Answer:

A Shunt is a passive element, usually resistive, that is used to bypass current around another element, like a meter, that is not able to handle the full current flow. ... A Multiplier is an active element that amplifies a voltage or current to enable a less sensitive device or circuit to make use of it.

Explanation:

A Shunt is a passive element, usually resistive, that is used to bypass current around another element, like a meter, that is not able to handle the full current flow.

The voltage equivalent of this is the voltage Divider, once again usually resistive, which is used to block excessive voltage from an element that is not able to withstand the whole voltage.

A Multiplier is an active element that amplifies a voltage or current to enable a less sensitive device or circuit to make use of it.

The product PV, where P and V represent pressure and volume respectively, is a unit for which?
Basile [38]
<span>PV is actually energy. P = F/A force per area, and V = A L, so PV = F L and force times distance is work which is energy. If you have P in N/m^2 and V in m^3, you have Joules, N-m.</span>

A man walks 7 km, east in 2 hours and 2 km in 1 hour in the same direction. a) what is
Rzqust [24]

Explanation:

Average speed = distance / time

|v| = (7 km + 2 km) / (2 hr + 1 hr)

|v| = 3 km/hr

Average velocity = displacement / time

v = (7 km east + 2 km east) / (2 hr + 1 hr)

v = 3 km/hr east

Real bodies emit and absorb more radiation than a blackbody at the same temperature. True or False
monitta

Answer: False

Explanation:

Relative to the concept of radiations, a black body is an object capable of absorbing any form of electromagnetic radiation irrespective of its frequency or angle of incidence when incident on such object.

However, the same cannot be said about real bodies as real bodies are those which reflect all rays incident on them completely and uniformly in all directions.

One very important characteristic of black bodies is that they are ideal emmiters.

The concept of emmisivity is brought about by the existence of real bodies .

This is due to the fact that they are only able to emit radiation at a fraction of the black body energy levels.

Please note that by convention, the emmisivity of a real body is always less thaan 1.

As such they are not able to emit as much radiation as a black body at the same temperature.
