Lucía, a young woman from Veracruz, uses a hair straightener every morning to straighten it and leave it well combed. His father traveled to France and brought him a new iron. The appliance's label indicates that it has a power of 1670 W and requires a potential difference of 220 V to work properly. We know that in the Mexican Republic the nominal voltage is 129 V.
What would be the intensity of electrical current in the hair straightener if it were connected in Europe?

Current describes the rate of electricity (how fast charges are moving). Its formula is I=q/t. The higher the current, the more charges are flowing per unit time. When charging smartphones using a standard USB port, only between 0.5 to 1.5 amps of current can be delivered. Dedicated chargers or superchargers can deliver higher currents, around 2.0 amps or more.
Using a supercharger that can deliver 2.0 amps, how much charge is delivered in 1 hour to a smartphone? Select: (7200C, 1800C, 3600C, or 120C)
How many electrons is this? Select: (about 4.5E22 electrons, about 1.1E22 electrons, about 2.2E22 electrons, or about 9.9E22 electrons)
If the supercharger has a voltage of 5V, what is the equivalent resistance of the smartphone? Select: (5 ohm, 10 ohm, 2.5 ohm, or 0.25 ohm)
How much power (in Joules) was dissipated by the supercharger? Select: (5 Watts, 10 Watts, 20 Watts, or 25 Watts)
What is this power in horsepower? Select: (0.0134 hp, 0.0537 hp, 0.0268 hp, or 0.0067 hp)

- An electron is travelling at 100.0 km/s parallel to a long straight horizontal conductor a distance of 3.00 cm from the conductor. A current of 12.0 A runs through the wire as the electron travels parallel to it, in the same direction as the electron’s velocity. Find the strength of the external electric field that will prevent the electron from deviating from its original path. Express your answer in V/marrow_forwardThe electrical signals to the heart are typically coordinated to create a wave of compression that travels across the heart and pumps the blood through the heart chambers. If these signals get misaligned, the bits of the heart muscle vibrate independently and as a result do not move blood. This situation is called fibrillation and can quickly lead to death. If the situation is caught in time, passing a jolt of current through the heart can realign the electrical signals in the heart and start it beating again. The device that delivers this current is a defibrillator. The central component of a defibrillator is a big capacitor. A battery takes perhaps half a minute to charge this capacitor. A typical defibrillator capacitor might have a capacitance of 54 μF and is charged by a battery to a potential difference of 4200 V.1.

- Review. The use of superconductors has been proposed for power transmission lines. A single coaxial cable (Fig. P23.73) could carry a power of 1.00 103 MW (the output of a large power plant) at 200 kV, DC, over a distance of 1.00 103 km without loss. An inner wire of radius a = 2.00 cm, made from the superconductor Nb3Sn, carries the current I in one direction. A surrounding superconducting cylinder of radius b = 5.00 cm would carry the return current I.

- The figure above stands under a tree during a lightning storm. If lightning comes down the side of the tree, a portion can jump over to the person, especially if the current on the tree reaches a dry region on the bark and thereafter must travel through air to reach the ground. In the figure, part of the lightning jumps through distance d in air and then travels through the person (who has negligible resistance relative to that of air). The rest of the current travels through air alongside the tree, for a distance h. If d/h = 0.400 and the total current is I = 5000 A, what is the current through the person?arrow_forwardChapter 26, Problem 048 Flying Circus of Physics Exploding shoes. The rain-soaked shoes of a person may explode if ground current from nearby lightning vaporizes the water. The sudden conversion of water to water vapor causes a dramatic expansion that can rip apart shoes. Water has density 1000 kg/m3 and requires 2256 kJ/kg to be vaporized.
