Chapter 34, Problem 45A
Does more current flow out of a battery than into it? Does more current flow into a lightbulb than out of it? Explain.
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
To Explain: Whether more current flow out of a battery than into it.
Whether more current flows into a light bulb than out of it.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Current flows when voltage is established across a conductor. Voltage is provided by a battery.
In a circuit, the ends of the wire are connected to positive and negative terminals of battery. The amount of current remains conserved in a circuit which implies that the total current which leaves the positive terminal is equivalent to the total current entering the negative terminal.
It is same for lightbulb as well.
Conclusion:
Same current flows out and into a battery and lightbulb.

- 13.87 ... Interplanetary Navigation. The most efficient way to send a spacecraft from the earth to another planet is by using a Hohmann transfer orbit (Fig. P13.87). If the orbits of the departure and destination planets are circular, the Hohmann transfer orbit is an elliptical orbit whose perihelion and aphelion are tangent to the orbits of the two planets. The rockets are fired briefly at the depar- ture planet to put the spacecraft into the transfer orbit; the spacecraft then coasts until it reaches the destination planet. The rockets are then fired again to put the spacecraft into the same orbit about the sun as the destination planet. (a) For a flight from earth to Mars, in what direction must the rockets be fired at the earth and at Mars: in the direction of motion, or opposite the direction of motion? What about for a flight from Mars to the earth? (b) How long does a one- way trip from the the earth to Mars take, between the firings of the rockets?
