Question 1

Which of the following best describes the difference between electromotive force (emf) and potential difference in a circuit?

Accepted Answer

Emf is the energy supplied per unit charge by a source when no current flows, while potential difference is the energy used per unit charge between two points in a circuit when current flows.

Question 2

A battery with emf $$\varepsilon = 12.0\ \mathrm{V}$$ and internal resistance $$r = 1.0\ \Omega is $$connected to a $$5.0\ \Omega$$ resistor. What is the terminal voltage across the battery when the circuit is closed?

Accepted Answer

$$10.0\ \mathrm{V}$$

Question 3

Which equation correctly relates electric current $$I$$, charge $$\Delta Q$$, and time $$\Delta t$$?

Accepted Answer

$$I = \dfrac{\Delta Q}{\Delta t}$$

Question 4

A wire has a resistance $$R$$ given by $$R = \rho \dfrac{l}{A}$$, where $$\rho is $$resistivity, $$l is $$length, and $$A is $$cross-sectional area. If the length of the wire is doubled and the area is halved, how does the resistance change?

Accepted Answer

The resistance increases by a factor of 4.

Question 5

Which of the following materials is most likely to have the lowest resistivity?

Accepted Answer

Copper

Question 6

In a series circuit with three resistors $$R_1$$, $$R_2$$, and $$R_3$$, which of the following statements is true?

Accepted Answer

The current through each resistor is the same.

Question 7

A $$9.0\ \mathrm{V}$$ battery with internal resistance $$0.50\ \Omega is $$connected to a $$8.0\ \Omega$$ and $$4.0\ \Omega$$ resistor in parallel. What is the total resistance in the circuit?

Accepted Answer

$$2.67\ \Omega$$

Question 8

If a current of $$0.300\ \mathrm{mA}$$ flows through a circuit, how long does it take for $$1.00\ \mathrm{C} of $$charge to pass a point?

Accepted Answer

$$3333\ \mathrm{s}$$

Question 9

Which of the following best explains why the headlights of a car dim when the starter motor is engaged?

Accepted Answer

The starter draws a large current, causing the terminal voltage to drop due to the battery's internal resistance.

Question 10

Which statement about conventional current and electron flow is correct?

Accepted Answer

Conventional current flows from the positive to the negative terminal, while electrons flow from negative to positive.

Question 11

A circuit contains three resistors in parallel: $$R_1 = 2$$\ \Omega$$, R_2$ = 4\ \Omega$$, and $$R_3 = 8$$\ \Omega$$. What is the equivalent resistance?

Accepted Answer

$$1.14\ \Omega$$

Question 12

Accepted Answer

$$I = \dfrac{\varepsilon}{R + r}$$

Question 17

Which of the following best describes the microscopic origin of resistance in a conductor?

Accepted Answer
