Chapter 1, Problem 1RQ

What are the three principal parts of an atom, and what charge does each carry?

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
To determine

The three principal parts of an atom and the charge that each one carries.

Answer to Problem 1RQ

The three principal parts of an atom are the proton, the electron and the neutron.

A proton carries a positive charge.

An electron carries a negative charge.

A neutron does not carry any charge.

Explanation of Solution

Description:

The basic building block of the universe is the Atom.

Any substance that has mass and occupies space is called matter and all matter is made from a combination of atoms.

An atom is made of three principal parts, they are: Proton, Electron and Neutron.

A proton carries a positive charge.

An electron carries a negative charge.

A neutron does not carry any charge.

Conclusion:

The three principal parts of an atom and the charge that each one carries respectively have been explained.

For the single-line diagram in the image, convert the zero-, positive-, and negative-sequence reactance date to per-unit using the given base quantities. Use subtransient machine reactances.Then, USE PowerWorld Simulator, create the generator, transmission line, and transformer input data files.Next, run the Simulator to compute subtransient fault currents for (1) single line-to-ground, (2) line-to-line, and (3) double line-to-ground bolted faults at each bus. Assume 1.0 per unit prefault voltage and neglect prefault load currents and all losses. Note: L2 = 25 kmShow input data files (machine, transmission line and transformers), output data (fault currents, bus volatges and line currents), and screenshots of the Simulation.
