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

At a certain instant after jumping from the airplane a, a skydiver b is in the position shown and has reached a terminal (constant) speed vb = 52 m/s. the airplane has the same constant speed va = 52 m/s, and after a period of level flight is just beginning to follow the circular path shown of radius ρa = 2330 m. (a) determine the velocity and acceleration of the airplane relative to the skydiver. (b) determine the time rate of change of the speed vr of the airplane and the radius of curvature ρr of its path, both as observed by the nonrotating skydiver.
