Question answer
A typical "college pad" is shown below. Each component uses a power of 500 W, and a 20 Amp fuse protects the circuit. (If you don't see the image, click here ) 120 V Computer (500 W) Lights (500 W) Fridge (500 W) Fuse T.V. (500 W) 20 A A) What is the current in each component? A (Round answer to the hundredths place.) B) What total current is being drawn from the circuit? A (Round answer to the tenths place.) Does the fuse break? For YES, type: Y For NO, type: N. C) If a 500 W toaster is connected, what is the total current in the circuit now? A (Round answer to the tenths place.) Does the fuse break? For YES, type:Y For NO, type: N D) What is the resistance of each component? 2 (Round answer to the tenths place.) E) How much does it cost per hour to power the circuit if the electricity costs 0.11 $/kW-hr? (kW- hr is 1000 W for 1 hour) $ (Round answer to the nearest cent.)
