Answer:B

Explanation:

Power=p

Voltage=v

Resistance=r

Voltage for both:110v

For 60 watts bulb:

Resistance=v^2/p

Resistance=110^2/60

Resistance=(110x110)/60

Resistance=12100/60

Resistance=201.7 ohms

Current=power/voltage

Current=60/110

Current=0.55 amperes

For 100watts bulb:

Resistance=v^2/p

Resistance=110^2/100

Resistance=(110 x 110)/100

Resistance=(12100)/100

Resistance =121 ohms

Current=power/voltage

Current=100/110

Current=0.91

A beam of light is traveling through a medium at 200,000 km/s. It enters a different medium and speeds up to almost 250,000 km/s
shtirl [24]

Answer

From the question we can see that the in medium  1 speed of light is 200,000 Km/s where as in Medium 2 speed of light is 250,000 km/s.

We can conclude that medium 1 is denser than Medium 2.

In third medium Light speed halts so, the third medium is opaque.

We can say that

Medium 1 can be either water, glass.

Medium 2 will be gas

Medium 3 will be an opaque material.

How long does it take for carbon to become a fossil fuel
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Millions of years.

Explanation:

Fossil fuels are fuels formed by natural processes. It involves decomposition of dead and decaying animals, marine and plants for over million years. This some times take more than hundred million years to convert into fuel. This is why they are called non renewable resources of energy. The decomposition of dead plant species forms coal and decomposition animals of land and sea forms crude oil and gas.

If a board with an area of 3m2 has a 12 N force exerted on it, what is the pressure on the board?
Cerrena [4.2K]
4 N/cm^2 is the answer. the way you get this is the formula for pressure is P=F/A. So you would plug in the numbers which would make the equation P=12/3 which you know equals 4. The units for pressure is N/cm^2 or N/m^2

I hope this helps

HELP PLS.<br><br><br>What are the characteristics of the three states of matter?
vredina [299]

Matter can exist in one of three main states: solid, liquid, or gas. Solid matter is composed of tightly packed particles. A solid will retain its shape; the particles are not free to move around. Liquid matter is made of more loosely packed particles. Hopefully this helps:)
