All household circuits are wired in parallel. A 1140-W toaster, a 230-W blender, and a 70-W lamp are plugged into the same outlet. (The three devices are in parallel when plugged into the same outlet.) Assume that this is the standard household 120-V circuit with a 15-A fuse.

a. What current is drawn by each device?
b. What is the potential difference across the toaster?
c. What is the potential difference across the blender?
d. What is the potential difference across the lamp?
e. To see if this combination will blow the 15-A fuse, find the total current used when all three appliances are on

Awater balloon launcher uses an elastic band with a spring constant of 115 n/m to use thee launcher you stretch thee band back with a balloon n it the water balloons have a mass of 1.3 kg a) if you stretch the band by 0.8 m, what elastic force will the band exert? b) with the band stretched 0.8 m, how much elastic potential energy is stored in the spring? c) if you release the band, it pushes forward. what is the kinetic energy of the balloon when it reaches the natural length of the band? d) what is the speed of the balloon when it reaches the natural length of the band?
