In a case where electrical current leakage from the circuit occurs, the GFCI would do the following:
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

Sense the current leakage

Trip the circuit

Cut off the electricity

Explanation:

The correct order is -

Sense the current leakage

Trip the circuit

Cut off the electricity

Reason -

First step has to be taken to sense the electric current leakage without it being detected, it cant be dealt with.

The second step consists of tripping the  circuit so at to remove the flow of electricity.

The third step is to Cut the electricity off so to stop the leakage and be safe.

The ________________ attraction between the Earth and the moon is ______________ on the side of the Earth that happens to be ___
Karolina [17]

Answer:

Gravitational; strongest; facing; closer; near side; toward.

Explanation:

The gravitational attraction between the Earth and the moon is strongest on the side of the Earth that happens to be facing the moon, simply because it is closer. This attraction causes the water on this “near side” of Earth to be pulled toward the moon. These forces of attraction and inertia tends to keep the water in place and consequently, leads to a bulge of water on the near side with respect to the moon.

Also, you should note that what is responsible for the moon being in orbit around the Earth is the gravitational force of attraction between the two planetary bodies (Earth and Moon).

A satellite is launched 600 km from the surface of the earth, with an initial velocity of 8333.3 m./s, acting parallel to the ta
Vikki [24]

Answer:

eccentrcity of orbit is 0.22

Explanation:

GIVEN DATA:

Initial velocity of satellite = 8333.3 m/s

distance from the sun is 600 km

radius of earth is 6378 km

as satellite is acting parallel to the earth therefore\theta angle = 0

and radial component of given velocity is zero

we haveh = r_o v_r_o = 6378+600 =6.97*10^6 m

h = 6.97*10^6 *8333.3 = 58.08*10^9 m^2/s

we know that

\frac{1}{r} =\frac{GM}{h^2} \times ( i + \epsilon cos\theta)

GM = gr^2 = 9.81*(6.37*10^6)^2 = 398*10^{12} m^3/s

so

\frac{1}{6.97*10^6} =\frac{398*10^{12}}{(58.08*10^9)^2} \times ( i + \epsilon cos0)

solvingt for \epsilon)

\epsilon = 0.22)

therefore eccentrcity of orbit is 0.22

A program contains the following function definition: int cube(int number) { return number * number * number; } Write a stateme
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

The statement can be written as

int result = cube(4);

Explanation:

A function is a block of reusable codes to perform some tasks. For example, the function in the question is to calculate the cube of a number.

A function can also operate on one or more input value (argument) and return a result. The <em>cube </em>function in the question accept one input value through its parameter <em>number </em>and the <em>number</em> will be multiplied by itself twice and return the result.  

To call a function, just simply write the function name followed with parenthesis (e.g. <em>cube()</em>). Within the parenthesis, we can include zero or one or more than one values as argument(s) (e.g. <em>cube(4)</em>).

We can then use the "=" operator to assign the return output of the function to a variable (e.g. <em>int result = cube(4)</em>)

A 1-kW electric resistance heater submerged in 10-kg water is turned on and kept on for 15 min. During the process, 400 kJ of he
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

ΔT=  11.94 °C

Explanation:

Given that

mass of water = 10 kh

Time t= 15 min

Heat lot from water = 400  KJ

Heat input to the water = 1  KW

Heat input the water= 1 x 15 x 60

                                =900 KJ

By heat balancing

Heat supply - heat rejected = Heat gain by water

As we know that heat capacity of water

C_p=4.187 \frac{KJ}{kg-K}

Q=mC_p\Delta T

Now by putting the values

900 - 400 = 10 x 4.187 x ΔT

So  rise in temperature of water ΔT=  11.94 °C
