Resistance = (voltage) / (current)

Resistance = (120 V) / (0.5 A)

<em>Resistance = 240 ohms</em>

<em></em>

Know what ?  There might be too much information given in this question.  I want to check, because it's possible that it might not even all fit together.

To calculate my answer, I only used the voltage and the current.  I didn't use the "60 watts", and I'm curious to know whether it even fits with the given voltage and current.

Power = (voltage) times (current).

Power = (120 V) times (0.5 A)

Power = 60 watts  

Well gadzooks and sure enough !  The three numbers given in the question all go together nicely.  

And not only THAT !

The answer could have been calculated by using ANY TWO of them.

Marvin Martian is standing on planet Potatoine.
prisoha [69]

Answer:

W = 113.98 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of PotatoineR=6.4\times 10^6\ m

Mass of Potatoine, M=2\times 10^{24}\ kg

Mass of Marvin, m = 35 kg

We need to find his weight on Potatoine. Weight of an object is given by :

W = mg

g is acceleration due to gravity, g=\dfrac{GM}{R^2}

So,

W=\dfrac{GMm}{R^2}\\\\W=\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 35\times 2\times 10^{24}}{(6.4\times 10^6)^2}\\\\W=113.98\ N

So, his weight on Potatoine is 113.98 N.

The quarks that compose a baryon may have charges of:.
Anna007 [38]

The quarks that compose a baryon may have charges of +(2/3)e and -(1/3)e which means have negative and positive charges.

<h3>What are quarks?</h3>

Quarks are the most fundamental particles that make up the atomic nucleus. All solid matter that we know is made of three particles, which are the up and down quarks, 'u' and 'd', and the electron.

Quark is one of the two basic elements that make up matter and is the only one of the particles that interacts through all four fundamental forces.
