Get started for freeA heart defibrillator is used to enable the heart to start beating if it has stopped. This is done by passing a large current ofthrough the body atfor a very short time, usuallyabout . (a) What power does the defibrillator deliver to the body, and (b) how much energy is transferred ?
An open plastic soda bottle with an opening diameter of is placed on a table. A uniform magnetic field directed upward and oriented from the vertical encompasses the bottle. What is the total magnetic flux through the plastic of the soda bottle?
High-voltage power supplies are sometimes designed intentionally to have rather large internal resistance as a safety precaution. Why is such a power supply with a large internal resistance safer than a supply with the same voltage but lower internal resistance?
A cylindrical rod of diameter is connected to
a power supply that maintains a constant potential difference of across
its ends, while an ammeter measures the current through it. You observe that
at room temperature the ammeter reads while at it
reads . You can ignore any thermal expansion of the rod. Find (a) the
resistivity at and (b) the temperature coefficient of resistivity at for the material of the rod.
A light bulb glows because it has resistance. The brightness of a light bulb increases with the electrical power dissipated in the bulb. (a) In the circuit shown in Fig. Q25.14a, the two bulbs A and B are identical. Compared to bulb A, does bulb B glow more brightly, just as brightly, or less brightly? Explain your reasoning. (b) Bulb B is removed from the circuit and the circuit is completed as shown in Fig. Q25.14b. Compared to the brightness of bulb A in Fig. Q25.14a, does bulb A now glow more brightly, just as brightly, or less brightly? Explain your reasoning
