1.Three incandescent lamps, 60 W, 100 W, and 200 W are connected in parallel to a 120 V source. What is the resistance of each of the lamps and the current supplied by the 120 V source?

2. A 1500 W toaster oven and a 600 W coffee maker are connected in parallel to a 120 V source that is protected by a 20 A circuit breaker. We want to connect a blender to the same 120 V source to make smoothies. What is the maximum power rating of the blender that can be connected without tripping the circuit breaker?
