Show all your work. Include units. Q E E V IR V I P P IV Q t t 1. Calculate the voltage loss of a food blender that has a resistance of 65 ohms and has a current of 1.85 amps. (3 marks) V = IR V = (1.85)(65) V = 120.25 Volts 2. Calculate the current flowing through a toaster oven that is plugged into a 120 volt outlet and has a resistance of 9.2 ohms. (3 marks) V I I I = IR = V/R = 120/9.2 = 13 Amperes 3. How much energy is consumed by a 450W computer left on for 2 hours? (3 marks) P = E/t E=Pxt E = (450)(7200) E = 3240000 J Convert time to seconds t = 2 hours x 60 minutes x 60 seconds = 7200 s 4. Convert your answer in the previous question to kWh. [1 mark] 1 kWh = 3 600 000 J From previous question E = 3 240 000 J E = 3240000 / 3 600 000 = 0.9kWh Another solution: 450 Watt x 2 hours = 900 Watt hours = 0.900 kiloWatt hours 5. Calculate the power rating of a shaver that operates on a voltage of 6 V and has a resistance of 25Ω. (3 marks) P = IV but we don’t know I Use V = IR to find current first: V = IR I = V/R = 6 / 25 = 0.24 Ampere Now P = IV P=IV P = (0.24)(6) P = 1.44 Watts Part E: Thinking and Inquiry /13 marks Four friends challenge each other to a run around a park. Tommy has four granola bars in his backpack, so he gives each runner one bar and some water. Full of energy, they then set off on their run, running over a big hill, then a hill only half as big, and then around some trees and back to their starting point. When they return they flop down on the ground, exhausted. This story can be compared to the workings of an electric circuit. With that in mind, answer the following questions: 1. a) What would be the: “resistors” in this circuit? Hills b) “charges” in this circuit? Runners 2. How many runners would a bystander count going by: a) b) c) d) at the beginning of the race? at the top of the first hill? at the top of the second hill? arriving back at the start? 3. If each of the bystanders in question #2 saw all the runners go by in a space of 4 seconds , what would the value of the “current” in this circuit be? Give a number and units. 4 4 4 4 In electricity, current is number of charges per unit of time. Here the “current” is 4 runners in 4 seconds, equal to 1 runner/second In other words, 1 runner goes by any point in the circuit every second. 4. What would represent the “battery” of this circuit? What is the value of the “voltage” of this battery be? Tommy is the battery. He gives a “voltage” of 1 granola bar per runner. 5. What is the amount of “voltage loss” in the first hill? Give a value and units. The first hill uses up 2/3 of a granola bar. 6. What is the amount of “voltage loss” in the next hill? Give a value and units. The second hill uses up 1/3 of a granola bar. 7. What would happen if they repeated the race but had twice as much energy at the start? They would run it faster, in less time. 8. What would happen if they repeated the race but the second hill was as big as the first? They would run it slower, taking a longer time
