A Vacuum is the absence of air. So no, there is no air in a vacuum.

What is the difference between Air circuit breaker and Vacuum circuiut breaker?

"Air" and "Vacuum" describe how the breaker extinguishes the arcing current. An Air breaker opens far enough that the dielectric strenght of air is enough to extinguish the arc. A vacuum breaker's contacts are in a vacuum. Oil breakers use oil. SF6 breakers use SF6 gas to extinguish the arc.


What is vaccume circuit breaker?

In VCB, The two contacts are present in a vaccum, When there is a fault these contacts are forced to open resulting arch ,as all we know arch does not flow through Vaccum so it extinguishes thus vcb seperates two circuits.


Can a vacuum is conductor or non conductor?

A vacuum is a non conductor.


How can you identify the air circuit breaker and vacuum circuit breaker?

An air circuit breaker (ACB) can be identified by its open-air design and larger physical size, typically featuring a visible arc chamber where the circuit interruption occurs in open air. In contrast, a vacuum circuit breaker (VCB) is generally more compact and sealed, with its main components housed in a vacuum chamber, allowing for efficient interruption without an external medium. ACBs usually have visible contacts and may show wear over time, while VCBs feature a smooth operation and minimal maintenance due to their protective environment.


When does a vacuum draw the most amperage Free flow or When the tube is plugged?

In the case of a vacuum, the highest load, and thus the highest current, is when the nozzle is free flowing. Lowest current draw is when the nozzle is plugged. If you plug the nozzle with your hand, you will actually hear the motor speed up. This is because it is doing less work (that is, moving air). The vacuum is free spinning (not moving air) when the nozzle is plugged. Check the links section, for a link to a data sheet for an Ametek-Lamb vacuum motor. Notice in the performance curves where the current is maximum (17.4A) when the orifice is 2.0 inches (free flow), and the current is minimum (12.6A) when the orifice is 0.0 inches (nozzle plugged). Also notice how the RPM increases dramatically as the orifice (intake) is plugged. This is opposite of what common sense tells you it should be, but that's the way it is!

Can a vacuum cleaner work in a vacuum?

a vacuum cleaner uses air to create suction. in a vacuum there is no air. Therefore, the aswer is NO.


Are there many of air molecules inside a vacuum?

No, a vacuum by definition is a space with no air molecules present. Therefore, there are no air molecules inside a vacuum.


What is the empty space where no air exist?

The term for the empty space where no air exists is vacuum. A vacuum is a space devoid of matter, including air. Vacuum is commonly used in scientific research and technology applications, such as in vacuum chambers or vacuum pumps.


If space is a vacuum, where does the air go?

When space is a vacuum, the air is dispersed into the surrounding environment or into other areas with air.

Why does a vacuum blow instead of suck air?

A vacuum cleaner creates suction by lowering the air pressure inside the vacuum, causing higher pressure air from the surrounding area to rush in and fill the space. This rushing air creates the sensation of air being "sucked" into the vacuum cleaner.
