Suppose an auto headlight is on for 1 hour. Two amperes of current flows through it from the 12 -volt battery of the car. (a) How many coulombs of charge flow through the headlight during the hour? (b) How much energy does this charge release (in joules)? (c) How much is the power in watts of the headlight used like this?
Your car's 30.0-W headlight and 2.40-kW starter are ordinarily connected in parallel in a 12.0 -V system. What power would one headlight and the starter consume if connected in series to a 12.0 -V battery? (Neglect any other resistance in the circuit and any change in resistance in the two devices.)
