Given that metal cases of electrical appliances are connected to the wire, let's select the statement which is not correct from the list of statements.
The earth wire is used to protect you and help reduce the risk of receiving an electric shock. The earth wire reduces the risk of electric shock by creating a path for a fault or lose current to flow to the Earth.
The Live wire may become loose and touch the metal case. In this case, the earth wire will channel the fault current to the earth thereby reducing the risk of electric shock.
If the metal case becomes live, the earth wire conducts current to the ground. This helps prevent electric shock from the metal case.
The Earth wire has low or no resistance. It is always made of copper.
It provides a low resistance path to the ground.
Therefore, the statement ''the earth wire needs to have high resistance'' is NOT current.
ANSWER:
C. The earth wire needs to have a high reistance.
Answer:
The car must be moving away from the person.
Explanation:
From Doppler's Effect, we know that when a sound source moves towards a stationary observer, the apparent frequency of that sound increases. While the apparent frequency decreases if the source moves away from the stationary observer.
The audible range of frequencies for a human ear is 20 Hz to 20000 Hz. Therefore, in order for the sound of a loud speaker to be audible for the person, the frequency must decrease below 20000 Hz.
<u>Due to this reason, the car must be moving away from the person.</u>
They are both in motion because an object is not at rest, but moving so slow it could be at rest. A car going at the same constant velocity is neither speeding up or slowing down, an object "at rest" is also moving at a constant rate, not speeding up or slowing done.
Answer:
An object is in motion when its distance from another object is changing. ... A reference point is a place or object used for comparison to determine if something is in motion. An object is in motion if it changes position relative to a reference point. You assume that the reference point is stationary, or not moving.
