Answer:

I(current)=0.25A

R (resistance)=960ohms

Explanation:

1.)

P=60W

V=240V

I=?

Power= Current× Potential difference

P=IV

substitute 60 for P and 240 for V

60=I×240

I=60÷240

I=0.25A

Therefore, I=0.25A

2.) V=IR

Substitute 240 for V and 0.25 for I

240=0.25×R

R=240÷0.25

R=960W

Therefore, R=960W

Using what you know about air pressure and the water cycle, explain how hurricanes form. Why are there certain places on Earth m

Yuki888 [10]

Hurricanes form when hot air and cold air start colliding above water and they start to form a tornado but there is water in the tornado. Certain places on earth are more susceptible to hurricanes because they are closer to the coastlines. For example, in Iowa, and Illinois, they have a lower chance of a hurricane, while Florida, and Washington have a higher rate because they are along the ocean. Hope this helps.

0.45 kg soccer ball changes its velocity by 20.0 m/s due to a force applied to it in 0.10 seconds. What force was necessary for

Paladinen [302]

Assuming the accleration applied was constant, we have

$v=v_0+at\implies v_0+20.0\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}=v_0+a(0.10\,\mathrm s)$
