The nichrome heating element in an electric drier operates on 240 V and generates heat at the rate of 2.0 kW.
 
  The heating element shorts out and, in repairing it, the repairman shortens the nichrome wire by 10. (Assume the temperature is unchanged. In reality, the resistivity of the wire will depend on its temperature.) What effect will the repair have on the power dissipated in the heating element?
  A) The power increases to 2.2 kW. B) The power is still 2.0 kW.
  C) The power decreases to 1.8 kW. D) None of the given answers is correct.

Question 2

A beam of electrons is accelerated through a potential difference of 1.0 kV before entering a velocity selector. If the magnetic field of the velocity selector has a magnitude of 0.010 T,
 
  what magnitude of the electric field is required if the electrons are not to be deflected as they pass through the velocity selector? ((e = 1.60  10-19 C, melectron = 9.11  10-31 kg)
  A) 5.9  103 V/m
  B) 6.0  105 V/m
  C) 7.2  106 V/m
  D) 1.9  105 V/m
  E) 1.1  105 V/m

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
