GFCI outlets are found in wet areas is the true statement about a GFCI oulet

Answer: Option D.

Explanation:

GFCI stands for Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter and also named as RCD (Residual Current Device). This is a kind of circuit breaker that cuts off electricity after detecting an imbalance between output and input currents. The switch protects household lines and sockets against overheating and possible fire.

GFCI protects the people and is mostly used in bathrooms or kitchen where electrical equipment is used. Also, it is available where the human body can get into contact with the floor or metal fixings that provide an alternative route to power in the event of a fault. These outlets are available in two versions: the circuit breaker installed in the control panel and receptacle type installed into the electrical box.

The velocity of an object is positive and steadily increasing. Which of the following graphs represents how the acceleration of

stiv31 [10]

If an object's velocity is steadily increasing it means that the acceleration is constant at a certain value.

Choice A shows an acceleration of zero which would only be true if the object was not moving or if its velocity was not changing.

Choice B gives us a graph showing acceleration increasing over time and is therefore incorrect.

Choice C is correct because the acceleration is constant. Steadily increasing tells us that the acceleration is fixed at a certain value.

Choice D is incorrect an represents a constant negative acceleration. This would be the case if the object was steadily decreasing in velocity.
