What is the resistance in ohms of the computer-monitor combination when a desktop computer and monitor together draw about 1.2 A of current and they plug into a wall outlet that is 120 V

60

A loop with a break in it that prevents current from flowing is called

an open circuit.

If the resistance of an electric circuit is 12 ohms and the voltage in the circuit is 60 volts the current flowing through the circuit

5 amps

Do electric and magnetic fields always form closed loops

Magnetic fields do, because there's no such thing as an isolated magnetic "pole",

and a magnetic line always starts and ends at opposite poles of the same

magnetized object.

But electric fields don't. You can easily have a bundle of isolated positive charge

over here and a bundle of isolated negative charge over there, whereupon the

lines of the electric field start on one bundle and end on the other bundle.

But electric field lines can also exist in closed loops, and they do that in radio waves, where the electromagnetic field propagates with an electric field component and a magnetic field component, and they both form closed loops.

A neutral atom has the same number of protons as it does neutrons

false

When electric and magnetic fields both exist it is called an

electromagnetic

What would increase the strength of an electromagnet
  1. More coils of wire around the magnetic material.
  2. More current through the wire in the coil.

Increasing the current flowing through the wire

Increasing the number of loops of wire

putting a piece of iron inside the loops of wire apex :)
Increasing the current flowing through the wire

Increasing the number of loops of wire

A material that prevents electrons from flowing freely is called what

an insulator

In a parallel circuit the is the same for every leg in the circuit

voltage

A portable electric heater has a resistance of 20 ohms It plugs into a wall outlet that is 120 V How much current in amps does it draw

A voltage source of 120 V will supply a current of 6 Ainto a load of 20 ohms.

Ohm's law: Voltage equals current times resistance.

The alternate question, 10 ohm heater running on 120 V, was split from this question because it was not the same question.

What is smaller protons or atoms

Protons are smaller than atoms; in fact, protons are located within atoms.

Are accidental discoveries are good as non-accidental ones

Most great discoveries started out as accidental. The discoverer usually wondered why something happened and began investigating and experimenting to learn about it.

True or false as the electric charge on two objects is decreased the electric force between them increases

With less electric charge there is also less electric force.

Which of the following are created by an arrangement of electric charge or a current

ab electric field and a magnetic field r-ob marcum - apex

What should you do if you were inside a car and a power line fell on the car

Stay in the car. If you need to leave the car (it's on fire) you should leap from the car in such a way that you do not touch the car and the ground at the same time. Of course, you should also avoid stepping on the power line.

If the pavement is wet, you should keep your feet close together or hop on one foot away from the downed line so as not to create an electrical potential between your feet.

In the circuit shown below with each bulb holding a resistance of 60 ohms how many amps of current are flowing

There is no circuit shown in your question. It is not possible for us to see your homework paper and answer this question.
