Can I use a 5V 1A power supply instead of a 5V 2A one?

My tablet charger is kaput. I have an iPhone charger (same voltage range) and Volt, but only gives 1A whereas the tablet's charger is 2A.

Could I use the iPhone charger? Besides perhaps taking longer, would it harm the tablet?

It won't harm your tablet. It will just take longer.

It may harm the charger by overtaxing it's current capacity.

Will this work with my 500w PSU (Power Supply Unit)? Anyone know if a 500w PSU will be safe with my new GPU?

Why will my iPhone 4S only work with a power supply? Recently my iPhone will only operate when being charged. Once I take it off charge, the phone lasts for 1-2minutes (it is fully charged) and switches off. Then I try turn turn it back on, and it says it needs charging. please could someone give a reason for why this is and also how to tackle it. I will also give points for answers!
What is a good portable power supply for a pc? I have a Mac mini and a monitor, along with an iphone and speakers, what would be a good power generator/rechargeable box that has 4 female ends for wall outlets. I need something like this for trips
Supply and demand curve (economics)? Can I make a graph where D1 and S1 are the iPhone 4s and D2 and S2 are the iPhone 5 and I can compare the two on one graph like that?
