Light bulb is connected to a 110-V source. What is the resistance of this bulb if it is a 100-W bulb
1 answer:
Answer:
<h2>121ohms</h2>
Explanation:
Formula used for calculating power P = current * voltage
P = IV
From ohms law, V = IR where R is the resistance. Substituting V = IR into the formula for calculating power, we will have;
P = IV
P =(V/R)V
P = V²/R
Given parameters
Power rating of the bulb P = 100 Watts
Source voltage V = 110V
Required
Resistance of the bulb R
Substituting the given parameters into the formula for calculating power to get Resistance R;
P = V²/R
100 = 110²/R
R = 110²/100
R = 110 * 110/100
R = 12100/100
R = 121 ohms
<em>Hence, the resistance of this bulb is 121 ohms</em>

Radioactive decay is given by:
N = No x e^(-λt)
We know that N/No has to be 0.05
λ = 0.15
0.05 = e^(-0.15t)
t = ln(0.05)/(-0.15)
t = 19.97 days
The answer is b !!!! Hope it helps
True, the law of inertia effects both moving and non-moving objects.
The final mass after decay can be obtained by using under given relation:
half life period of As-81 = 33 seconds
mf = mi x (1/2^n)
= 100 x ( 1/2^(43.2/33))
= 40.4 %
(654m/s ) / (12m/s) = 54.5 kg.
