A Three-Way Light Bulb and Parallel Wiring Within the bulb there are two separate filaments. When one burns out, the bulb can produce only one level of illumination, but not the highest. Are the filaments connected in series or parallel? How can two filaments be used to produce three different illumination levels?

Question 2 (6 pts): You are comparing two types of light bulbs - the LED bulb and incandescent bulb (assume they have the same light intensity). If you turn on the light bulb for 4 hours/day and the electricity price is $0.1/kWh. Which light bulb is a better choice for 10 years? The Interest rate is 4% (this is also known as the discount rate). You can assume used bulbs have no resale value. Alternatives LED Bulb Incandescent Bulb Price...

1a) Two light bulbs are hooked up in a series to a 9 V battery. Why is the voltage drop across a single light bulb not 9 V? 1b) Suppose someone hands you three resistors having three different resistances. How would you hook them up in order to make their equivalent resistance as small as possible, and thus the largest current? (Briefly explain why your arrangement produces the smallest equivalent resistance.)

Suppose you have a circuit with a 10 volt battery hooked up to a 100 ohm light bulb and a variable resistor of R ohms. The light bulb and the resistor can be hooked up in series or parallel. Draw both these circuits and label them as series or parallel and with the values of each component. Now, solve for the current in the light bulb in each of these circuits for R = 10, 100, and 1000 Ohms. Given...

PLEASE SHOW ALL WORK AND EXPLAIN To test that the mean lifetime of light bulbs is at least 845 hours (population is normally distributed and population standard deviation is 25), a random sample of 36 bulbs is tested, yielding a sample mean of 850 hours. What conclusion would you reach if alpha = .04? Show all steps of hypothesis testing. You must state your conclusion in terms of the context of the mean lifetime of light bulbs.

I just did a lab and I can't figure out why the voltage behaves this way. Circuit one: A 1.5 volt battery and a voltmeter V= 1.319V Circuit two: Same as circuit one but there is a bulb parallel with the voltmeter and the voltage drops to 1.156V. Shouldn't the voltage be the same because they are in parallel and how can you use theory or otherwise to explain this? Is it due to resistance decreasing because the bulb abd...

Please answer.. Overview: When a wire is attached to the positive terminal of a power source, such as a battery, and to the negative terminal of the battery a potential difference is set across that wire and a current is generated through that wire. Depending on how much resistance there is in the wire will affect the amount of current through that wire. Adding more resistance will further affect the amount of current.  In this experiment you will measure both the...

An old-fashioned incandescent light bulb rated at 60 W might have the same brightness as a compact fluorescent bulb that is rated at only 14 W. How is this possible? (Hint: think about what happens when the bulbs are left on for a very long time and about other ways energy can get used.)

1) A photon of visible light of a given energy is observed being emitted from an atom. This tells you that: A) Two electron energy levels in the atom are different by that energy and an electron just transitioned from the lower to the higher of these levels. B) The highest electron energy state in the atom has that energy. C) Two electron energy levels in the atom are different by that energy and an electron just transitioned from the...
