What is electrical ground and why is it important?

Physics
1 answer:
Likurg_2 [28]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

One of the most important reasons for grounding electrical currents is that it protects your appliances, your home and everyone in it from surges in electricity. If lightning was to strike or the power was to surge at your place for whatever reason, this produces dangerously high voltages of electricity in your system.

The stone, which weighs 400 g, is thrown upwards at a speed of 20 m / s. Climbed to a height of 12 m. Determine: what is equal t
maxonik [38]

Given that,

Mass of the stone, m = 400 g = 0.4 kg

Initial speed, u = 20 m/s

It is climbed to a height of 12 m.

To find,

The work done by the resistance force.

Solution,

Let v is the final speed. It can be calculated by using the conservation of energy.

v=\sqrt{2gh} \\\\v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 12} \\\\v=15.33\ m/s

Work done is equal to the change in kinetic energy. It can be given as follows :

W=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)\\\\=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.4\times (15.33^2-20^2)\\\\=-32.99\ J

So, the required work done is 32.99 J.

One student did an experiment on the rock cycle.
Nonamiya [84]
First, when the student added the layers of wax over each other, this became a representation of sedimentary rocks.

Then the student folded his/her palm and squeezed the layers of wax. This means that the student applied heat and pressure on the wax (sedimentary rocks)

Referring to the diagram below which represents the rock cycle, we will find that applying heat and pressure on sedimentary rocks would convert these rocks into metamorphic rocks.

Based on the above, the best choice would be:
<span>d. Heat and pressure can change sedimentary rocks into metamorphic rocks.</span>

How does the increasing mass effect the force of an object in motion?​
irina [24]

Answer:

<u>According </u><u>to </u><u>second </u><u>law </u><u>of </u><u>motion</u><u>,</u><u>t</u><u>he acceleration of an object depends directly upon the net force acting upon the object, and inversely upon the mass of the object. As the force acting upon an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is increased. As the mass of an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is decreased.</u>

<em>So </em><em>simply</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>it </em><em>can </em><em>be </em><em>affected </em><em>due </em><em>to </em><em>increasing </em><em>force </em><em>as </em><em>there </em><em>is </em><em>close </em><em>relationship </em><em>between </em><em>momentum.</em>

Explanation:

<em>The more inertia that an object has, the more mass that it has. A more massive object has a greater tendency to resist changes in its state of motion.</em>

<em>I </em><em>hope </em><em>it </em><em>was </em><em>helpful </em><em>for </em><em>you </em><em>:</em><em>)</em>
