Answer:

A circuit breaker is a switching mechanism that interrupts the current that is irregular or fault. It is a mechanical system that interferes with high magnitude (fault) current flow and also performs a transfer operation. Hope this helps :)

Answer:

A circuit breaker is an electrical switch designed to protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by an overcurrent or short circuit.

Explanation:

Its basic function is to interrupt current flow after protective relays detect a fault.

Answer:

The tension in the cord is $T=\frac{MR^{2}g }{2b^{2}+R^{2} }$

Explanation:

Given:

M = mass

b = radius

R = spool of radius

The equation is:

$bT=(\frac{MR^{2} }{2} )(\frac{a}{b} )\\T=\frac{MR^{2}a }{2b^{2} }$ (eq. 1)

The sum of forces in y:

∑Fy = Mg - T = Ma

$Mg=(M+\frac{MR^{2} }{2b^{2} } )a\\a=\frac{2b^{2}g }{2b^{2}+R^{2} }$

Replacing in eq. 1

$T=\frac{MR^{2} }{2b^{2} } (\frac{2b^{2}g }{2b^{2} +R^{2} } )\\T=\frac{MR^{2}g }{2b^{2}+R^{2} }$

Answer:

2.4 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved.

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

(0.08 kg)(0.5 m/s) + (0.05 kg)(0 m/s) = (0.08 kg)(-0.1 m/s) + (0.05 kg) v

0.04 kg m/s = -0.08 kg m/s + (0.05 kg) v

0.12 kg m/s = (0.05 kg) v

v = 2.4 m/s

A box slides down a ramp inclined at 24◦ to the horizontal with an acceleration of 1.7 m/s 2 . The acceleration of gravity is 9.

Answer:

Explanation:

In friction, the coefficient of friction formula is expressed as;

$\mu = \frac{F_f}{R}$

Ff is the frictional force = Wsinθ

R is the reaction = Wcosθ

Substitute inti the equation;

$\mu = \frac{Wsin \theta}{W cos\theta} \\\mu = \frac{sin \theta}{cos\theta} \\\mu = tan \theta$

Given

θ = 24°

$\mu = tan 24^0\\\mu = 0.445\\$

Hence the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the ramp is 0.445
