The total number of lamps is mathematically given as

N=24

<h3>What is the total number of lamps?</h3>

Question Parameters:

How many 60-watt lamps could be connected in parallel on a 15-amp, 120-volt

Generally, the equation for the Power  is mathematically given as

P=IV

Therefore

I=P/v

I=60/120

I=0.5A

Since the system does not exceed 80% of the rating

NI=I'(0.8)

N=15*0.8/0.5

N=24

In conclusion, the total number of lamps is

N=24

A 562 N trunk is on frictionless plane inclined at 30.0 degrees from the horizontal. What is the acceleration of the trunk down
Len [333]

Answer: 0m/s²

Explanation:

Since the forces acting along the plane are frictional force(Ff) and moving force(Fm), we will take the sum of the forces along the plane

According newton's law of motion

Summation of forces along the plane = mass × acceleration

Frictional force is always acting upwards the plane since the body will always tends to slide downwards on an inclined plane and the moving acts down the plane

Ff = nR where

n is coefficient of friction = tan(theta)

R is normal reaction = Wcos(theta)

Fm = Wsin(theta)

Substituting in the formula of newton's first law we have;

Fm-Ff = ma

Wsin(theta) - nR = ma

Wsin(theta) - n(Wcos(theta)) = ma... 1

Given

W = 562N, theta = 30°, n = tan30°, m = 56.2kg

Substituting in eqn 1,

562sin30° - tan30°(562cos30°) = 56.2a

281 - 281 = 56.2a

0 = 56.2a

a = 0m/s²

This shows that the trunk is not accelerating

The electrons involved in the formation of a chemical bond are called
tatiyna

Answer: Valence electrons

Valence electrons are those that are in the outermost or superficial layer of the atom, which means they have the highest energy compared to those of the inner layers.

Because of their position, it is easier for these electrons to interact with other atoms of their own element as well as different elements. This is done through the process of forming bonds when being attracted by other atoms.
