QUICK QUIZ 17.3In the figure below, does the resistance of the diode (a) increase or (b) decrease as the positive voltage ∆V increases?
21
QUICK QUIZ 17.3 ANSWER
(b). The slope of the line tangent to the curve at a point is the reciprocal of the resistance at that point. Note that as ΔV increases, the slope (and hence 1/R) increases. Thus, the resistance decreases.

QUICK QUIZ 17.4Aliens with strange powers visit Earth and double every linear dimension of every object on the surface of the Earth. Does the electrical cord from the wall socket to your floor lamp now have (a) more resistance than before, (b) less resistance, or (c) the same resistance? Does the light bulb filament glow (d) more brightly than before, (e) less brightly, or (f) the same? (Assume the resistivities of materials remain the same before and after the doubling.)
24
QUICK QUIZ 17.4 ANSWER(b), (d). The length of the line cord will
double in this event. This would tend to increase the resistance of the line cord. But the doubling of the radius of the line cord results in the increase of the cross-sectional area by a factor of 4. This would reduce the resistance more than the doubling of length increases it. The net result is a decrease in resistance. The same effect would occur for the lightbulb filament. The lowered resistance would result in a larger current in the filament, causing it to glow more brightly.

QUICK QUIZ 17.5A voltage V is applied across the ends of a nichrome heater wire having a cross-sectional area A and length L. The same voltage is applied across the ends of a second heater wire having a cross-sectional area A and length 2L. Which wire gets hotter? (a) the shorter wire, (b) the longer wire, or (c) not enough information to say.
26
QUICK QUIZ 17.5 ANSWER
(a). The resistance of the shorter wire is half that of the longer wire. The power dissipated, P = (ΔV)2/R, (and hence the rate of heating) will be greater for the shorter wire. Consideration of the expression P = I2R might initially lead one to think that the reverse would be true. However, one must realize that the currents will not be the same in the two wires.

QUICK QUIZ 17.6
For the two resistors shown here, rank the currents at points a through f, from largest to smallest.
37
QUICK QUIZ 17.6 ANSWERIa = Ib > Ic = Id > Ie = If . Charges constituting the current Ia leave the positive terminal of the
battery and then split to flow through the two bulbs; thus, Ia = Ic + Ie. Because the potential
difference ΔV is the same across the two bulbs and because the power delivered to a device is P = I(ΔV), the 60–W bulb with the higher power rating must carry the greater current. Because
charge does not accumulate in the bulbs, all the charge flowing into a bulb from the left has to
flow out on the right; consequently Ic = Id and Ie = If. The two currents leaving the bulbs
recombine to form the current back into the battery, If + Id = Ib.
38
QUICK QUIZ 17.7Two resistors, A and B, are connected across the same potential difference. The resistance of A is twice that of B. (a) Which resistor dissipates more power? (b) Which carries the greater current?
39
QUICK QUIZ 17.7 ANSWERB, B. Because the voltage across each
resistor is the same, and the rate of energy delivered to a resistor is P = (ΔV)2/R, the resistor with the lower resistance exhibits the higher rate of energy transfer. In this case, the resistance of B is smaller than that for A and thus B dissipates more power. Furthermore, because P = I(ΔV), the current carried by B is larger than that of A.
