Ralph has three resistors, R1, R2, and R3, connected in series. When connected to an ideal emf source E1, current I1 flows through the resistors. a. If the resistors are instead connected to a second source with E2=2E1, what is the new current through the resistors in terms of the first current? b.

Resistors are commonly rated at 18W,14W,12W ,1 W and 2 W for use in electrical circuits. If a current of1 = 2.00 A is accidentally passed through a R=1.00 resistor rated at 1 W, what would be the most probable outcome? Is there anything that can be done to prevent such an accident?
The student engineer of a campus radio station wishes to verify the effectiveness of the lightning rod on the antenna mast (Fig. P21.71). The unknown resistance Rx is between points C and E. Point E is a true ground, but it is inaccessible for direct measurement because this stratum is several meters below the Earths surface. Two identical rods are driven into the ground at A and B, introducing an unknown resistance Ry. The procedure is as follows. Measure resistance R1 between points A and B, then connect A and B with a heavy conducting wire and measure resistance R2 between points A and C. (a) Derive an equation for Rx in terms of the observable resistances, R1 and R2. (b) A satisfactory ground resistance would be Rx 2.00 . Is the grounding of the station adequate if measurements give R1 = 13.0 and R2 = 6.00 ? Explain. Figure P21.71
Power P0 = I0 V0 is delivered to a resistor of resistance R0. If the resistance is doubled (Rnew = 2R0) while the voltage is adjusted such that the current is constant, what are the ratios (a) Pnew/P0 and (b) Vnew/V0? If, instead, the resistance is held constant while Pnew = 2P0, what are the ratios (c) Vnew/V0, and (d) Inew/I0?
The power dissipated in a resistor is given by P = V2/R, which means power decreases if resistance increases. Yet this power is also given by P = I2R, which means power increases if resistance increases. Explain why there is no contradiction here.
