6) It is known that when a heavy appliance comes on, lights that are connected to the same circuit will dim. Consider the case of a motor in a refrigerator that is in parallel to a bulb. a) Given the voltage source is 120 V, the wire resistance is 0.4002, and the bulb is nominally 75.0 W, what power will the bulb dissipate if a total of 30.0 A passes througl the wires when the motor comes on? Assume negligible change in bulb resistance. c) What is the power consumed by the motor?

It is known that when a heavy appliance comes on, lights that are connected to the same circuit
will dim. Consider the case of a motor in a refrigerator that is in parallel to a bulb.
a)
Given the voltage source is 120 V, the wire resistance is 0.400 2, and the bulb is
nominally 75.0 W, what power will the bulb dissipate if a total of 30.0 A passes through
the wires when the motor comes on? Assume negligible change in bulb resistance.
c)
What is the power consumed by the motor?
