1. The large window air conditioner in Anita Breeze's room draws 11 amps of current. The unit
runs for 8.0 hours during the course of a day. Determine the quantity of charge that passes
through Anita's window AC during these 8.0 hours.
2. The heating element of an electric toaster is typically made of nichrome wire (an alloy of nickel
and chromium). As current passes through the wires, the wires heat up, thus toasting the toast.
Estimate the overall resistance of a heating clement which is 220 cem long and consists of
nichrome wire with a diameter of 0.56 mm. The resistivity of nichrome is 110x10" N-m.
3. A power saw at the local hardware store bousts of having a 15-Amp motor. Determine its
resistance when plugged into a 110-Volt outlet.

When it is based on the generally adopted practice or the conventional way? 1.2 List and discuss the important elements of an electric circuit. 1.3 Why is it sometimes fatal to touch the wires in an electric power line and not nearly so dangerous to come into contact with an electrostatic machine that is developing a much higher voltage? Can one be "shocked" by touching a wire carrying a very large current in an automobile starting system? Why? Why are birds not injured by sitting upon a high-potential power line?arrow_forwardExercise b. Hard spin glasses.Physicists use a model called an Ising spin glass to study magnetic materials. We havea graph G = (V, E) and a function J : E → Z, where J(u, v) is the interaction strengthof edge {u, v} ∈ E. A state is a function s : V → {−1, +1}.1 The energy of a states is H(s) = −P{u,v}∈EJ(u, v) · s(u) · s(v).2 An edge {u, v} is called ferromagnetic ifJ(u, v) > 0, and antiferromagnetic if J(u, v) < 0. Ferromagnetic edges “pressure” uand v to be the same spin, and antiferromagnetic edges “pressure” them to be different.We wish to find the ground state, i.e., values of s(u) for each u ∈ V that minimize theenergy. Phrased as a decision problem, we ask whether a state exists below a certainenergy threshold:Spin-GlassInput: a graph G = (V, E), interaction strengths J : E → Z, and a threshold hˆ ∈ ZQuestion: is there a state s : V → {−1, +1} with H(s) ≤ hˆ?Show that Spin-Glass is NP-complete.1Each s(u) is called the spin of u; if u is a magnetic domain, think of s(u) as…arrow_forward9 V B.
