A  lightbulb carries more current immediately after it is turned on and the glow of the metal filament is increasing; option A.

<h3>What is current?</h3>

Current refers to the flow of electric charges typically electrons.

Current flowing through a metallic material decreases with increase in temperature of the material.

This is because the resistance of the metal increases with increase in temperature.

Therefore, for a light bulb, the current flow through it will be maximum when it is just turned on because the temperature, and hence the resistance of the  filament is at its lowest.

In conclusion, current flow decreases with increase in resistance.

A block has a volume of 0.09 m3 and a density of 4,000 kg/m3. What's the force of gravity acting on the
SCORPION-xisa [38]
Density = (mass) / (volume)
4,000 kg/m³ = (mass) / (0.09 m³)
(4,000 kg/m³) x (0.09 m³) = mass
mass = 360 kg 
force of gravity = (mass) x (acceleration of gravity) = (360 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = (360 x 9.8)  kg-m<span>/s² </span><span>=   </span>3,528 newtons .

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer: 10m/s

Explanation: Since a single vector with length of 1cm expresses 5m/s, the vector which has a length doubled from the original vector should have the speed which is also doubled.
