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.

During an early phase of the planet's existence, earth's atmosphere was similar in composition to the atmospheres of mars and ve
KengaRu [80]

The answer is carbon dioxide. This primordial earths’ atmosphere was composed by gasses from degassing of the earth's interior after its formation. It is after the beginning of life that oxygen levels began to rise and levels of carbon dioxide began to reduce in the atmosphere (as a result of photosynthesis).

How is frame motion used to measure motion
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

To describe motion accurately and completely, a frame of reference is necessary. frame of reference ( or reference frame) consists of an abstract coordinate system and the set of physical reference points that uniquely fix ( locate and orient ) the coordinate system and standardize measurements within that frame.

Explanation:

The different observations occur because the two observers are in different frames of reference. A frame of reference is a set of coordinates that can be used to determine positions and velocities of objects in that frame; different frames of reference move relative to one another.

A football punter accelerates a football from rest to a speed of 15 m/s during the time in which his toe is in contact with the
ioda

Answer:

Force, F = 44 N                

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of the football, u = 0

Final speed, v = 15 m/s

The time of contact of the ball, t = 0.15 s

The mass of football, m = 0.44 kg

We need to find the average force exerted on the ball. It is given by the formula as :

F=ma\\\\F=\dfrac{mv}{t}\\\\F=\dfrac{0.44\times 15}{0.15}\\\\F=44\ N

So, the average force exerted on the ball is 44 N. Hence, this is the required solution.
