When the plutonium bomb was tested in New Mexico in 1945, approximately 1 gram of matter was converted into energy. Suppose another bomb is tested, and 1.5 grams of matter are converted into energy. How many joules of energy are released by the explosion?

Lightning is an example of what phenomenon? a release of a large amount of energyan absorption of a large amount of energya natural electric circuita natural electric current

A1.5m wire carries a 2 a current when a potential difference of 52 v is applied. what is the resistance of the wire?

The heater element of a 120 v toaster is a 5.4 m length of nichrome wire, whose diameter is 0.48 mm. the resistivity of nichrome at the operating temperature of the toaster is 1.3 × 10-6 ω·m. the toaster is operated at a voltage of 120 v. (a) what is the power drawn by the toaster? (b) if the cost of electricity is 12 ¢ per kilowatt-hour, and it takes 2 minutes to toast bread, how much does it cost for toasted bread? (c) when the heater element is at room temperature, is the resistivity in the nichrome wire greater than, less than, or equal to it’s resistivity when at operating temperature? explain.
