b) Frequency is the number of cycles that a sine wave completes in one second.

c) Peak value (Vp or Ip , Vm or Im ) of a sine wave is the value of voltage (or current) at the positive or
the negative maximum (peaks) with respect to zero.
d)
Peak-to-peak value (Vpp or Ipp) - voltage (or current) from the positive peak to the
negative peak. It is always twice the peak value as expressed in the following equations
Vpp = 2Vp
Ipp = 2Ip

Safety Engineering

Electrical safety involves using safe practices when working with or near electricity or electrical
devices.
This is important because electricity is dangerous.
It can be destructive and lethal.
It can cause shocks, burns or fire.
Even 9-volt batteries can cause mild shocks if not handled properly
Myth:Electricity takes the path of least resistance. This myth implies that current only takes low
resistance paths.
Actually, current will take any path high or low resistance in order to return to the source that
provides power.

Explosions
Fires
Fire Extinguisher Classification
Class A extinguishers are for ordinary combustible materials such as paper, wood, cardboard, and most
plastics.
Class B fires involve flammable or combustible liquids such as gasoline, kerosene, grease and oil.

Class C fires involve electrical equipment, such as appliances, wiring, circuit breakers and outlets. Never
use water to extinguish class C fires - the risk of electrical shock is far too great!
Class D fire extinguishers are commonly found in a chemical laboratory.
Class K fire extinguishers are for fires that involve cooking oils, trans-fats, or fats in cooking appliances
and are typically found in restaurant and cafeteria kitchens.
How to use a fire extinguisher
Pull the Pin at the top of the extinguisher.
Aim at the base of the fire, not the flames.
Squeeze the lever slowly. This will release the extinguishing agent in the extinguisher.
Sweep from side to side. Using a sweeping motion, move the fire extinguisher back and forth until the
fire is completely out. Operate the extinguisher from a safe distance, several feet away, and then move
towards the fire once it starts to diminish. Be sure to read the instructions on your fire extinguisher.

Since the source is DC, the capacitor is open,

while the inductor is shorted. Therefore, we
only consider t he 4 resistor because the 3
resistor is hanging(op en capacitor).

45. Graphite (wood and asbestos are insulators, while not all coal are conductors. Coals are mostly
made of carbon which is a semiconductor. It can be an insulator and a conductor)
46. Pliers is used for holding and cutting
(cutter and snips are for cutting, while wrench is for tightening bolts)
47. LOTO(Lockout/Tagout) means that when a machine is under maintenance, the machine should
be locked out from the system(de-energized) and there should be a tag hanging from its main
switch that reads that it is under maintenance so that no one will turn the switch on.
48. Use the plug to unplug devices
49. Ask someone to watch you (main reason: in case of accident someone should rescue you)
50. Carry tools up a ladder
