Answer:

$R\approx12.43 \,\, \Omega$

Explanation:

We can use Ohm's Law to find the resistance R of a wire that carries a current I under a given potential difference:

$V=I\,\,R\\R = \frac{V}{I} \\R=\frac{87}{7} \\R\approx12.43 \,\, \Omega$

Answer:

Ohm's law states that I=V/R (Current=volts divided by resistance). Since we're looking for resistance, we'll rewrite it as R=V/I. Then just plug in the numbers; R=84/9, R= 9 1/3 or 28/3. The resistance of the wire is 9.33... or 9 1/3 ohm's, depending on how you wanna write it.

Hope it helped u if yes mark me BRAINLIEST!

Tysm!

I would appreciate it!

A hockey puck with a mass of 0.175 kg slides over the ice. The puck initially slides with a speed of 5.25 m/s, but it comes to a

Answer:

1.70 J

Explanation:

The heat dissipated is the difference in the kinetic energies.

This is given by

$E = \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2 - \frac{1}{2}mv_i^2$

$v_i$ and $v_f$ are the initial and final velocities.

With <em>m</em> = 0.175 kg,

$E = \frac{1}{2}\times0.175(2.85^2 - 5.25^2) = -1.701\text{ J}$

The negative sign appears because energy is lost.

Hi there!

Two possible answers are air resistance and friction.

Friction is caused by the rubbing of the surface of the ground and the surface of the object. Although ice doesn't have much friction, it can still cause friction.

Air resistance is caused by friction between the air and the object. As the object moves along a surface, it collides into many air particles; thus, it slows down.

Hope this helps.
Have an awesome day! :)
