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 glass tube 1 mm in diameter is dipped into glycerin. The density of the glycerin is 1260 kg/m3, surface tension is 6.3x10-2 N/
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

The capillary rise of the glycerin is most nearly  y  =  0.0204 \ m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The diameter of the glass tube is  d =  1 \ mm =  0.001 \ m

   The density of glycerin is  \rho =  1260 \ kg /m^3

   The surface tension of the glycerin is \sigma   =  6.3 *10^{-2} \ N /m

The capillary rise of the glycerin is mathematically represented as

       y  =  \frac{4 * \sigma  *  cos (\theta )}{ \rho * g *  d}

substituting value  

       y  =  \frac{4 * 6.3 *10^{-2}  *  cos (0 )}{ 1260 * 9.8 *  0.001}

      y  =  0.0204 \ m

Therefore the height  of the glass tube  the glycerin was able to cover is

y  =  0.0204 \ m

You are driving a car with an automatic transmission; the shifter is mounted on the steering column. When you press down on the
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

From the narrative in the question, there seem to have been a break failure and the ordered step of response to this problem is to

1) Put on the hazard light to inform other road users of a problem or potential fault with your car and so they should continue their journey with caution.

2) Avoid pressing on the acceleration pedal as this might cause the car to gradually slow down due to friction and gravity

3)Try navigate the car to the service lane. This is the less busy lane where cars are sometimes parked briefly.

4) Continuously pump the breaks to try stop the car. Continuously pumping the breaks might just help you build enough pressure to stop the car because often time, there are some pressure left in the break.

5) At this point, the speed of the car should be relatively slow. So at this point, you could try apply the emergency hand break. Do not pull the emergency hand breaks if the car is on high speed. Doing this may cause the car to skid off the road.
