CHAPTER 2 A positive electric pole Ans: has fewer electrons than the negative pole/ An EMF of 1 V Ans: can

n sometimes produce a large current A potentially lethal electric current is on the order of Ans: 0.1 A A current of 25 A is most likely drawn by Ans: a typical household You are told that an air conditioner has cooled a room by 500 BTU over a certain period of time. What is this amount of energy in kWh? Ans: 0.147 kWh Of the following energy units, the most often used to define electrical energy is Ans: the kilowatt-hour The frequency of common household ac in the United States is Ans: 60 Hz Half-wave rectification means that Ans: half of the ac wave is cut-off. In the output of a half-wave rectifier, Ans: the effective voltage is less than that of the ac input wave. In the output of a full wave rectifier, Ans: the effective voltage is the same as that of the ac input wave. A low voltage, such as 12 V, Ans: can be dangerous under certain conditions. Which of the following units can represent magnetomotive force? Ans: The ampere-turn Which of the foloowing units can represent magnetic flux density? Ans: the gauss. A ferromagnetic material Ans: concentrates magnetic flux lines within itself.
