Answer:

The light bulb would glow brighter.

Explanation:

Resistance is the opposition to current flow and in Ohm's law is represented as a constant in the equation V = IR with V the voltage, I the current and R the resistance.

Now let's assume we are in a series circuit that has only one path for electricity to follow to better explain what would happen to a light bulb if the voltage increased but the resistance stayed the same. Based on ohm's law equation, the voltage is directly proportional to the current and the resistance is constant. An increase in the voltage is therefore an increase in the current  which flows throught the light bulb making it glow brighter while a decrease in voltage results in a decrease in current flowing through the light bulb making it dim.

If 2 grams of element X combine with 4 grams of element Y to form compound XY, how many grams of element Y would combine with 11
kykrilka [37]
This is sort of simple.  2 grams of X can combine with 4 grams of Y to form XY.  Y is 2 times the amount of grams in X.  So if there are 11 grams of X there are 22 grams of Y to form XY.  Or you could take 11 divided by 2 is 5.5 and then multiply 4 by 5.5 to get 22.  If this is wrong please tell me I would be very happy to know.

A ship sets out to sail to a point 154 km due north. An unexpected storm blows the ship to a point 72 km due east of its startin
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

<h2>170km</h2>

Explanation:

If a ship sets out to sail to a point 154 km due north and an unexpected storm blows the ship to a point 72 km due east of its starting point, then the ships distance from the original destination can be gotten by finding the displacement of the ship and this can be gotten by using pythagoras theorem.

Let D be the unknown displacement

According to the theorem;

D² = 154² + 72²

D² = 23716 + 5184

D² = 28900

D = √28900

D = 170km

<em>This means that the ship must now sail a distance of 170km for it to reach its original destination.</em>
