Discuss why is mercury used in florescent lamp?<br>What is the use of choke?​
pentagon [3]

Answer:

A variety of light bulbs contain mercury. Mercury is important in lighting since it helps to the efficiency and longevity of the bulbs. In general, fluorescent and other mercury-added bulbs are more energy efficient and last longer than incandescent and other comparable lights.

The choke's job is to create a very high voltage between the filaments at first (across the two ends of the tube light). The choke again delivers a low voltage after the gas in the tube is ionized. A choke is a wire coil. Mercury vapor fills fluorescent tubes and lights.

vitfil [10]

Answer:

Cohort marketing.

Explanation:

When it comes to marketing, the term "cohort" refers to specific experiences, events or other factors shared by a group of consumers. These cohorts are used to identify and target segments of the market that, although they may fit into other models, are more effectively grouped and treated as one.

Cohorts are the things that separate specific groups of people even within their demographic groupings. For example, men between the ages of 55 and 70 are a demographic grouping. Men between the ages of 55 and 70 who share the experience of having served in the Navy on board aircraft carriers are a cohort. Cohorts are far more specific than standard demographic groupings and as such are a valuable tool for precisely targeted marketing campaigns and niche businesses.
