Example ProblemAs we saw in the previous chapter, a resistor connected to a power supply works as a heater. Suppose an investigator is using a resistor (a length of nichrome wire in an insulating sheath) connected to a battery to warm a solution in the laboratory. It’s a simple circuit:

A. What power does the resistor provide to warm the solution?

The investigator then decides that this warming is happening too slowly. She has another resistor, but doesn’t have another battery.

B. Which of the following circuits will provide more power? Slide 23-28
