A tungsten filament in an incandescent bulb has the following properties when the bulb has been connected to an ideal 1.5 volt battery for a long time:

• temperature = 2800 K

• resistivity at this temperature = 8.47E-7 Ωm

• length = 0.30 m

• diameter = 0.52 mm

You may assume that any other parts of the bulb and the wires have no resistance.

1. Determine  the resistance of the tungsten filament. 2. Determine  the current through the tungsten filament. 3. Consider the time when the circuit was first connected as t = 0. Describe what happens to the resistance and current as a function of time. Be specific and include calculations when possible.
