(a) Draw the electric field lines in the region between the plates. [Remember, E-field points in the direction of lower potential. Also, the E-field lines are perpendicular to the equipotential lines.] (b) Which of these plates, left or right, is the positive plate? (c) What are the electric potentials at points A, B, and C?

Three identical 60.0-W, 120-V lightbulbs are connected across a 120-V power source as shown in Figure P28.72. Assuming the resistance of each lightbulb is constant (even though in reality the resistance might increase markedly with current), find (a) the total power supplied by the power source and (b) the potential difference across each lightbulb.

Integrated Concepts Use the ECG in Figure 20.34 to determine the heart rate in beats per minute assuming a constant time between beats. Figure 20.34 A lead II ECG with corresponding arterial blood pressure. The QRS complex is created by the depolarization and contraction of the ventricles and is followed shortly by the maximum or systolic blood pressure. See text for further description.
A physics student uses a 115.00-V immersion heater to heat 400.00 grams (almost two cups) of water for herbal tea. During the two minutes it takes the water to heat, the physics student becomes bored and decides to figure our the resistance of the heater. The student starts with the assumption that the water is initially at the temperature of the room Ti=25.00C and reaches Tf=100.00C . The specific heat of the water is c=4180JkgK What is the resistance of the heater?
Integrated Concepts (a) An immersion heater utilizing 120 V can raise the temperature of a 1.00 102 -g aluminum cup containing 350 g of water from 20.0°C to 95.0°C in 2.00 min. Find its resistance, assuming it is constant during the process. (b) A lower resistance would shorten the heating time. Discuss the practical limits to speeding the heating by lowering the resistance.
