What is the purpose of the circuit breaker in your home?
To provide electricity to all of the electrical devices in your home.
To maximize the electrical efficiency of appliances plugged in.
To prevent too much current from traveling into the circuit, making the wire hot and starting a fire.
To irritate the %$&* out of you when they turn off.
Answer:
to prevent to much current
Explanation:
in the event of a power surge the circuit breaker will cut the power. this is what people mean when they say "pop" the breaker
Having greater or less electrons possessed by an object. Can attract or repel.
A. proton
B. magnetism
C. charge
D.magnet
Answer:
A. Proton
Explanation:
Given that an electron has a net negative charge equal in magnitude to the charge of a proton (1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹) but having an opposite (negative) sign to that of a proton, and given that like charges (negative to negative) repel and unlike charges attract, an object having;
Greater electron will be negatively charged relative to the other object, to which it is compare, which is a proton will attract the (positively charged) proton
Lesser negative charge compared to the proton; therefore, both objects will be positive, and they will repel each other
We therefore have;
Having greater or less electrons possessed by an object. Can attract or repel a proton
The correct option is option A. proton
A horse pulls a cart along a flat road. Consider the following four forces that arise in this situation. (1) the force of the horse pulling on the cart (2) the force of the cart pulling on the horse (3) the force of the horse pushing on the road (4) the force of the road pushing on the horse Suppose that the horse and cart have started from rest; and as time goes on, their speed increases in the same direction. Which one of the following conclusions is correct concerning the magnitudes of the forces mentioned above?
Complete Question: A horse pulls a cart along a flat road. Consider the following four forces that arise in this situation. (1) the force of the horse pulling on the cart (2) the force of the cart pulling on the horse (3) the force of the horse pushing on the road (4) the force of the road pushing on the horse Suppose that the horse and cart have started from rest; and as time goes on, their speed increases in the same direction. Which one of the following conclusions is correct concerning the magnitudes of the forces mentioned above?
A) Force 1 exceeds force 2.
B) Force 2 is less than force 3.
C) Force 2 exceeds force 4.
D) Force 3 exceeds force 4.
E) Forces 1 and 2 cannot have equal magnitudes.
Answer: B) Force 2 is less than force 3.
Explanation: From the given four forces to be considered, Force 2 is less than Force 3 is correct option.
After evaluating the forces one by one. Force 3 and Force 4 are the same, both have equal magnitude.
And Force 3 is greater than Force 2, i.e., the force of the horse pushing on the road is much higher than the cart pulling the horse. Hence, more forces is required to pull the cart while on the road towards forward direction.
More so, the force of the road pushing on the horse is greater than the force of the cart pulling on the horse.

You do: What is the Gravitational Potential Energy of a
120kg person who jumped out of a plane 4500m in the
air?
G
U
s
M
KE = 12my
GPE = mgh
Answer:
P = 5292 kJ
Explanation:
Given that,
The mass of a person, m = 120 kg
The height of the plane, h = 4500 m
The Gravitational Potential Energy of the person is given by :
P = mgh
Put all the values,
P = 120 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 4500 m
= 5292000 J
or
= 5292 kJ
So, the required gravitational potential energy is 5292 kJ.

why does pressure on Diver increases with depth?
Answer: the pressure increases with the amount of water pushing in on all sides of the diver, for example, when you jump into a pool and you head is above water it a little harder to breathe, it is the same way for divers when they are diving at increasingly deep depths, the deeper you are the more water is pressing in on you.

A person walks at a speed of 6 km/h from point A to point B. If he improves his pace by 1.5 km/h, he will arrive 1 hour earlier.
a) calculate the distance and time he intends to travel from a to b
b) the individual initially travels at v1=6 km/h for a distance s1, then pauses for 15 minutes to rest. So he goes at v2=7.5km/h for the rest of the route and arrives 30 minutes early than expected.
Answer:
a) The distance is 30 km
The time duration is 5 hours
b) s₁ is approximately 28.142 km or s₁ is approximately 1.505 km
Explanation:
The initial speed with of the person, v₁ = 6 km/h
The distance the walked by the person, d = From point A to point B
The rate at which the person increases the speed, Δv = 1.5 km/h
The time it takes for the person to arrive at point B from point A at the new speed, t₂ = 1 hour earlier than when walking at 6 km/h
a) Let t₁ represent the time it takes the person walking from point A to point B at 6 km/h, we have;
t₂ = t₁ - 1...(1)
d/t₁ = 6...(2)
d/t₂ = 6 + 1.5 = 7.5
∴ d/t₂ = 7.5...(3)
From equation (2), we have;
d = 6 × t₁ = 6·t₁
Plugging in d = 6·t₁, and t₂ = t₁ - 1 in equation (3) gives;
d/t₂ = 7.5
∴ 6·t₁/t₁ - 1 = 7.5
6·t₁ = 7.5 × (t₁ - 1) = 7.5·t₁ - 7.5
7.5·t₁ - 6·t₁ = 7.5
1.5·t₁ = 7.5
t₁ = 7.5/1.5 = 5
t₁ = 5
The time it takes the person walking from point A to point B at 6 km/h, t₁ = 5 hours
The distance from point A to point B, d = 6 km/h × 5 hours = 30 km
b) The distance the person travels at the initial speed, v₁ (6 km/h) = s₁
The duration the person pauses for a rest = 15 minutes = 1/4 hours
The speed with which he walks the rest of the journey, v₂ = 7.5 km/h
The time earlier than expected that he arrives, Δt = 30 minutes = 0.5 hours
We note that the total distance, d = 30 km
The expected time, t₁ = 5 hours
Therefore, we have;
s₁ + s₂ = 30 km
s₂ = 30 - s₁
v₁/s₁ + 1/4 + v₂/s₂ = t₁ - 0.5
Therefore;
6/s₁ + 1/4 + 7.5/(30 - s₁) = 5 - 0.5 = 4.5
6/28.142+ 1/4 + 7.5/(30 - 28.142) = 5 - 0.5 = 4.5
6/s₁ + 7.5/(30 - s₁) = 4.5 - 1/4 = 4.25
-(3·s₁ + 360)/(2·s₁²- 60·s₁) = 4.25
2·s₁²- 60·s₁) × 4.25 + 3·s₁ + 360 = 0
17·s₁²- 504·s₁ + 720 = 0
s₁ = (504 ± √((-504)² - 4 × 17 × 720))/(2 × 17)
s₁ ≈ 28.142 or s₁ = 1.505
The distance the individual travels at v₁ = 6 km/h, s₁ ≈ 28.142 km or 1.505 km
Select all the correct answers. Which statements about potential energy are true?
Answer: The statement gaining potential energy is always associated with a force field, is true about potential energy.
Explanation:
The energy acquired by an object due to its position is called potential energy.
Basically, a force field exerts a force that gives rise to potential energy of an object. For example, gravity, spring force etc.
This means that gaining potential energy is always associated with a force field.
A change in position does not always means that an object gains potential energy. For example, a spring will have more potential energy when it is compressed or stretched.
Hence, change in position of an object not necessarily means always gain in potential energy.
There are two types of potential energy that is, gravitational potential energy and elastic potential energy.
Thus, we can conclude that the statement gaining potential energy is always associated with a force field, is true about potential energy.

An electrical heating coil is immersed in 4.6kg of water 22°C.The coil, which has a resistance of 250Ω, warms the water to 32°C in 15min. What is the potential difference at which the coil operates?
Answer:
242.4 V
Explanation:
Applying,
Q = cm(t₂-t₁)................ Equation 1
Where Q = amount of heat, c = specific heat capacity, m = mass, t₁ = initial temperature, t₂ = final temperature.
But this heat is produced by electrical power
Therefore,
P = Q/t
Where P = Electrical power, t = time
Also,
P = V²/R
Where V = voltage, R = resistance
Therefore
V²/R = Q/t......................... Equation 2
Substitute equation 1 into equation 2
V²/R = cm(t₂-t₁)/t................. Equation 3
Given: R = 250 ohms, m = 4.6 kg, t₁ = 22°C, t₂ = 32°C, t = 15 min. = (15×60) = 900 seconds
Constant: c = 4600 J/kg.°C
Substitute these values into equation 2
V²/250 = 4600(4.6)(32-22)/900
V²/250 = 235.11
V² = 250×235.11
V² = 58777.78
V = √58777.78
V = 242.4 V

Un hombre parado en el techo de un edificio, tira una bola verticalmente hacia arriba con una velocidad de 12m/s, la bola llega al suelo en 4s. ¿que altura tiene el edificio ?
Respuesta:
24m
Explicación:
Según la ecuación de movimiento
v = u + en
Dado
Velocidad final v = 12 m / s
velocidad inicial u = 0 m / s
tiempo t = 4s
Sustituir
12 = 0 + 4a
a = 12/4
a = 3 m / s²
Lo siguiente es obtener la distancia;
S = ut + 1 / 2at²
S = 0 (4) + 1/2 (3) (4) ²
S = 3 * 16/2
S = 48/2
S = 24 m
Por lo tanto, la distancia requerida es de 24 m.
