How does a fuse differ from a circuit breaker

Physics
2 answers:
Ugo [173]3 years ago

Answer:

They both interrupt the flow of electricity, but in very different ways from each other. While a fuse is made of a piece of metal that melts when overheated, circuit breakers on the other hand, have internal switch mechanisms that can be tripped by an unsafe surge of electricity

Answer: A fuse must be replaced after use, but a circuit breaker can be reset.

A fish can travel 30km/h in still water. How long will it take to arrive 12km downstream in a river flowing 6km/h?
kodGreya [7K]
30 + 6 = 36

36/12 = 3



So, it would take it 3 hours to go 12 kms downstream.



Note that we added 30 and 6 because it was going downstream. If it was going upstream, then we would have had to subtract.

You overhear two students discussing the topic of Doppler shift.
9966 [12]

Answer:

agree with student 2, disagree with student 1

Explanation:

If you want to know if the wavelength of light was shifted you have to know the original wavelengths

Since we know the absorption spectrum for elements like hydrogen, we can look for these absorption lines in the star's spectra and figure out what direction these lines are shifted and tell if the star is moving away or towards us

The color of the star refers to the temperature of the star's surface which is not related to the doppler shift of the star

You punt a ball straight up at 20 m/s. What is the balls hangtime
Natalija [7]

The hang time of the ball is 4.08 s

Explanation:

The ball is in free fall motion: this means that it is acted upon gravity only, so its acceleration is the acceleration of gravity,

a=g=-9.8 m/s^2

downward (the negative sign refers to the downward direction).

Since this is a uniformly accelerated motion, we can solve the problem by using the following suvat equation:

v=u+at

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

First we calculate the time it takes for the ball to reach the maximum height, where the velocity is zero:

v = 0

Substituting:

u = +20 m/s

a=-9.8 m/s^2

we find t

t=\frac{v-u}{a}=\frac{0-20}{-9.8}=2.04 s

The motion of the ball is symmetrical, so the total time of flight is just twice the time needed to reach the maximum height, therefore:

T=2t=2(2.04)=4.08 s
