Answer:

R= 20 ohm  

Explanation:

Given that

Current ,I = 6 A

Voltage difference ,ΔV = 120 V

Lets take resistance of the stem iron = R

We know that ,the relationship between current ,voltage difference and resistance is given as

ΔV = I R

R=\dfrac{\Delta V}{I}

Now by putting the values in the above equation we get

R=\dfrac{120}{6}\ ohm

R= 20 ohm

Therefore the resistance of the steam  will be 20 ohm.

A 200-foot tall monument is located in the distance. From a window in a building, a person determines that the angle of elevatio
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

665 ft

Explanation:

Let d be the distance from the person to the monument. Note that d is perpendicular to the monument and would make 2 triangles with the monuments, 1 up and 1 down.

The side length of the up right-triangle knowing the other side is d and the angle of elevation is 13 degrees is

dtan13^0 = 0.231d

Similarly, the side length of the down right-triangle knowing the other side is d and the angle of depression is 4 degrees

dtan4^0 = 0.07d

Since the 2 sides length above make up the 200 foot monument, their total length is

0.231d + 0.07d = 200

0.301 d = 200

d = 200 / 0.301 = 665 ft

What is 1/12+7/9 hj​
Umnica [9.8K]

Explanation:

\frac{1}{12}  +  \frac{7}{9}  \\  \\  =  \frac{1 \times 3}{12 \times 3}  +  \frac{7 \times 4}{9 \times 4} \\  \\  =  \frac{3}{36}  +  \frac{28}{36}  \\  \\  =  \frac{3 + 28}{36}  \\  \\  =  \frac{31}{36}  \\  \\   \huge \purple{ \boxed{\therefore \:  \frac{1}{12}  +  \frac{7}{9}  =  \frac{31}{36} }} \\

According to the law of reflection, the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of
Darina [25.2K]

Before going to answer this question first we have to understand reflection and laws of reflection.

Reflection is the optical phenomenon in which light will bounce back to the same medium from which it had originated .

Whenever a light ray will incident on a mirror or any reflecting surface, it will be reflected. The ray which falls on the reflecting surface is called incident ray and the ray which is reflected is called reflected ray.

Let us consider a normal to the point of incidence.The angle made by incident ray with the normal is called angle of incidence.Let it be denoted as[ i ]

The angle made by the reflected ray with the normal is called angle of incidence.Let it be denoted as [r]

There are two types of reflection.One is called regular and other one is called as irregular.The laws of reflection is valid for both the types of reflection.

There are two laws of reflection.

FIRST LAW -It states that the incident ray,reflected ray and the normal to the point of incidence,all lie in one plane.

SECOND LAW- It states that that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection irrespective of the type of reflection.i.e i =r

Hence the correct answer will be angle of reflection.
