Get started for freeA fuse is a device designed to break a circuit, usually by melting when the current exceeds a certain value. What characteristics should the material of the fuse have?
Suppose a resistor R lies alongeach edge of a cube (12 resistors in all)with connections at the corners. Find theequivalent resistance between two diagonally opposite corners of the cube (pointsa and b in Fig. P26.84).
You want to produce three 1.00-mm-diameter cylindrical wires,
each with a resistance of 1.00 Ω at room temperature. One wire is gold, one
is copper, and one is aluminum. Refer to Table 25.1 for the resistivity
values. (a) What will be the length of each wire? (b) Gold has a density of.
What will be the mass of the gold wire? If you consider the current price of gold, is
this wire very expensive?
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?
In an L-R-C series circuit, what criteria could be used to decide whether the system is over damped or underdamped? For example, could we compare the maximum energy stored during one cycle to the energy dissipated during one cycle? Explain.
