13.3 Questions 1. Do electrons travel from the power plant to your home to provide electrical energy? Explain your answer. ZU 5. A laptop computer requires 12 V direct current, and yet it is plugged into a home's wall outlet. What must be involved to satisfy the requirements of the laptop? K 2. In alternating current electricity, is the voltage proportional to the current? Explain. KU 6. Describe the differences between fuses, circuit breakers, 3. (a) Would you notice if the frequency of the alternating GFCIS, and AFCIS. KU current electricity were reduced to 2 Hz? Explain. (b) In the late 1950s, the frequency of alternating current was changed from 25 Hz to 60 Hz. Suggest a reason for this change. U C 7. Most household circuits in North America use 120 V, while in Europe 240 V is most commonly used. Research to find out why this difference exists. Is one system better than the other? e a 4.
