type A, B, and C extinguishers. Type A extinguishers can turn off the fire caused by combustible solids like wood and paper. Type B extinguishers can turn off fire caused by gasolines, oil, and greases. While Type C extinguishers can turn off fire caused by an electrical problem.</span>
