Integrated Concepts How much time is needed for a surgical cauterizer to raise the temperature of 1.00 g of tissue from 37.0°C to 100°C and then boil away 0.500 g of water, if it puts out 2.00 mA at 15.0 kV? Ignore heat transfer to the surroundings.
Integrated Concepts A short circuit in a 120-V appliance cord has a 0.500- resistance.

Integrated Concepts A short circuit to the grounded metal case of an appliance occurs as shown in Figure 23.60. The person touching the case is wet and only has a 3.00 k(resistance to earth/ground. (a) What is the voltage on the case if 5.00 mA flows through the person? (b) What is the current in the short circuit if the resistance of the earth/ground wire is 0.200 ? (c) Will this trigger the 20.0 A circuit breaker supplying the appliance? Figure 23.60 A person can be shocked even when the case of an appliance is grounded. The large short circuit current produces a voltage on the case of the appliance, since the resistance of the earth/ground wire is not zero.

You are still fascinated by the process of inkjet printing, as described in the opening storyline for this chapter. You convince your father to take you to his manufacturing facility to see the machines that print expiration dates on eggs. You strike up a conversation with the technician operating the machine. He tells you that the ink drops are created using a piezoelectric crystal, acoustic waves, and the PlateauRayleigh instability, which creates uniform drops of mass m = 1.25 108 g. While you dont understand the fancy words, you do recognize mass! The technician also tells you that the drops are charged to a controllable value of q and then projected vertically downward between parallel deflecting plates at a constant terminal speed of 18.5 m/s. The plates are = 2.25 cm long and have a uniform electric field of magnitude E = 6.35 104 N/C between them. Noting your interest in the process, the technician asks you, If the position on the egg at which the drop is to be deposited requires that its deflection at the bottom end of the plates be 0.17 mm, what is the required charge on the drop? You quickly get to work to find the answer.

Review. A novel method of storing energy has been proposed. A huge underground superconducting coil, 1.00 kin in diameter, would be fabricated. It would carry a maximum current of 50.0 kA through each winding of a 150-turn Nb3Sn solenoid. (a) If the inductance of this huge coil were 50.0 H. what would be the total energy stored? (b) What would be the compressive force per unit length acting between two adjacent windings 0.250 in apart?
You are in charge of planning a physics magic show for an open house on your campus. You come up with the following plan for one trick. You will place a sphere on a rough inclined plane of angle , as shown in Figure P28.31, and it will not roll down the incline. Here is the secret that only you know: The sphere is nonconducting, has a mass of 80.0 g, and a radius 20.0 cm. A flat, compact coil of wire with five turns is wrapped tightly around it, with each turn concentric with the sphere. The sphere is placed on the incline so that the coil is parallel to the plane. You establish a uniform magnetic field of 0.350 T vertically upward in the region of the sphere. (a) What current in the coil do you need to make this trick work? (b) You explain the trick to a friend in confidence and he suggests lowering the angle of the plane to make the required current lower. How do you respond? Figure P28.31
