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

All valid equations in physics have consistent units. Are all equations that have consistent units valid?
sweet [91]

Answer:

c. No. An equation may have consistent units but still be numerically invaid.

Explanation:

For an equation to be corrected, it should have consistent units and also be numerically correct.

Most equation are of the form;

(Actual quantity) = (dimensionless constant) × (dimensionally correct quantity)

From the above, without the dimensionless constant the equation would be numerically wrong.

For example; Kinetic energy equation.

KE = 0.5(mv^2)

Without the dimensionless constant '0.5' the equation would be dimensionally correct but numerically wrong.

What are some ways that electric fields are similar to magnetic fields?
sattari [20]

Answer:

The correct answers are the proportionality of the fields concerning distance, vector fields, and forces at a distance.

Explanation:

The similarities between magnetic fields and electric fields are that electric fields are produced by two charges that can be positive and negative. Magnetic fields are associated with two magnetic poles, although they are also produced by moving charges. Both fields are inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the sources, both fields are vectorial and both act by distant forces.
