Concept explainers

Ohm's law

Ohm’s law is a prominent concept in physics and electronics. It gives the relation between the current and the voltage. It is used to analyze and construct electrical circuits. Ohm's law states that the voltage across a conductor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it.

Path of Least Resistance

In a series of alternate pathways, the direction of least resistance is the actual or metaphorical route that offers the least resistance to forwarding motion by a given individual or body.

Compact fluorescent bulbs aremuch more efficient at producing light than are ordinary incandescentbulbs. They initially cost much more, but they last far longer and usemuch less electricity. According to one study of these bulbs, a compactbulb that produces as much light as a 100 W incandescent bulb usesonly 23 W of power. The compact bulb lasts 10,000 hours, on the average,and costs $11.00, whereas the incandescent bulb costs only $0.75,but lasts just 750 hours. The study assumed that electricity costs $0.080per kilowatt-hour and that the bulbs are on for 4.0 h per day. What is the resistance of a “100 W” fluorescent bulb? (Remember, it actually uses only 23 W of power and operates across 120 V.)
