I_rms defined so I_rms²R = average power, same heating as DC current. For sine wave: I_rms = I₀/√2. Memory tip: 'RMS: heating equivalence; use RMS for power calculations'. AC fundamentals frequently tested in competitive exams.
Explanation:
Fuse is a safety device with a wire that melts when current exceeds rated value, breaking the circuit and preventing damage from overcurrent/short circuits. It operates on Joule heating (I²R). Option A is opposite; C describes capacitor; D describes rectifier. Memory tip: 'Fuse = sacrificial overcurrent protector'. This practical application question tests knowledge of electrical safety devices, frequently examined in competitive exams. Always link fuse rating to circuit requirements: fuse current rating slightly above normal operating current.
Explanation:
By definition, a force is conservative if the work done by it on an object moving between two points is completely independent of the path taken. A direct consequence of this is that the total work done by a conservative force (like gravity or electrostatic force) in moving an object around a closed loop (returning to the starting point) is exactly zero.
Explanation:
Work done (W) is calculated as the dot product of force and displacement: W = F × d × cos(θ). Since the displacement is in the direction of the force, the angle θ is 0°, and cos(0°) = 1. W = 10 N × 2 m × 1 = 20 Joules (J).
