Problems from "The MCAT Physics Book" 4. An electrical resistor is installed in a container of water to heat it. The resistor dissipates heat at a rate of 2.0 W, and the container holds 10 kg of water. How long would it take to raise the temperature of the water 5 C? (Note. The specific heat of water is 4.2 x 10' J/kg 'C, and I W is 1 J/s.) Four 6-V batteries are connected in series in order to power lights A and B. The resistance of light A is 40 and the resistance of light B is 20 Ω. A B A.2.4 x 10 seconds. B.4.2 x 10' seconds. C. 1.05 x 10' seconds. D. 4.2 x 10' seconds. In the circuit shown, use the following: R₁ = 20 2, R₁ = 30 2, R₁ = 40 2, AV= 18 V. 10. How does the current through light bulb A compare with the current through light bulb B? A.
