Power= current*voltage or P=IV

so 16 watts=I*7 volts

divide on both sides to isolate I so you get

I= 16/7 which is about 2.3 amps

A 2kg hockey puck is sliding across the ice skating rink at 2 m/s. A player hits the puck so it's velocity increases to 10 m/s.

konstantin123 [22]

The work done on the puck is 96 J

Explanation:

According to the work-energy theorem, the work done on the hockey puck is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the puck.

Mathematically:

$W=K_f -K_i= \frac{1}{2}mv^2-\frac{1}{2}mu^2$

where

$K_f = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$ is the final kinetic energy of the puck, with

m = 2 kg being the mass of the puck

v = 10 m/s is the final speed

$K_i = \frac{1}{2}mu^2$ is the initial kinetic energy of the puck, with

u = 2 m/s being the initial speed of the puck

Substituting numbers into the equation, we find the work done by the player on the puck:

$W=\frac{1}{2}(2)(10)^2 - \frac{1}{2}(2)(2)^2=96 J$

At a temperature of 320K, the gas in a cylinder has a volume of 40.0 liters. If the volume of the gas is decreased to 20.0 liter

Lerok [7]

Assuming the gas behaves ideally,
PV/T = constant. P will also be constant in this giving us:
V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂
40/320 = 20/T₂
T₂ = 160 K
The answer is A.

Star A and Star B have measured stellar parallax of 1.0 arc second and 0.75 arc second, respectively. Which star is closer? How

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Star A is closer than Star B

Explanation:

As we know that in parallax method of distance measurement the angle subtended by the star when it covers a distance of one Parsec arc length, it is known as parallax angle

Here we can say

$angle = \frac{1 Parsec}{distance}$
