Answer:

The fuse breaks the circuit if a fault in an appliance causes too much current to flow. This protects the wiring and the appliance if something goes wrong. The fuse contains a piece of wire that melts easily.

In electronics and electrical engineering, a fuse is an electrical safety device that operates to provide overcurrent protection of an electrical circuit. Its essential component is a metal wire or strip that melts when too much current flows through it, thereby stopping or interrupting the current

A point charge q = +4.50 nC moves through a potential difference ΔV = Vf − Vi = +27.0 V. What is the change in the electric pote
olganol [36]

Change in electric potential energy: 121.5 nJ

Explanation:

For a charged particle moving in an electric field, the change in electric potential energy of the particle is given by

\Delta U = q \Delta V

where:

q is the charge of the particle

\Delta V is the potential difference between the initial and final position of the particle

For the point charge in this problem, we have:

q=+4.50 nC is the charge

\Delta V=+27.0 V is the potential difference

Therefore, the change in electric potential energy is

\Delta U=(+4.50)(+27.0)=121.5 nJ

on a very muddy football field, a 120 kg linebacker tackles an 75 kg halfback. immediately before the collision, the linebacker
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
B4 the tackle: 

<span>The linebacker's momentum = 115 x 8.5 = 977.5 kg m/s north </span>

<span>and the halfback's momentum = 89 x 6.7 = 596.3 kg m/s east </span>


<span>After the tackle they move together with a momentum equal to the vector sum of their separate momentums b4 the tackle </span>

<span>The vector triangle is right angled: </span>

<span>magnitude of final momentum = √(977.5² + 596.3²) = 1145.034 kg m/s </span>

<span>so (115 + 89)v(f) = 1145.034 ←←[b/c p = mv] </span>

<span>v(f) = 5.6 m/s (to 2 sig figs) </span>


<span>direction of v(f) is the same as the direction of the final momentum </span>

<span>so direction of v(f) = arctan (596.3 / 977.5) = N 31° E (to 2 sig figs) </span>


<span>so the velocity of the two players after the tackle is 5.6 m/s in the direction N 31° E </span>




<span>btw ... The direction can be given heaps of different ways ... N 31° E is probably the easiest way to express it when using the vector triangle to find it</span>
