A 12-V battery causes a current of 0.80A through a resistor. A) What is its resistance? B) How many joules of energy does the battery lose in a minute? You buy a 75-W lightbulb in Europe, where electricity is delivered to homes at 240 V. If you use the lightbulb in the United States at 120 V (assume its resistance does not change), how bright will it be relative to 75-W 120-V bulbs? [Hint: Assume roughly that brightness is proportional to...
You buy a 90 W lightbulb in Europe, where electricity is delivered to homes at 220 V. If you use the lightbulb at home in the United States, it will NOT be the same brightness as a US 90 W, 115 V bulb. Calculate how much power it will consume in the US
You buy an ornate 25 W lightbulb in Ethiopia, where electricity is delivered to homes at 220 V. If you use the lightbulb here in Canada, how much power will it consume, assuming that the voltage is 116 V?
You have a hair dryer with two settings, 850 W and 1250 W in Europe, where electricity is delivered to homes at 240 V. a. Find the resistance at both settings. b. What will be the new power settings in the US, where electricity is delivered to homes at 120 V. c. To keep the power rating of the device the same in the US, what should the new resistance be?
You plan to take your hair blower to Europe, where the electrical outlets put out 240 Vinstead of the 120 V seen in the United States. The blower puts out 1600 W at 120 V . What could you do to operate your blower via the 240 V line in Europe? What current will be drawn from the 240 V line when the dryer is connected to the 120 V side of the transformer? What resistance connected directly to the...
SYNOPSIS The product manager for coffee development at Kraft Canada must decide whether to introduce the company's new line of single-serve coffee pods or to await results from the product's launch in the United States. Key strategic decisions include choosing the target market to focus on and determining the value proposition to emphasize. Important questions are also raised in regard to how the new product should be branded, the flavors to offer, whether Kraft should use traditional distribution channels or...
