What is the additive inverse of 9.1?
We are talking group theory here. A group with addition has an additive inverse. A group with multiplication has a multiplicative inverse. The additive inverse of a number x is a y with x + y = 0. The additive inverse of x is written -x. Hence, the additive inverse of 9.1 equals -9.1. The reason that this question can arise is that beyond groups, there are rings and fields. Rings and fields have, besides addition, also multiplication. An element can have an additive inverse and a multiplicative inverse at the same time.
Is distance traveled versus time at a constant speed a direct or inverse porportion?
Think about it. If you travel for more time, would you advance a greater distance (that would be a direct proportion), or less distance (that would be an inverse proportion)?
Does a constant of proportionality exist?
Yes, it does. Every time there are variables in direct or inverse relationship, there is a constant of proportionality.
Why when multiplying two negative numbers do you get a positive number?
The answer has to do with the fundamental properties of operations on numbers (the notions of "addition", "subtraction", "multiplication", and "division"). Each number has an "additive inverse" associated to it (a sort of "opposite" number), which when added to the original number gives zero. This is in fact the reason why the negative numbers were introduced: so that each positive number would have an additive inverse. For example, the inverse of 3 is -3, and the inverse of -3 is 3. Note that when you take the inverse of an inverse you get the same number back again: "-(-3)" means "the inverse of -3", which is 3 (because 3 is the number which, when added to -3, gives zero). To put it another way, if you change sign twice, you get back to the original sign. Now, any time you change the sign of one of the factors in a product, you change the sign of the product: (-something) × (something else) is the inverse of (something) × (something else), because when you add them (and use the fact that multiplication needs to distribute over addition), you get zero. For example, (-3) ´ (-4) is the inverse of (3) ´ (-4) because when you add them and use the distributive law, you get . (-3) ´ (-4) + (3) ´ (-4) = (-3 + 3) ´ (-4) = 0 ´ (-4) = 0 So (-3) ´ (-4) is the inverse of (3) ´ (-4) , which is itself (by similar reasoning) the inverse of 3 ´ 7. Therefore, (-3) ´ (-4) is the inverse of the inverse; in other words, the inverse of -12 in other words, 12. The fact that the product of two negatives is a positive is therefore related to the fact that the inverse of the inverse of a positive number is that positive number back again.
What is an inverse proportion?
Two variables are said to be in inverse proportion if their product is a constant.So, if X and Y are in inverse proportion, thenXY = k or Y = k/X for some constant k.If you double X then Y is halved. If you decrease X by a factor of 3 then Y is trebled.A common example is Speed and Time for covering a fixed Distance.
What is high set and low set current setting?
The low-set stage is a current with a definite time or inverse-time operation. The high-set stage has a definite time characteristic only without the inverse-time operation.
What is meant by IDMTL type relay?
Inverse definite minimum time lag relay
What is the Characteristic of slow blow fuse?
It depends on the precise type of slow blow fuse, but in general terms a fuse with a slow blow characteristic will take longer to operate (blow) at high overload currents than one with a normal characteristic. For low overload currents it will operate in about the same time as a normal fuse.
What is the inverse time of the thermal overload?
what is the inverse time of the theraml overload?
What is oscillation time period?
The inverse of frequency.
What is IDMT stand for?
Inverse Definite Minimum Time
What is meant by a defective fuse?
in electronics the term defective fuse can arise if. it does not open at Imax of it's value. it is releasing more flame after open circuit it generate heavy spikes. if it opens after very long time.
Is hope a feling or a characteristic?
It is a feeling, and if you have that feeling all the time, it is a characteristic.

How does time inverse over current relay work?
Over Current (Inverse Time) Over current relay function monitors the general balanced overloading and has current/time settings. This is determined by the overall protective discrimination scheme. There advantage over definite time relays is that they can have much shorter tripping times can be obtained without any risk to the protection selection process. These are classified in accordance with there characteristic curves, this indicates the speed of the operation. Based on this they are defined as being inverse, very inverse or extremely inverse. The typical settings for these relays are 0.7-2In (normal or rated generator current) in 1-10 second. Inducing a calibrated test current through the normal load current tests this relay.
What is an Inverse Time Device?
an inverse time protective device is a protective relay with definite minimum operating current and definite minimum operating time for a given current. the device will ensure that increasing current in a fault, that the operating time will be decreased. Preventing an overload.
What is idmt relay?
Inverse Definite Minimum Time Lag = IDMT relay It's a electromagnetic type rotating disk relay. Tripping time of relay decreases with increasing fault current. see http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/robert.booth/uni/docs/Power%20Supply%20Assignment%203.pdf
