Answer:

C. Both A and B

Explanation:

Fuses are rated by the amperage they can carry before heat melts the element. The fuse is ideal for protection against short circuits. Short circuits produce enough amperage to vaporize a fuse element and break connection in one cycle of a 60-cycle system.

Specifically, the voltage rating determines the ability of the fuse to suppress the internal arcing that occurs after a fuse link melts and an arc is produced.

What is the biggest disadvantage of solar electricity, or at least, why is it not used much more than it currently is?
Lesechka [4]
<span>The Solar electricity source of energy comes from the sun’s rays. It is more often in the form of a panel known as the solar panel. It has a photovoltaic system that generates and supplies energy in commercial and residential areas. Even though numerous countries are using this type of electricity to save electric-induced power, it is not used for a number of reasons. One is that 1 panel with a size of 6 by 10 solar cells is expensive. There are countries who cannot afford to buy them. Two, it requires a larger area to place the panel. Three, the efficiency is low. The smaller the panel is, the lower its efficiency and therefore produces lesser power to generate a specific area.  </span>

What is the magnitude of the minimum magnetic field that will keep the particle moving in the earth's gravitational field in the
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

The magnitude of the magnetic field vector is 1.91T and is directed towards the east.

The steps to the solution can be found in the attachment below.

Explanation:

For the charge to remain in the the earth' gravitational field the magnetic force on the charge must be equal to the earth's gravitational force on the charge and must act opposite the direction of the earth's gravitational force.

Fm = Fg

qvBSin(theta) = mg

Where q = magnitude of charge

v = magnitude of the velocity vector = 4 x10^4 m/s

B = magnitude of the magnetic field vector

theta = the angle between the magnetic field and velocity vectors = 90°

m = mass of the charge = 0.195g

g = acceleration due to gravity =9.8m/s²

On substituting the respective values of all variables in the equation (1) above

B = 1.91T

The direction of the magnetic field vector was found by the application of the right hand rule: if the thumb is pointed in the direction of the magnetic force and the index finger is pointed in the direction of the velocity vector, the middle finger points in the direction of the magnetic field.

Below is the step by step procedure to the solution.

A solenoid with 3,000.0 turns is 70.0 cm long. If its self-inductance is 25.0 mH, what is 5) its radius? (The value of o is 4 ×
Elan Coil [88]
The self-inductance of a solenoid is given by:
L= \frac{\mu_0 N^2 A}{l}
where
\mu_0 is the vacuum permeability
N is the number of turns
A is the cross-sectional area of the solenoid
l is the length of the solenoid

For the solenoid in our problem, N=3000, l=70.0 cm=0.70 m and the self-inductance is L=25.0 mH=0.025 H, therefore the cross-sectional area is
A= \frac{Ll}{\mu N^2}= \frac{(0.025 H)(0.70 m)}{(4\pi \cdot 10^{-7}N/A^2)(3000)^2}= 1.55 \cdot 10^{-3}m^2
And since the area is related to the radius by
A=\pi r^2
The radius of the solenoid is
r= \sqrt{ \frac{A}{\pi} } = \sqrt{ \frac{1.55 \cdot 10^{-3} m^2}{\pi} } =0.022 m=2.2 cm

Which forces are shown on a free body diagram?
notsponge [240]

Answer:

What is a Free Body Diagram?

The free body diagram helps you understand and solve static and dynamic problem involving forces. It is a diagram including all forces acting on a given object without the other object in the system. You need to first understand all the forces acting on the object and then represent these force by arrows in the direction of the force to be drawn.
