Get started for freeThe circuit shown in FIGURE P28.48 is inside a diameter balloon filled with helium that is kept at a constant pressure of . How long will it take the balloon’s diameter to increase to 16 cm?
How much current flows through the bottom wire in , and in which direction ?
It seems hard to justify spending for a compact fluorescent lightbulb when an ordinary incandescent bulb costs . To see if this makes sense, compare a incandescent bulb lasting hours to a compact fluorescent bulb having a lifetime of hours. Both bulbs produce the same amount of visible light and are interchangeable. If electricity costs , what is the total cost—purchase plus energy— to obtain hours of light from each type of bulb? This is called the life-cycle cost.
A long, diameter wire has a variable resistivity given by
localid="1649324855366"
where x is measured from one end of the wire. What is the current if this wire is connected to the terminals of a battery?
