Get a pull chord light switch installed in her bathroom by a qualified electrician asap. Meanwhile, keep hands as dry as possible, and try not to go near that switch until it's either been properly earthed, or whatever the problem actually is, and get qualified advice on what the problem is. Don't have wet feet either, and don't stand in puddles of water whilst operating - i she has to - the switch. 250V AC mains can be lethal, and at least painful.

Explanation :

Prevention that must follow by Alice are as follows :

(1) The first way to solve any electrical problems is to turn off the main source of electricity in your home.

(2) The electric devices must be kept away from water and from any moisture.

(3) She should install GFCI i.e. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters in her home. GFCI detects the leakage of current in the circuit.

(4)  When electric equipment fuses again and again. it is no longer only an accident - those are signs and symptoms that something is not going the right way.

These are some prevention that Alice must take in case of electric shock.

A. What is an electric field line?
Lorico [155]

Answer:

Please see below as the answers are self-explanatory

Explanation:

a)

  • A electric field line is an imaginary line, which has the property that the electric field vector is tangent to it at any point. It starts from positive charges (since the electric field by convention it has the direction of the trajectory that would take a positive test charge, so it always goes away from positive charges) and ends in negative charges.

b)

  • Since the potential difference between two points represents the work per unit charge needed for a charge to move between these points, a equipotential surface is the one over which it is not needed to do work to move a charge from any point on the surface to any other point, which means that all points are at the same potential.

c)

  • Equipotential surfaces are not necessarily physical surfaces, they can be defined in vaccum for instance.
  • As an example, any spherical surface concentric with a point charge, is an equipotential surface, and  it can be a real surface or a fictitious one.

Add vectors 7.5 m/s and the vector -2.9 m/s
densk [106]

How To:

How do you add two vectors?  

To add or subtract two vectors, add or subtract the corresponding components. Let →u=⟨u1,u2⟩ and →v=⟨v1,v2⟩ be two vectors. The sum of two or more vectors is called the resultant. The resultant of two vectors can be found using either the parallelogram method or the triangle method .
