Power = (voltage) x (current)
500 W = (120 v) x (current)
Current = (500 w) / (120 v) = 4-1/6 amperes .
Power and current are both rates.
Power is the rate of using energy ... joules per second.
Current is the rate of flowing charge ... coulombs per second.
Neither quantity depends on how long you keep it up.
They're both going on continuously while the vacuum is running.
Between noon and 2 pm, the amount of water in the rain gauge decreased.
This can be caused by evaporation, which turns water into water vapor.
Precipitation would increase the amount of rain water in the gauges, not decrease it.
Condensation occurs after evaporation but wouldn't decrease the water in the gauges by itself.
Runoff is when water on land drains into water sources such as lakes, rivers, oceans, etc.
So the answer is A. evaporation.
An object's momentum is the product of its mass and its velocity:
p = mv
p is its momentum, m is its mass, and v is its velocity.
Given values:
p = -80kg×m/s
m = 8kg
Plug in these values and solve for v:
-80 = 8v
v = -10m/s
Choice D
During the fall and spring equinox the Earth is not in a position or speed to experience extreme changes in weather, but rather are in a transitional period.
