A simple circuit consists of a light bulb connected to the terminals of a battery. A voltmeter shows a potential difference of 1

8.5 V across the light bulb, whereas an ammeter registers a current of 0.485 A in the circuit. Determine the resistance of the bulb.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

38.14Ω

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Let's solve this question using Ohm's law which states that the current (I) flowing through a conductor is directly proportional to the potential difference or voltage (V) across it. Mathematically;

V =  I R       -------------------(i)

<em>Where</em>;

R is the constant of proportionality called resistance of the conductor and is measured in Ohms (Ω)

<em>From the question;</em>

V = 18.5V

I = 0.485A

<em>Substitute these  values into equation (i) as follows;</em>

18.5 = 0.485 x R

<em>Solve for R;</em>

R = 18.5 / 0.485

R = 38.14Ω

Therefore the resistance of the bulb is 38.14Ω

prisoha [69]

Answer:

Light passes through the gas

Light passes through the pure water

Light passes through some solids

Explanation:

In gasses, there are many spaces between the molecules. These spaces allow light to pass through them without any interruption.

In pure water, there are some spaces between particles. these particles allow some light rays to pass theough, some to move through the common boundary and reflec5 some of them.

in solids, some allow light to pass through as they are transparent or translucent

D. 51 N. The minimum applied force that will cause the television slide is 51 N.

In order to solve this problem we have to use the force of static friction equation Fs = μs*n, where μs is the coefficient of static friction, and n is the normal force m*g.

With μs = 0.35, and n = 15kg*9.8m/s² = 147 N

Fs = (0.35)(147 N)

Fs = 51.45 N

Fs ≅ 51 N
