Question:

One lightbulb is marked “25 W 120 V,” and another “100 W 120 V”; this means that each converts its respective power when plugged into a constant 120-V potential difference.
(a) Find the resistance of each bulb.
(b) How long does it take for 1.00 C to pass through the dim bulb? How is this charge different upon its exit from, versus its entry into, the bulb?
(c) How long does it take for 1.00 J to pass through the dim bulb? How is this energy different upon its exit from, versus its entry into, the bulb?
(d) Find the cost of running the dim bulb continuously for 30.0 days if the electric company sells its product at $0.070 0 per kWh. What physical quantity does the electric company sell? What is its price for one SI unit of this quantity?
