11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

Bicycle

Explanation:

A compound machine is a machine which is a combination of simple machines.

Simple machines are like the pulley, inclined plane or a screw.

Suppose a bicycle is considered, it has more than one simple machine combined together, for it to work. Wheel and axle is one of them and the beam which is pivoted at a fixed hinge is another simple machine in it.

The pedals of the bicycle function as the lever.

25. Explain why the speed of sound is faster in solids than in gases. Include two other factors Chapter 17 says the speed of sou
aksik [14]
In solids, particles or atom are very closely arranged compared to gasses. When these particles are arranged in such proximity, vibrations from sound are very easily transmitted from one particle to another in the solid. Hence, the sound vibrations can travel through the solid medium more quickly than through a gas medium.
Speed of sound also depends on its frequency and the wavelength.

house current is 120 volts. if a light bulb runs a current of 0.5 amps, what is the resistance of the bulb
Sauron [17]
Ohm's Law tells the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance.
It can be written in three different ways, depending on which ones you know,
and which one you want to find.

Here's the one we need:       

                           Resistance  =  (voltage) divided by (current)

                                               =  (120 V)  /  (0.5 Amp)

                                               =          240 ohms .
