Answer:

Current, I = 0.029 A

Explanation:

It is given that,

Power of the nightlight plug, P = 3.5 watts

The voltage provided by the house circuit,V = 120 volts

We know that the power of an electrical appliance is given by :

Power = voltage × current

I=\dfrac{P}{V}

I=\dfrac{3.5\ W}{120\ V}

I = 0.029 A

Hence, the current through this bulb is 0.029 A. Hence, this is the required solution.

Base on the said question or problem that state and ask to calculate the current of the said light bulb and in my further calculation and further analysis, I would say that the current of the light bulb would be 0.0292. I hope you are satisfied with my answer and feel free to ask for more

Which of the following ocean motions are powered by the wind? waves tides surface currents deep ocean currents
Effectus [21]

At the entrance of most beaches, there is a bulletin board with notices about water conditions: maybe a faded sign warning about rip currents and a list of this week's tide tables. Most people pass them by without a second thought, but if you want to enter the ocean, it is important to know its movements, whether to avoid being caught in a riptide or to figure out when the waves will be at their best.


Hope this helps

Why forces are balanced and unbalanced? need help with this the lesson is tommorow
Naya [18.7K]
"Balanced" means that if there's something pulling one way, then there's also
something else pulling the other way. 

-- If there's a kid sitting on one end of a see-saw, and another one with the
same weight sitting on the other end, then the see-saw is balanced, and
neither end goes up or down.  It's just as if there's nobody sitting on it.

-- If there's a tug-of-war going on, and there are 300 freshmen pulling on one
end of a rope, and another 300 freshmen pulling in the opposite direction on
the other end of the rope, then the hanky hanging from the middle of the rope
doesn't move.  The pulls on the rope are balanced, and it's just as if nobody
is pulling on it at all.

-- If a lady in the supermarket is pushing her shopping cart up the aisle, and her
two little kids are in front of the cart pushing it in the other direction, backwards,
toward her.  If the kids are strong enough, then the forces on the cart can be
balanced. Then the cart doesn't move at all, and it's just as if nobody is pushing
on it at all.

From these examples, you can see a few things:

-- There's no such thing as "a balanced force" or "an unbalanced force".
It's a <em><u>group</u> of forces</em> that is either balanced or unbalanced.

-- The group of forces is balanced if their strengths and directions are
just right so that each force is canceled out by one or more of the others.

-- When the group of forces on an object is balanced, then the effect on the
object is just as if there were no force on it at all.

How do sea surface temperatures affect evaporation rate?
kotegsom [21]
<span>Answer: The temperature doesn't affect the evaporation rate, but affects on how much of water a parcel of air can contain when saturated which is known by the absolute humidity. Hurricanes are usually happening when the temperature of the sea water west of the Cape Verde islands is over 27 degrees Celsius. If ahead of the path of a hurricane, the sea water temperature drops then it will be less moisture in the air and perhaps the hurricane will fade out. But it is not as simple. How strong a tropical storm is is relative to the difference of temperture between ground level and the top of the troposphere. The greater the difference, the faster the air will rise and the deeper the pressure will be, forcing surrounding air to rush in, thus forming a hurricane force wind. Then there is the fact that the wet adiabatic lapse rate is about half that of dry air. It means that rising moist air cools down slower and therefore rises higher. Hence water is the true fuel of bad weather. But it can't be isolated from the fact that the difference of temperature must be great too. What we often forget is that the tropopause (the border to the stratosphere) is much higher over the equator and therefore, much colder than e.g. the poles.</span>
