Answer:

The number of electrons passes through the circuit if it detects a signal which persists for 1.0 microseconds is 6.25\times 10^{6}.

Explanation:

A circuit in a radio receiver requires a current of at least 1.0 microamp in order to detect a signal. It is required to find the number of electrons passing through the circuit if it detects a signal which persists for 1.0 microseconds.

It is known that the total amount of charge passing through a circuit is calculated as, Q=It.

Where I is the amount of current passing through a time of t.

For this problem, I=1.0 microamp, and t=1.0 microseconds. Therefore the amount of charge is,

$$\begin{aligned}Q&=I\times t\\&=1.0\text{ }\mu\text{A}\times 1.0\text{ }\mu\text{s}\\&=1.0\times 10^{-6}\text{ }\mu\text{A}\times 1.0\times 10^{-6}\text{ }\mu\text{s}\\&=10^{-12} \text{ C}\end{aligned}$$

The amount of charge in one electron is e=1.6\times 10^{-19} \times{ C}, therefore the number of electrons passing through the circuit while carrying 10^{-12} \text{ C} amount of charge is,

$$\begin{aligned}n&=\frac{Q}{e}\\&=\frac{10^{-12} \text{ C}}{1.6\times 10^{-19} \times{ C}}\\&=6.25\times 10^{6}\end{aligned}$$

The barometer of a mountain hiker reads 930 mbars at the beginning of a hiking trip and 780 mbars at the end. Neglecting the eff
lara31 [8.8K]
We could use the change of pressure to calculate for the height climbed by the mountain hiker. The change of pressure is given by

p = rho * g * h, where p is the change of pressure, rho is the air density, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height.

Using the conversion 1 mbar = 100 Pa,

(930 - 780)(100) = (1.20)(9.80)h
15000 = 1.20*9.80*h

h = 1.28 km

If you run at an average speed of 10mi/h how long will it take for you to run 2.5miles
givi [52]

Answer:

If the avg speed is 10mi/h and you want to know how long it will take to run 2.5mi/h you put that as a ratio 2.5/10 which is 1/4 of an hour so it will take 15 minutes to run 2.5 miles
