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

What is the voltage drop across an alarm clock that is connected to a circuit with a current of 1.10A and a resistance of 90Ω?
vfiekz [6]

V = 99 volts

Explanation:

The voltage drop can be calculated using Ohm's law:

V = IR

= (1.10 A)(90 Ω)

= 99 volts
