(Indicates a review question, which means it requires only a basic understanding of the material to answer. Questions without this designation typically require integrating or extending the concepts presented thus far.) . Six resistors, all having the same temperatures and compositions, are each attached to a battery with voltage V to form a simple circuit. The resistors have different lengths, l, but the same diameters. Rank the circuits according to the current that flows through the resistor from smallest to greatest. If two (or more) circuits have the same current flowing, give them the same ranking. Explain the rationale you used to establish your rankings. Circuit 1: l = 2 cm; V = 3 V Circuit 2: l = 2 cm; V = 6 V Circuit 3: l = 1 cm; V = 3 V Circuit 4: l = 1 cm; V = 6 V Circuit 5: l = 3cm; V = 2 V Circuit 6: l = 3cm; V = 6 V

A power supply is connected to two bare wires that are inserted into a glass of saltwater. The resistance of the water decreases as the voltage is increased. Sketch a graph of the voltage versus the current in the water showing this type of behavior.
A Van de Graaff generator is one of the original particle accelerators and can be used to accelerate charged particles like protons or electrons. You may have seen it used to make human hair stand on end or produce large sparks. One application of the Van de Graaff generator is to create X-rays by bombarding a hard metal target with the beam. Consider a beam of protons at 1.00 keV and a current of 5.00 mA produced by the generator, (a) What is the speed of the protons? (b) How many protons are produced each second?
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.
A 12-V car battery is used to power a 20.00-W, 12.00-V lamp during the physics club camping trip/star party. The cable to the lamp is 2.00 meters long, 14-gauge copper wire with a charge density of n=9.501028m3 . (a) What is the current draw by the lamp? (b) How long would it take an electron to get from the battery to the lamp?

SPEAR, a storage ring about 72.0 m in diameter at the Stanford Linear Accelerator (closed in 2009), has a 20.0-A circulating beam of electrons that are moving at nearly the speed of light. (See Figure 20.39.) How many electrons are in the beam? Figure 20.39 Electrons circulating in the storage ring called SPEAR constitute a 20.0-A current. Because they travel close to the speed of light, each electron completes many orbits in each second.
Construct Your Own Problem Consider a person working in an environment where electric currents might pass through her body. Construct a problem in which you calculate the resistance of insulation needed to protect the person from harm. Among the things to be considered are the voltage to which the person might be exposed, likely body resistance (dry, wet, ...), and acceptable currents (safe but sensed, safe and unfelt, ...).
