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.

A camera takes a properly exposed photo with a 4.0 mm diameter aperture and a shutter speed of 1/1000 s. If the photographer foc
hoa [83]

Answer:

option E

Explanation:

given,

diameter = 4 mm

shutter speed = 1/1000 s

diameter of aperture = ?

shutter speed = 1/250 s

exposure time to the shutter time

E V = log_2(\dfrac{N^2}{t})

N is the diameter of the aperture and t is the time of exposure

now,

log_2(\dfrac{N^2}{t_1})=log_2(\dfrac{N^2}{t_2})

\dfrac{N_1^2}{t_1}=\dfrac{N_2^2}{t_2}

inserting all the values

\dfrac{4^2}{1000}=\dfrac{N_2^2}{250}

      N₂² = 4

      N₂ = 2 mm

hence , the correct answer is option E
