What the minimum wire size for a general residential application on a 20 A circuit

Engineering
1 answer:
prisoha [69]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The minimum wire size for a 20 A circuit would be 14 gauge wire. However modern fire and building (in the United States) code dictates that 12 gauge wire be used for 20 A. This is for added safety because there is a chance that 14 gauge wire can be overloaded by 20 A if the situation is right.

What will the following segment of code output? score = 95; if (score > 95) cout << "Congratulations!\n"; cout <<
Anarel [89]

Answer:

That's a high score!

This is a test question!

Explanation:

The reason these two lines are printed and not the first one is simple. After the 'IF' condition has been stated, there is no use of parenthesis such as { and } to enclose the next lines. This means that only the first line after the 'IF' condition may be read or skipped depending on whether the condition (score>95) is met. Since the score is not larger than 95, and the 'IF' condition fails, the line 'Congratulations!' is not printed. The next two lines of the code are read as normal because they do not depend on the 'IF' condition.
