In a house, a circuit often includes multiple electrical outlets which are parallelconnected to a single voltage source. Each of

these circuits also contains a 15-A circuit breaker. Design a parallel-connected circuit which shows three electrical outlets connected to a voltage source with a circuit breaker. What is the advantage of having outlets parallel-connected, and why is a circuit breaker connected in series with the voltage source

Answer:

In parallel circuits, if one element has a problem, it can be eliminated and the rest of the elements continue to work.

Explanation:

There are two ways to connect electrical circuits, in series and in parallel.

Series circuits have the problem that when one element is damaged, the entire circuit is interrupted and runs out of power.

In parallel circuits, if one element has a problem, it can be eliminated and the rest of the elements continue to work.

In Breaker it is connected in series so that when some maintenance is needed, all the energy can be interrupted simultaneously and if some equipment tries to consume a lot of energy, the circuit prevents this action by interrupting the energy of the entire circuit

Two boxes (m1 = 43.0 kg and m2 = 39.5 kg) are connected by a light string that passes over a light, frictionless pulley. One box
wlad13 [49]
The net force on the system:
F = m₂g - m₁gsin(∅)
F = 39.5 x 9.81 - 43 x 9.81 x sin(30)
F = 176.58 N

Now, we use F = ma to find the acceleration on each mass.
F = m₁a₁
a₁ = 176.58 / 43
a₁ = 4.11 m/s²

F = m₂a₂
a₂ = 176.58 / 39.5
a₂ = 4.47 m/s²

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

acceleraions 5.76g and 20.55g

Explanation:

This constant acceleration exercise can be solved using the kinematic equations in one dimension

    Vf = Vo + a t

As part of the rest Vo = 0

    a = Vf / t

    a = 282/5

    a = 56.4 m / s2

In relation to the acceleration of gravity

    a ’= a / g = 56.4 / 9.8

    a ’= 5.76g

To calculate the acceleration to stop we use the same formula

     a2 = 282 / 1.40

     a2 = 201.4 m / s2

 This acceleration of gravity acceleration function is

     a2 ’= 201.4 / 9.8

     a2 ’= 20.55g

Walking at a speed of 2.1 m/s, in the first 2 s John would have walked

(2.1 m/s) (2 s) = 4.2 m

Take this point in time to be the starting point. Then John's distance from the starting line at time <em>t</em> after the first 2 s is

<em>J(t)</em> = 4.2 m + (2.1 m/s) <em>t</em>

while Ryan's position is

<em>R(t)</em> = 100 m - (1.8 m/s) <em>t</em>

where Ryan's velocity is negative because he is moving in the opposite direction.

(b) Solve for the time when they meet. This happens when <em>J(t)</em> = <em>R(t)</em> :

4.2 m + (2.1 m/s) <em>t</em> = 100 m - (1.8 m/s) <em>t</em>

(2.1 m/s) <em>t</em> + (1.8 m/s) <em>t</em> = 100 m - 4.2 m

(3.9 m/s) <em>t</em> = 95.8 m

<em>t</em> = (95.8 m) / (3.9 m/s) ≈ 24.6 s

(a) Evaluate either <em>J(t)</em> or <em>R(t)</em> at the time from part (b).

<em>J</em> (24.6 s) = 4.2 m + (2.1 m/s) (24.6 s) ≈ 55.8 m

1. Spring force is proportional to stretch distance, F=kd. Do you expect doubling the stretch distance double the force?
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

The spring force is given as:

          F  = kd

F is the spring force

K is the spring constant

d is the magnitude of the stretch

 Since k is a constant, therefore, doubling the stretch distance will double the force.

Both stretch distance and force applied can be said to be directly proportional to one another.
