Chapter 33, Problem 34PQ
Suppose you connect a small lightbulb across a DC power supply that has an emf of 5.0 V. You then connect the bulb across a 60.0-Hz AC power supply that has an rms voltage of 5.0 V. Does the bulb dissipate more power on average when it is connected to the DC power supply or the AC power supply? Is the bulb brighter when it is connected to the DC power supply or the AC power supply? Explain.
