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

Answer: Option D.

<u>Explanation: </u>

            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.

A circuit has two 4Ω resistors in series with each other. What is the total resistance?
Paha777 [63]

Answer: 8Ω

Explanation:

Since there are two resistors of 4Ω

connected in series, the total resistance (Rtotal) of the circuit is the sum of each resistance.

i.e Rtotal = R1 + R2

R1 = 4Ω

R2 = 4Ω

Rtotal = ?

Rtotal = 4Ω + 4Ω

Rtotal = 8Ω

Thus, the total resistance of the circuit is 8Ω

A 20-lb force acts to the west while an 80-lb force acts 45° east of north. The magnitu 80 lb 70 lb 067 lb 100 lb
natulia [17]

Answer:

option C

Explanation:

given,

force act on west  = 20 lb

force act at 45° east of north = 80 lb

magnitude of force = ?

∑ F y  =  80 cos 45⁰

    F y =  56.57 lb

magnitude of forces in x- direction

∑ F x = -20 + 80 sin 45⁰

        = 36.57 lb

net force

F = \sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2}

F = \sqrt{56.57^2+36.57^2}

F = 67.36 lb≅ 67 lb

hence, the correct answer is option C

What happenes to our body temperature on a cold winter day or a hot summer day
viva [34]

In cold winter day, the body temperature falls down from normal temperature of 98.6°F (37°C) to 95°F (35°C). In winter body losses heat faster than it generates heat. If the temperature fall further below 95°F (35°C), it is emergency condition known as Hypothermia. One has to consult doctor in this case.

In summer hot days, body evaporates water in the form of sweat, in order to remain itself cool. Rise of temperature up to 100°F is normal. It is recommended to hydrate body to maintain temperature in summer days.
