What a load adds to an electrical circuit

What is resistance?


400

When too many load devices are plugged into a circuit that their is no longer enough current to run the devices.

What is Overloaded?

400

The total resistance in a series circuit with R1=3, R2=7, R3=5

What is Rt=15

400

The three voltage measurements used when measuring in AC

What is Vpk ,Vpk-pk, VRMS?


400

The biggest DBA in baby class.

What is Airman Basic Bond?

800

Difference of electrical potential between two points

What is Voltage?

800

The main advantages and disadvantages of circuit breakers over fuses.

What is the ability to reset the circuit breaker after it has been tripped allowing it to be reused?

800

Its disadvantages are because the usable voltage is spread out among the compounds, adding more components causes the voltage to drop. Also because we have more resistance to the circuit the total current will drop

What is Series Circuit?

800

The unit of measurement for frequency and its equal to one cycle per second.

What is Hertz(Hz)?

800

Where current flows in one direction only from negative to positive and the power source has a definite polarity.

What is DC circuit?

1200

The unit of measurement for Resistance

What is an Ohm?


1200

Rated by the amount and time it takes to blow them.

What is a fuse?

1200

Ohm's law in terms of Voltage

What  is E=I x R

1200

When two wave shapes go through minimum points at differnt times.

What is out of phase?

1200

The AFI that provides instruction on the airforce lockout tagout program.

What is AFI 91-203?

1600

Symbol for Current

What is I?


1600

The two parts that determine the name of a switch.

What are Poles and Throw?

1600

The sum of all currents flowing to a point must be equal to the sum of all currents flowing away from that point.

What is Kirchhoff's Current Law

1600

The part of the cycle that drops from zero to maximum negative value and then returns to zero.

what is the Negative Half Cycle.
1600

The organization that the AFI 91-203 adopted health and safety signs such as 

-Saftey Color code for physical hazard

-Sources of standards

-Control of hazardous energy

What is OSHA(occupational Saftey and health Administration?

2000

Symbol for Power

What is P?

2000

A current that has only one polarity and can be either positive or negative.

What is Direct Current?

2000

The algebraic sum of the applied voltage and the voltage drops around any closed current path is zero. In any closed circuit or loop the applied voltage is equal to the sum of the voltage drops around the circuit.

What is Kirchhoff's Voltage Law?

2000

Measures the actual distance between the beginning and ends of ine sine wave cycle.

What is wave length?

2000

The first thing to do when you come across a victim of electric shock.

What is CALL FOR HELP?
