Making connections: take-home experiment—electrical energy use inventory
1) Make a list of the power ratings on a range of appliances in your home or room. Explain why something like a toaster has a higher rating than a digital clock. Estimate the energy consumed by these appliances in an average day (by estimating their time of use). Some appliances might only state the operating current. If the household voltage is 120 V, then use
. 2) Check out the total wattage used in the rest rooms of your school's floor or building. (You might need to assume the long fluorescent lights in use are rated at 32 W.) Suppose that the building was closed all weekend and that these lights were left on from 6 p.m. Friday until 8 a.m. Monday. What would this oversight cost? How about for an entire year of weekends?

The circuit shown contains a resistor
R connected to a voltage supply. The graph shows the total energy
E dissipated by the resistance as a function of time. Which of the following shows the corresponding graph for double resistance, i.e., if
R is replaced by 2
R ?
The power dissipated in a resistor is given by
, which means power decreases if resistance increases. Yet this power is also given by
, which means power increases if resistance increases. Explain why there is no contradiction here.
A charge of 4.00 C of charge passes through a pocket calculator's solar cells in 4.00 h. What is the power output, given the calculator's voltage output is 3.00 V? (See
[link] .)
Find the power dissipated in each of these extension cords: (a) an extension cord having a
resistance and through which 5.00 A is flowing; (b) a cheaper cord utilizing thinner wire and with a resistance of
what's the difference between a firm and an industry
Abdul
firm is the unit which transform inputs to output where as industry contain combination of firms with similar production 😅😅

Suppose the demand function that a firm faces shifted from
Qd 120 3P
to
Qd 90 3P
and the supply function has shifted from
QS
20 2P
to
QS
10 2P .
a) Find the effect of this change on price and quantity.
b) Which of the changes in demand and supply is higher?
Demand curve shows that how supply and others conditions affect on demand of a particular thing and what percent demand increase whith increase of supply of goods

Hi Sir please how do u calculate Cross elastic demand and income elastic demand?
