Solve the following problems. Show ALL your work. (Don’t forget units!!)
___________ 46. A toy bulb draws 0.68 A when working. If it has a resistance of 2.2
ohms, what voltage battery does the toy need? (2 SDs)

___________ 47. The voltage difference across a light bulb is 140 volts and the
resistance of the lightbulb is 180 ohms. How much current is flowing through the
lightbulb? (2 SDs)

___________ 48. A portable CD player uses one AA 1.5 V battery. (If it were two 1.5 V
batteries, then the voltage would be 3.0 V) When operating, the player uses 62 mA of
current. How much electrical resistance does the CD player have? (2 SDs)

___________ 49. If an air conditioner uses 1700 watts of power when plugged into a wall
socket that operates at a voltage of 240 volts, what is the current flowing though the air
conditioner? (2 SDs) (P = V * I)
