GO The current through the battery and resistors 1 and 2 in Fig. 26-34a is 2.00 A. Energy is transferred from the current to thermal energy Eth in both resistors. Curves 1 and 2 in Fig. 26-34b give that thermal energy Eth for resistors 1 and 2, respectively, as a function of time t. The vertical scale is set by Eth, s = 40.0 mJ, and the horizontal scale is set by ts = 5.00 s. What is the power of the battery?

- Problem 25.68 18 of I Peview Con Compact fluorescent bulbs are much more efficient at producing light than are ordinary incandescent bulbs. They initially cost much more, but last far longer and use much less electricity. According to one study of these bulbs, a compact bulb that produces as much light as a 100 W incandescent bulb uses only 23.0 W of power. The compact bulb lasts 10000 hours, on the average, and costs $12.00, whereas the incandescent bulb costs only $0.74, but lasts just 750 hours. The study assumed that electricity cost $0.090 per kilowatt-hour and that the bulbs were on for 4.0h per day Part A What is the total cost (including the price of the bulbs) to run incandescent bulbs for 3.0 years?
