Answer:

The equivalent resistance of the parallel circuit would be 20 Ω

Explanation:

To calculate the resistance of resistors connected in parallel, the formula to be used is

1/R = 1/R₁ + R₂ + R₃ + R₄...

1/R = 1/120 + 1/60 + 1/40

1/R = (1 + 2 + 3)/120

1/R = 6/120

1/R = 1/20 Ω

This can be rewritten or cross-multiplied to be

R × 1 = 20 × 1

R = 20 Ω

The equivalent resistance (R) would then be 20 Ω

What is folk remedies
mario62 [17]

A "folk" remedy is something you choose to eat, take, or do,
in order to correct some health issue, because your friend,
your grandmother, your religion, your shaman, your astrologer,
or your medicine man says that it's the right thing to do. 

It may or may not be effective, and it may or may not even be
safe.  What distinguishes it from mainstream medicine is that
its practices are based on hearsay, and have not been subjected
to scientific methods of investigation and evaluation.

Which list includes translucent objects only
Lunna [17]

Objects that let in light and blurry images are translucent.

Translucent is a term that refers to an adjective. This characteristic is the property of an object to allow the passage of light, without allowing visibility with high clarity through it.

This term is often confused with transparency. However, they differ because a transparent object lets light through easily and allows you to see clearly through it.

According to the above, objects that allow light to pass through but do not allow clear vision are translucent.
