Also calculate the total power ofthe circuit (0 canes) END of TEST ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONICS TECHNOLOGY SOLUTIONS. Form four mark scheme December 2012-12-04 y a) Accident ~an accident is an undesired event that results in physical harm to a person or damage to property b) Safety - the ability to effect any operation without causing injury to oneself and damage and damage to property. It is a medium for achieving some degree of loss prevention. c) Hazard — the potential of any item, substance or solution, either by itself or with a vari that can cause injury or damage to property. d) Egress — The act of coming or going out; emergence. 2. The right to leave or go out:. 3. A path or opening for going out; an exit ) Resistance — the friction or opposition, which a material presents to a flow of current. f) Power — the amount of work done based on a time period such as seconds or minutes. Power is the ie rate of doing work. (2 marks each) 2) Structure of an atom. (5 marks) 3) Conventional current — current flows from positive to negative. Conventional flow notation {a= | Electic charge moves from the positive (surplus) | side of the battery to the negative (deficiency) side. Electron flow — electrons flow from negative to positive. Ls [Elector Flow 4 Saree eee (10 marks) 4) Ohm’s law states that the current(!) flowing through a circuit is directly proportional to the Voltage(V) and inversely proportional to the resistance(R) at a constant temperature. Three formulas associated with ohm’s la (5 marks) V=IxR 5) The procedure for using a fire extinguisher is as follows (5 marks) 1. Pullout the pin, 2. Aim to the base of the fire. 3. Squeeze the trigger 4. Sweep from side to side. 6) Kirchhoff first law states that the algebraic sum of all currents entering at any point will Equal the sum of all currents leaving that point. (5 marks) Kirchhoff’s second law states that the total voltage applied to a series circuit is equal to the total number of individual voltage drops in a series circuit. (5 marks)
