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:
4800
Explanation:
The change in velocity of the car is 17-13=4m/s. Since the change in momentum is the mass multiplied by the change in velocity, the answer is 4*1200=4800. Hope this helps!
Answer: Skilled manpower is essential to carry out several development activities.
Explanation:
Answer:
The boat will be 74 .17 meters downstream by the time it reaches the shore.
Explanation:
Consider the vector diagrams for velocity and distance shown below.
converting 72 miles per hour to km/hr
we have 72 miles per hour 72 × 1.60934 = 115.83 km/hr
The velocity vectors form a right angled triangle, and can be solved using simple trigonometric laws
This is the vector angle with which the ship drifts away with respect to its northward direction.
<em>From the sketch of the displacement vectors, we can use trigonometric ratios to determine the distance the boat moves downstream.</em>
Let x be the distance the boat moves downstream.d
∴The boat will be 74 .17 meters downstream by the time it reaches the shore.
