The grid in a high-vacuum triode is usually kept negatively charged with respect to the cathode so that
the electrons may be
a. accelerated toward the cathode.
b. attracted to the anode instead of the grid.
c. attracted to the cathode instead of the grid.
d. accelerated toward the anode.

When a resistor with resistance r is connected to a 1.50-v flashlight battery, the resistor consumes 0.0625 w of electrical power. (throughout, assume that each battery has negligible internal resistance.) what power does the resistor consume if it is connected to a 12.6-v car battery? assume that r remains constant when the power consumption changes.

An internally reversible refrigerator has a modified coefficient of performance accounting for realistic heat transfer processes of where qin is the refrigerator cooling rate, qout is the heat rejection rate, and is the power input. show that copm can be expressed in terms of the reservoir temperatures tc and th, the cold and hot thermal resistances rt, c and rt, h, and qin, as where rtot rt, c rt, h. also, show that the power input may be expressed as 1.39 a household refrigerator operates with cold- and hot-temperature reservoirs of tc 5 c and th 25 c, respectively. when new, the cold and hot side resistances are rc, n 0.05 k/w and rh, n 0.04 k/w, respectively. over time, dust accumulates on the refrigerator’s condenser coil, which is located behind the refrigerator, increasing the hot side resistance to rh, d 0.1 k/w. it is desired to have a refrigerator cooling rate of qin 750 w. using the results of problem 1.38, determine the modified coefficient of performance and the required power input w under (a) clean and (b) dusty coil conditions. internally reversible refrigerator qout qin w high-temperature reservoir low-temperature reservoir th th, i tc, i tc high-temperature side resistance low-temperature side resistance w qin th tc qinrtot tc qinrtot copm tc qinrtot th tc

1. jay fills a wagon with sand (about 20 kg) and pulls it with a rope 30 m along the beach. he holds the rope 25° above the horizontal. the rope exerts a 20-n tension force on the wagon. how much work does the rope do on the wagon?
