Answer:
Explanation:
The region around a charged particle where another charged particle experiences a force of attraction or repulsion is called electric field.
The strength of electric field is defined as the force experienced by the unit positive test charge.
E = F / q
Electric field strength is a vector quantity and it is measured in newton per coulomb.
Where, F is the force of attraction or repulsion between the two charges and q is the test charge on which the electric field strength is to be calculated.
The strength of electric field is more if the field is strong. It means more be the electric field strength at a point more be the electric field.
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:
E. The wheel with spokes has about twice the KE.
