We are given a series circuit with two light bulbs. In this case, the light bulbs act as resistors in series and the total resistance is:

That is the sum of all the resistances in series in the circuit. To determine the voltage we can use Ohm's law:

Where "R" is the total resistance and "I" is the current in the circuit. Replacing we get:
The correct answer would be C. it moves at a constant speed. The troposphere(the layer our weather is in) is not nearly high enough for gravity to be different at different altitudes.
Answer:
The force is 
Explanation:
The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image
From the question we are told that
The weight of the gate is 
The vertical component of F is 
From the diagram , taking moment about the pivot we have

Where
is the weight of the gate evaluated as

=> 
=> 
=> 
Time t=2.4 minutes=2.4×60=144 seconds
distance s=1.2 miles=1.2×1609=1930.8 meters
speed v=s/t=1930.8÷144=[tex] \frac{1930.8}{144} = \frac{160.9}{12} =[/13.408m/s ~nearly]
