A light bulb uses 40.0 W of power when connected to a 110 V (DC) outlet. If the same bulb is connected to a European 220 V outle

If the bulb's resistance doesn't change, the power it uses is proportional to the square of the voltage. So doubling the voltage quadruples the power.

On 220 V, the bulb uses (4 • 40w)= 160 W.

It glows very brightly.

For a very short time.

Because it also gets very hot, and burns out.

After a few seconds, it uses zero watts.

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

Follows are the explanation to this question:

Explanation:

In this solution, it is defined that there are two principal motions for the moon, which are its revolution as well as rotation. In such a movement called revolution, its Moon is relocating around the Earth, in which the approximate movement of the moon from around earth has an average movement of about 13.2° per day, or 92 degrees every week, that's once in 27.3 days.

A car is driving down the highway at a 50 m/s. Suddenly, the driver sees an accident and slams on his breaks, coming to a comple
vlada-n [284]

Given parameters:

Speed of the car = 50m/s

Time  = 10s

Unknown:

Distance traveled before the car stopped = ?

We need to establish speed - time - distance relationship.

Speed is the rate of change of distance with time. It is a scalar quantity .

Mathematically;

            Speed  = \frac{distance}{time}

    Distance  = speed x time

Input the parameters and solve;

    Distance  = 50 x 10  = 500m

The car traveled 500m before it stopped.

How fast must a 350 gram softball be traveling in order to have a momentum of .600 kg
BartSMP [9]
Momentum is mass times velocity. So here we can just substitute in our givens and solve for velocity.

.600kg*m/s/.350kg=1.71m/s

Hope this helps! Thank you!
