An electric appliance with a current of I and a resistance of R converts energy to other forms at a rate of P when connected to a 120-Volt outlet. What would be the new power rating (in terms of P) if ... a. ... the current is doubled (and the same 120-Volt outlet is used)? b. ... the current is halved (and the same 120-Volt outlet is used)? c. ... the resistance is doubled (and the same 120-Volt outlet is used)? d. ... the resistance is halved (and the same 120-Volt outlet is used)? e. ... the current is tripled (and the same 120-Volt outlet is used)? f. ... the resistance is tripled (and the same 120-Volt outlet is used)? g. ... the same appliance is powered by a 12-Volt supply? h. ... the same appliance is powered by a 240-Volt supply?
