A copper wire 225m long must experience a voltage drop of less than 2.0v when a current of 3.5 a passes through it. compute the

minimum diameter of the wire in millimeters (mm) if the electrical conductivity of copper is 60.0 x106 (ohm-m)-1 . answer should be in millimetres and carried out 2 decimal places (x.xx mm)

Answer:

V = I * R

R = 2 / 3.5 = .571 ohms maximum resistance of wire

R = ρ L / A where R is proportional to L and inversely proportional to A

A = ρ L / R minimum area of wire

ρ = 1 / μ = 1.67E-8 ohm-m resistivity inverse of conductivity

A = 1.67E-8 ohm-m * 225 m / .571 ohm = 6.68E-6 m^2

A = 6.68 mm^2 since 1 mm^2 = 10-6 m^2 or 1 mm = 10-3 m

A = Π r^2 = 6.68 mm^2

r = (6.68 / 3.14)^1/2 mm = 2.13 mm radius of wire

d = 2 * r = 4.26 mm

h(t) = - 16t2 + 64t + 112 where t is the time in seconds. After how many seconds does the arrow reach it maximum height? Round t

laila [671]

Answer:

2 seconds

Explanation:

The function of height is given in form of time. For maximum height, we need to use the concept of maxima and minima of differentiation.

$h(t)=-16t^{2}+64t+112$

Differentiate with respect to t on both the sides, we get

$\frac{dh}{dt}=-32t+64$

For maxima and minima, put the value of dh / dt is equal to zero. we get

- 32 t + 64 = 0

t = 2 second

Thus, the arrow reaches at maximum height after 2 seconds.

Strontium−90 is one of the products of the fission of uranium−235. This strontium isotope is radioactive, with a half-life of 28

Ludmilka [50]

Answer : The time passed in years is 20.7 years.

Explanation :

Half-life = 28.1 years

First we have to calculate the rate constant, we use the formula :

$k=\frac{0.693}{t_{1/2}}$

$k=\frac{0.693}{28.1\text{ years}}$

$k=2.47\times 10^{-2}\text{ years}^{-1}$

Now we have to calculate the time passed.

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

$t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}$

where,

k = rate constant = $2.47\times 10^{-2}\text{ years}^{-1}$

t = time passed by the sample = ?

a = initial amount of the reactant = 1.00 g

a - x = amount left after decay process = 0.600 g

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get

$t=\frac{2.303}{2.47\times 10^{-2}}\log\frac{1.00}{0.600}$

$t=20.7\text{ years}$

Therefore, the time passed in years is 20.7 years.

Two thin conducting plates, each 56.0 cm on a side, are situated parallel to one another and 7.0 mm apart. If 10^-10 electrons a

dsp73

Answer:

$E=576.5V/m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Length $l=56.0cm=0.56m$

Distance apart $d=7.0mm=0.007m$

Electron Transferred $n=10^{-10}$

Therefore

Total Charge

Since Charge on each electron is

$e=1.602*10^{-19}$

Therefore

$T=1.602*10^{-19} *10^{10}$

$T=1.602*10^{-9}$

Generally the equation for Charge density is mathematically given by

$\rho=T/A$

Where

Area

$A=0.56*0.56$

$A=0.3136$

Therefore

$\rho=1.602*10^{-9}/0.3136$

$\rho=5.10*10^{-9}$

Generally the equation for Electric Field in the capacitor is mathematically given by

$E=\frac{\rho}{e_0}$

$E=\frac{5.10*10^{-9}}{8.85x10{-12}}$

$E=576.5V/m$

anygoal [31]

Magma from the mantle rises and flows out through a vent onto Earth's surface as lava. This molten material, sometimes along with ash, cinders, and rock, builds up a mountain around the vent. The vent and its mountain together are called a sediment.

hope this helps
