The corroded contacts in a lightbulb socket have 8.3 Ω total resistance.
Part A
How much actual power is dissipated by a 110 W (120 V) lightbulb screwed into this socket?
Express your answer using two significant figures.
given,
resistance = 8.3 ohm
power = 110 W
voltage = 120 V
power = voltage^2 / resistance
110 = 120^2 / resistance
resistance of the bulb = 130.91 ohm
total resistance = resistance of the bulb + resistance of the socket
total resistance = 130.91 + 8.3
total resistance = 139.21 ohm
power = 120^2 / 139.21
actual power is dissipated = 103.441 watt
