The
end-use efficiency of burning coal to power a light bulb is barely
1%. What does this mean, and what factors are likely to be
contributing to this low number?
Consider a light bulb connected to a battery with wires. How
must the light bulb be connected in order for it to light?
Identify the relevant parts of the bulb and battery. Explain,
using the concept of potential difference, why and how your
configuration causes the bulb to light. Do not use the phrase
"complete circuit".
A light bulb, a capacitor, and a nine-volt battery are wired
up in series in a simple RC circuit. The light bulb has a
resistance of 2.0 kΩ and the capacitor has a capacitance of 950
μF.(a) What is the electric current in the circuit at the exact
moment the battery is connected (at t = 0)?(b) What is the electric current in the circuit 1 second after
the battery was connected?(c) What is the electric current in the circuit...
A light bulb manufacturer guarantees that the mean life of a
certain type of light bulb is at least 720 hours. A random sample
of 51 light bulbs as a mean of 701.6 hours with a population
standard deviation of 62 hours. At an α=0.05, can you support the
company’s claim using the test statistic? claim is the alternative,
reject the null and support claim as test statistic (-2.12) is not
in the rejection region defined by the critical value...
A light bulb manufacturer guarantees that the mean life of a
certain type of light bulb is at least 757 hours. A random sample
of 22 light bulbs has a mean life of 729 hours. Assume the
population is normally distributed and the population standard
deviation is 65 hours. At a=0.02, do you have enough evidence to
reject the manufacturer's claim.
1. identify null and alternative hypothesis
2.identify region rejections on graph
3.identify standarized test statstics
4. interpret decision
A light bulb is 3.00m3.00m from a wall. You are to use a concave
mirror to project an image of the bulb on the wall, with the image
2.252.25 times the size of the object.
1. How far should the mirror be from the wall?
2. What should its radius of curvature be?
8.8. A manufacturing company of light bulb claims that an
average light bulb lasts 500 days. A contractor randomly selects 30
bulbs for testing. The sampled bulbs last an average of 490 days,
with a standard deviation of 100 days. If the claim were true, what
is the probability that 30 randomly selected bulbs would have an
average life of no more than 490 days? [10]
Please include diagrams:
a) A 100-W light bulb and a 40-W light bulb are both rated at
household voltage. i) Which light bulb will be brighter if the two
bulbs are connected in parallel and this combination connected to a
household voltage source? ii) Which light bulb will be brighter if
they are connected in series and this combination connected to a
household voltage? b) A battery charges a parallel plate capacitor.
After it is fully charged, it is then...
a) if a 75w light bulb is left on for 2.0 hrs how much work is
done?
b)a winch thats powered by a 156W motor lifts crate 9.8m in 11
seconds. what is the mass of the create?
