Answer:

The longer the cord, the lower the illumination

Explanation:

The illumination provided by the light bulb will be reduced as the length of the extension cord increases. This is because the resistance provided by the wire increases with its length.

Long wires have more electrical resistance than shorter ones.

Let us consider this formula:

Resistance =\frac{\rho L}{A}

From this formula, we can see that as the length increases, the resistance to current flow offered by the wire increases also provided the resistivity and cross-sectional area of the wire remain constant. As a result of this, the illumination will drop.

What conditions made it possible for earth's interior to separate into layer?
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

Separation of the Earth into layers (crust, mantle, inner core, and outer core) was largely caused by gravitational differentiation (separating different constituents at temperature where materials are liquid or plastic, owing to differences in density) early in Earth's history.
