29. Back to Jeopardy Back to JeopardyResistance

30. Answer What is the voltage of an ipod, that has a resistance of 5 Ω when the current running through it is 2A?

31. Back to Jeopardy Back to JeopardyGiven: I = 2AR = 5Ω Unknown: V=? V = I x R V= 2A x 5Ω V = 10 V Therefore the voltage would be 10 V.

32. Answer What is the resistance of a PS3, if a current of 10A runs through it, when it is connected to a wall outlet (120V)?

33. Back to Jeopardy Back to JeopardyGiven: V= 120VI = 10A Unknown: R= ? R = V/I R = 120V 10A R = 12 Ω Therefore the resistance would be 12 Ω.

34. Answer What is the equation for electrical energy?

35. Back to Jeopardy Back to Jeopardy E = V x I x ∆ t

36. Answer How much electrical energy is produced by a flashlight powered by a 9V battery with a current of 2A, that stays lit for 1 hour?

37. Back to Jeopardy Back to JeopardyGiven: V= 18 VI = 2At = 1h Unknown: E = ? E = V x I x t E = 9 V x 2A x 1h E = 18 W h Therefore the energy produced is 18 W h.

38. Answer A stereo was accidentally left on half a day (12 hrs). If the stereo used 5000Wh of energy, what is the power rating of the stereo?

39. Back to Jeopardy Back to JeopardyGiven: E=5000W ht=12h Unknown: P=? P=E/t P = 5000 W h 12h P = 416.7W Therefore the power rating for the stereo is 416.7 W.

40. Answer If an X-box uses 5kWh of electrical energy and the rate is $0.08/kWh. What is the cost to use the X-box?

41. Back to Jeopardy Back to JeopardyGiven: E= 5kWhRate = $0.08/kWh Unknown: Cost=? Cost=E x rate Cost = 5 kWh x $0.08/kWh Cost = $0.40 Therefore the cost to use the X-box is $0.40.

42. Answer What is the percent efficiency of a toaster if the useful energy output is 10000J and the total energy input is 20000J?

43. Back to Jeopardy Back to JeopardyGiven: Useful energy output = 10000 J Total energy input = 20000 J Unknown: Percent Efficiency =? % efficiency = Useful energy output x 100% Total energy input Total energy input % efficiency = 10000 Jx 100 % % efficiency = 10000 Jx 100 % 20000 J 20000 J % efficiency = 50 % Therefore the % efficiency of the toaster is 50 %.
