Two identical appliances are connected to the same household circuit and the circuit breaker trips. Which of the following is tr

ue (there may be more than one correct answer) (2 points): (A) If the breaker is reset and only one appliance is connected, the breaker will not trip. (B) Connecting only one appliance on this circuit might not trip the breaker again. (C) Each appliance had too low a resistance to work with a normal 120-V circuit breaker. (D) The appliances together had a total resistance that was too low to work with a normal 120-V circuit breaker.

Answer:

Explanation:

Circuit breaker trips due to excess current . Appliances are connected in parallel in which resistance becomes less . If only one appliance is connected then the current becomes low because of high resistance due to only one appliance . So breaker may not trip or may trip because resistance of  even single appliance may be quite low so current may still be high.

So B ) is  correct .

So C ) is also correct.

So D ) is also correct.

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

(c) 10.29 J

(d) 113.19 J

(e) 113.19 J

(f) 10061 N/m

Explanation:

15 cm = 0.15 m

Let g = 9.8 m/s2

(c) The work done by gravitational force is the product of gravity force and the distance compressed

E_p = mgx = 7*9.8*0.15 = 10.29 J

(d) By using law of energy conservation with potential energy reference being 0 at the maximum compression point. As the ball falls and come to a stop at the compression point, its potential energy is transferred to elastic energy, which is the work that the mattress does on the ball:

E_p = E_e

E_e = mgh

where h = 1.5 + 0.15 = 1.65 m is the vertical distance that it falls.

E_e = 7*9.8*1.65 = 113.19 J

(e) Before the compression, the potential energy of the mattress is 0. After the compression, the potential energy is 113.19J. So it has increased by 113.19J due to the potential energy transferred from the falling ball.

(f) E_e = 113.19 = kx^2/2

k0.15^2/2 = 113.19

k = 10061 N/m

A box with mass m is dragged across a level floor with coefficient of kinetic friction μk by a rope that is pulled upward at an
Komok [63]

Answer:

a) F =  μk  mg Cosθ

b) F = 279.78 N

Explanation:

a) F = μk R

Based on the description in the question, the horizontal reaction is:

R = mg Cosθ

The force required to move the box with constant speed in terms of m, μk, θ, and g is :

F =  μk  mg Cosθ

b) If m = 90 kg

g = 9.8 m/s²

μk=0.35

θ = 25⁰

Force required to slide the 90-kg patient across a floor at constant speed by pulling on him at an angle of 25∘ above the horizontal will be:

F =  μk  mg Cosθ

F = 0.35 * 90 * 9.8 * cos25

F = 279.78 N
