An idealized voltmeter is connected across the terminals of abattery, and arole="math" localid="1655719696009" appliance is also connected across its terminals. If the voltmeter reads (a) how much power is being dissipated by the appliance, and (b) what is the internal resistance of the battery?
In a cyclotron, the orbital radius of protons with energy is . You are redesigning the cyclotron to be used instead for alpha particles with energy . An alpha particle has charge and mass . If the magnetic filed isn't changed, what will be the orbital radius of the alpha particles?
A resistor with resistance is connected to a battery that has emf 12.0 V and internal resistance . For what two values of will the power dissipated in the resistor be 80.0 W ?
A 5.00-A current runs through a 12-gauge copper wire (diameter
2.05 mm) and through a light bulb. Copper hasfree electrons per
cubic meter. (a) How many electrons pass through the light bulb each
second? (b) What is the current density in the wire? (c) At what speed does
a typical electron pass by any given point in the wire? (d) If you were to use
wire of twice the diameter, which of the above answers would change?
Would they increase or decrease?
A 1500-W electric heater is plugged into the outlet of a 120-V circuit that has a 20-A circuit breaker. You plug an electric hair dryer into the same outlet. The hair dryer has power settings of 600 W, 900 W, 1200 W, and 1500 W. You start with the hair dryer on the 600-W setting and increase the power setting until the circuit breaker trips. What power setting caused the breaker to trip?
