Why are circuit breakers and fuses important?

Physics
1 answer:
Lesechka [4]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

A fuse and circuit breaker both serve to protect an overloaded electrical circuit by interrupting the continuity, or the flow of electricity. ... Fuses tend to be quicker to interrupt the flow of power, but must be replaced after they melt, while circuit breakers can usually simply be reset.

Electricity is the movement of _____ from one atom to another along a conductor.
prohojiy [21]

The sentence can be completed as follows:

"Electricity is the movement of charges from one atom to another along a conductor."


The movement of the the charges is due to the presence of a potential difference across the conductor, which pushes the charges. More specifically, in normal conductors, the carriers of electricity are the electrons. Therefore we can rewrite the sentence as

"Electricity is the movement of electrons from one atom to another along a conductor."

A cart is pulled by a force of 250 N at an angle of 35° above the horizontal. The cart accelerates at 1.4 m/s2. The free-body di
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

m=146.277kg which is rounded to 146kg

Explanation:

Remember that F=ma

But F represents not 250N, but 250cos(35)N since the force is being pulled above the horizontal.

So 250cos(35)=204.7880111 approximately, and since a=1.4m/s^2, we have 204.7880111=m(1.4m/s^2). Then we divide both sides by the acceleration to get the mass. So m=146.2771508kg which the nearest number is 146kg

Mass is always in kg, unless stated otherwise.

Answer:

See below ~

Explanation:

An object will sink in water when its density is greater than that of water, which is 1 g/cm³.

Volume of the box is <u>1331 cm³</u>. (11³)

Maximum mass of sand will be 1331 g. [because 1331/1331 = 1 g/cm³]

  • Volume of sand = Mass of sand / Density of sand
  • Volume (sand) = 1331/3.5
  • Volume (sand) = 380.29 cm³

If the volume of sand is <u>greater than 380.29 cm³</u>, the box will sink in water.
