Explanation:

Ohm's law:

V = IR

120 V = (0.5 A) R

R = 240 Ω

Answer:

The resistance of alight bulb is 240 ohms.

Explanation:

Given that,

Potential difference of a light bulb, V = 120 V

Current produced in the light bulb, I = 0.5 A

We need to find the resistance of the light bulb. It can be calculated using Ohm's law. It is given by :

V = IR

R=\dfrac{V}{I}

R=\dfrac{120\ V}{0.5\ A}

R = 240 ohms

So, the resistance of alight bulb is 240 ohms. Hence, this is the required solution.

What is the velocity of a wave that has a wavelength of 20 meters and frequency of 0.5<br> Hz?
k0ka [10]

Answer:

v = 10 m/s

Explanation:

recall that velocity is related to wavelength and frequency by the formula

v = fλ

where v = velocity, f = frequency and λ= wavelength

Simply substitute these into the formula:

v = fλ

v = (0.5)(20)

v = 10 m/s

Pierre cycles at 4 miles per hour and travels a distance of 13 miles. How long
amm1812

Answer:

His journey took him 3 hours 15 minutes.

Explanation: 4 miles every hour. So 1 hr is equal to 4 miles, 2 hrs is equal to 8 miles, 3 hrs is equal to 12 miles. Now he just has 1 miles left, and since it takes him a hour to cycle 4 miles, 60 divided by 4 is 15. Therefore, 1 mile is equal to 15 minutes.

A compound consisting of only phosphorous and oxygen atoms is 43.64 % phosphorus by mass.The molecular mass/formula weight of th
DanielleElmas [232]
First, we calculate the mass of Phosphorous present:
283.88 x 0.4364
= 123.88 amu
Atomic mass of P is 31 amu

moles of P = mass / Ar
= 123.88 / 31
= 4.0 moles

We know that one mole of substance has 6.02 x 10²³ particles
Atoms of P = 4 x 6.02 x 10²³ 
= 2.41 x 10²⁴ atoms

If you tie a rope to a tree and move it up and down, you are creating what kind of wave?
loris [4]
This is called a<em> standing wave</em> since the waves don't move ALONG the rope. They just kind of stand in one place on the rope. if you just whip a long rope that's not tied to anything, you see the wave move along the rope, this is a TRANSVERSE wave. When you crack a qhip you send a transverse wave down the whip which concentrates in the tip, accelerating the tip to faster than the speed of sound resulting in a tiny sonic boom or "whip crack".
