1.A 2000 W toaster operates on a household circuit of 200 V. What is the resistance of the wire the make up the heating element of the toaster?
OpenStudy (ksaimouli):
Resistance = Voltage / Current
OpenStudy (anonymous):
0.1?
OpenStudy (ksaimouli):
Si unit of current is amp but they gave us power
OpenStudy (anonymous):
electric power (watts)=votlage*amperage, amperage=voltage/resistance so 2000W=200V*Amperage (10amp). 10amp=200V/resistance (20)

20 ohms
OpenStudy (ksaimouli):
\[power=\frac{ V }{ I }\]
OpenStudy (ksaimouli):
solve for V
OpenStudy (ksaimouli):
from above equation
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ty :) @ksaimouli and @SalvadorV kk hold on

you have the intensity formula wrong
OpenStudy (anonymous):
me?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sorry the power formula
OpenStudy (anonymous):
P=V*I
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh so I got it wrong?

OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes, Watts=Volts*Amps Amps=Volts/Ohms
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh wait im confused .-. sorry
OpenStudy (anonymous):
watts=volts^2/ohms
2000=200^2/ohms
ohms=200^2/2000 = 40 000/2000=20 ohms
OpenStudy (anonymous):
don't worry, we all make mistakes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I feel stupid :l but what is ohms?

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):
resistance (unit)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ohms is the measure for resistance
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oohh ok! ty for helping me c: do you mind helping with 1 more?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and ksaimouli has his formula wrong .-.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sure

2.An electronic device is rated at 0.35 W when connected to 150 V. What is the resistance of this device?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
see, its the same kind of question so
\[0.35W=150V*amps\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so \[amps=\frac{ 0.35W }{ 150V }\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I was just about to put that lol

ty again :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and we know that \[Amps=\frac{ volts }{ ohms }, 0.00233333333=\frac{ 150V }{ Ohms }\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
remember ohms are the unit for resistance, normally noted with the sign\[\Omega \]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
here we have to substitute for ohms, so we pass them to the left side multiplying, and then we pass the 0.00233333333 dividing the voltage
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so we get \[\Omega=\frac{ 150V }{ 0.00233333333Amp }\]

got it ! :) so =64285.72
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yea.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sorry they left u so soon.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
um ok
OpenStudy (anonymous):
wow. nice pic.

perfect! :D
OpenStudy (anonymous):
wow dude. ur late.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
.-. ok, whatever you say
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I'm actually trying to help people here instead of flirting you know?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i'm helping finish the work u left unfinished. plus i could get her before u do anyway.

I don't care about that, I have a girlfriend, plus just hopping in and saying "yes" is not exactly helping much
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i know. but i also know not 2 leave a girl hanging.
