The joule, however, is a very small unit of energy and using the joule to state the amount of energy used by a household would require a very large number. The electric energy transferred to a resistor in a time period is equal to the electric power multiplied by time, E=Pt, and can also be calculated using E=I 2 Rt.

When the circuit is purely resistive, everything in this module applies to both DC and AC. Matters become more complex when capacitance is involved. We do consider what happens when capacitors are connected to DC voltage sources, but the interaction of capacitors and other nonresistive devices with AC is left for a later chapter.

If we divide both sides of the final equation by V T , we get the relationship between the total resistance of the circuit and the individual parallel resistances in the circuit. The total current through the circuit would be the sum of the three currents in the individual resistors.

The voltage drops occur when the current passes through each of the resistors and the total voltage drop for the entire circuit is equal to the sum of the voltage drops through the three resistors. The current through each of the resistors must be exactly the same because the current in a series circuit is the same everywhere.

(b) If we replace this bulb with a compact fluorescent light that provides the same light output, but at one-quarter the wattage, and which costs $1.50 but lasts 10 times longer (10,000 hours), what will that total cost be?
