Answer:

240 Ω

Explanation:

Resistance: This can be defined as the opposition to the flow of current in an electric field. The S.I unit of resistance is ohms (Ω).

The expression for resistance power and voltage is give as,

P = V²/R.......................... Equation 1

Where P = Power, V = Voltage, R = Resistance

Making R the subject of the equation,

R = V²/P.................... Equation 2

Given: V = 120 V, P = 60 W.

Substitute into equation 2

R = 120²/60

R = 240 Ω

Hence the resistance of the bulb = 240 Ω

A spring with k = 19.5 N/cm is initially stretched 1.39 cm from its equilibrium length. a) How much more energy is needed to fur
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

Energy needed = 54.02 J

Explanation:

the Energy in an elastic spring from hookes law is given  as

F= ke , therefore the energy (E) is

E = \frac{1}{2} Ke^{2}

K = 19.5 N/cm

e = 1.39cm

E = \frac{1}{2} x 19.5 x 1.39

E = 13.55 J

The energy to stretch the spring for 6.93cm is

E = \frac{1}{2} x 19.5 x 6.93

E = 67.57 J

The more energy needed for the further stretch is

67.57 - 13.55

Energy needed = 54.02 J

2. Summarize how the force of gravity
-BARSIC- [3]
In summary, gravity is the force that creates the pressure to fuse atoms, which makes the stars shine. Eventually the temperature is high enough that the star starts fusing hydrogen into helium. When the outward pressure produced by the heating of the gas by fusion energy balances gravity, a stable star is formed.
