How many amps does a 60 watt light bulb use when it's powered by 120 volts

Physics
1 answer:
faltersainse [42]4 years ago
6 0

                                                   Power = (voltage) x (current)

Divide each side by 'voltage':    Current = power / voltage

                                                               = (60 watts) / (120 volts)  =  0.5 ampere

When an object is falling and reaches a constant velocity, the net force on the object is ____ and the weight of the object is e
Maslowich

When an object is falling and reaches a constant velocity, the net force on the object is <em>zero</em> (it's not accelerating), and the weight of the object is equal to <em>the force of air resistance against the object</em>.  (choice-D)

A force acting over a large area will exert less pressure per square inch than the same force acting over a smaller area.
babunello [35]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Pressure is defined as:

p=\frac{F}{A}

where

F is the magnitude of the force perpendicular to the surface

A is the surface

Therefore, pressure is inversely proportional to the area of the surface:

p\propto \frac{1}{A}

this means that, assuming that the forces in the two situations (which have same magnitude) are both applied perpendicular to the surface, the force exerted over the smaller area will exert a greater pressure. Hence, the statement"

<em>"A force acting over a large area will exert less pressure per square inch than the same force acting over a smaller area"</em>

is true.

An 800-kHz radio signal is detected at a point 8.5 km distant from a transmitter tower. The electric field amplitude of the sign
Temka [501]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Frequency of radio signal is

f = 800kHz = 800,000 Hz.

Distance from transmitter

d = 8.5km = 8500m

Electric field amplitude

E = 0.9 V/m

The average energy density can be calculated using

U_E = ½•ϵo•E²

Where ϵo = 8.85 × 10^-12 F/m

Then,

U_E = ½ × 8.85 × 10^-12 × 0.9²

U_E = 3.58 × 10^-12 J/m²

The average electromagnetic energy density is 3.58 × 10^-12 J/m²
