Answer:

0.5 A

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi,

I believe the question is incomplete. However, as per the information provided:

The simplest way to calculate the Current (unit is Amperage), is understanding the relationship between the three: Power, Voltage and Current.

<em>(Quick Tip: </em><em>W=AV</em><em>; where W -> Watts (Power), A -> Ampere (Current), V -> Volts (Voltage))</em>

Using the formula we calculate the Ampere:

W = A x V

60 = A x 120

60/120 = A (We divide the equation be 120)

0.5 = A  (Simply reduce the fraction 60/120  = 1/2 = 0.5)

How many times smaller is 2 × 10^-10 than 4 × 10^-5
natta225 [31]

Answer:

200,000

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many times smaller is smaller number than greater number, divide greater number by smaller number.

Greater number =4\times 10^{-5}

Smaller number =2\times 10^{-10}

Then

\dfrac{\text{Greater number}}{\text{Smaller number}}\\ \\=\dfrac{4\times 10^{-5}}{2\times 10^{-10}}\\ \\=\dfrac{4}{2}\times \dfrac{10^{-5}}{10^{-10}}\\ \\=2\times \dfrac{1}{10^{-5}}\\ \\=2\times 10^5\\ \\=2\times 100,000\\ \\=200,000
