A cook plugs a 500 W crockpot and a 1 000 W kettle into a 240 V power supply, all operating on direct current. When we compare the two, we find that
 a. Icrockpot < Ikettle and Rcrockpot < Rkettle. b. Icrockpot < Ikettle and Rcrockpot > Rkettle. c. Icrockpot = Ikettle and Rcrockpot = Rkettle. d. Icrockpot > Ikettle and Rcrockpot < Rkettle. e. Icrockpot > Ikettle and Rcrockpot > Rkettle.

Question 2

 a. 234
  b. 1 350
  c. 2 080
