The resistance in this circuit is 39.8 ohms.

Explanation:

Any circuit having resistor, battery and ammeter connected in series will obey the ohm's law in basic case. So according to the Ohm's law, the current flowing in the circuit through the ammeter will be equal to the voltage shown in the voltmeter or battery and resistor is the proportionality constant. So with this law

V = IR

So, Resistance R = V/I

As the voltage is given as 23.90 V and the current is given as 0.6 A, then resistance is

R = 23.90/0.6 = 39.8 ohms.

So, the resistance in this circuit is 39.8 ohms.

What happens in a global convection cell? apex​
zysi [14]

Answer:

In a global convection cell less –dense air at the equator rises and flows towards the poles. And from pole, the dense air sinks down and flows back towards the equator.... This movement of air is also supported by the Earth's rotation known as Coriolis Effect.

Which as more weight a kilogram of bricks in air or a kilogram of feathers in water? Explain your answer.
ale4655 [162]
A kilogram is a unit of weight. So a kilogram of bricks would weigh the same as a kilogram of feathers despite if its in water or air since weight is determined by gravity in relation to mass and not what substance the object is in.

Conceptual question about relativity: Imagine two events--
steposvetlana [31]
They are not the same event in that they occur in different places and times in most frames of reference. In the photon's frame they are not separated in either space nor time because photons don't experience time and at least mathematically all points on the spacetime manifold are the same point to a photon.  What the zero spacetime interval can tell us though, is that the events are connected by a light beam (light-like separation). There is as much time between the events as there is space and one event can conceptually cause the other. They are on the cusp between time-like and space-like  events.
