Technician A says a short to voltage may or may not blow a fuse and may or may not affect more than one circuit. Technician B sa

ys that a short to ground​ (grounded) will usually cause a decrease in circuit resistance and an increase in current flow causing the fuse to blow. Which technician is​ correct?
A. Technician A only
B. Technician B only
C. Both A and B
D. Neither A nor B

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.

Problem 2: (15 pts) A 10-m high cylindrical container is half-filled at the bottom with water of density =1000 kg/m3 while the t
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

\Delta p = 90.7 kPa

Explanation:

specific gravity of oil is = \frac{\rho_{oil}}{\rho_w}

\rho_{oil} = 0.85*1000 = 850 kg/m3

we know that

change in pressure  for oil is given as

\Delta p = \rho gh

here density and h is for oil

\Delta p = 850*5 *9.81 = 41,692.5 kPa

change in pressure  for WATER is given as

\Delta p = \rho gh

here density is for water and h is for water

\Delta p = 1000*5 *9.81 = 49,050 kPa

pressure change due to both is given as

\Delta p = 41692.3 + 49050 = 90742.5 N/m2

\Delta p = 90.7 kPa

How do we know what is inside of Earth ?
Maslowich

Answer:

Most of what we know about the interior of the Earth comes from the study of seismic waves from earthquakes. Seismic waves from large earthquakes pass throughout the Earth. These waves contain vital information about the internal structure of the Earth.

If your friend drops a chocolate bar to you from a height of 5.0 m above your hands,
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

<h3>1.01 s</h3>

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion S = ut+1/2gt² to solve the problem where;

u is the initial velocity of the chocolate = 0m/s

t is the time taken

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81m/s²

S is the height of fall = 5.0m

Substituting the given parameter into the formula to get the time t we have;

5 = 0(t)+1/2(9.81)t²

5 = 4.905t²

t² = 5/4.905

t² = 1.019

t = √1.019

t = 1.009 secs

<em>Hence it will take 1.01 secs for me to catch the chocolate bar</em>

niobium metal becomes a superconductor when cooled below 9 k. its superconductivity is destroyed when the surface magnetic field
Furkat [3]

Niobium wire with a 2.60 mm diameter has a maximum current capacity of 500 A while still remaining superconducting.

<h3>Describe the present.</h3>

Current is the rate at which charge passes from one point on a circuit to another. In a circuit, a significant current flows when several coulombs or charge pass over the cross section of a wire. When the charge carriers are firmly packed inside the wire, high currents can be generated at low speeds.

<h3>What do current and electron actually mean?</h3>

Electron movement is referred to as electron current. The positive terminal receives electrons that are released by the negative terminal. Traditional current, usually referred to as just current, exhibits behavior consistent with positive charge carriers being the source of current flow. Regular current is received at the positive end and then flows to a negative terminal.
