9 × 10²¹ electrons flow through a cross section of the wire in one hour.

<h3>What is the relation between current and charge?</h3>
  • Mathematically, current = charge / time
  • In S.I. unit, Charge is written in Coulomb and time in second.

<h3>What is the amount of charge flown through a wire for one hour if it carries 0.4 A current?</h3>
  • Charge= current × time
  • Current= 0.4 A, time = 1 hour= 3600 s
  • Charge= 0.4× 3600

= 1440 C

<h3>How many numbers of electrons present in 1440C of charge?</h3>
  • One electron= 1.6 × 10^(-19) C
  • So, 1440 C = 1440/1.6 × 10^(-19)

= 9 × 10²¹ electrons

Thus, we can conclude that the 9 × 10²¹ electrons flow through a cross section of the wire in one hour.

A circular loop of wire with 10 turns, radius 0.241 m and resistance 0.235 Ohms is connected to a 13.1 V power supply. The magne
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Given Information:  

Resistance of circular loop = R = 0.235 Ω 

Radius of circular loop = r = 0.241 m

Number of turns = n = 10

Voltage = V = 13.1 V

Required Information:  

Magnetic field = B = ?  

Answer:  

Magnetic field = 0.00145 T

Explanation:  

In a circular loop of wire with n number of turns and radius r and carrying a current I induces a magnetic field B

B = μ₀nI/2r

Where μ₀= 4πx10⁻⁷ is the permeability of free space  and current in the loop is given by

I = V/R

I = 13.1/0.235

I = 55.74 A

B = 4πx10⁻⁷*10*55.74/2*0.241

B = 0.00145 T

Therefore, the magnetic field at the center of this circular loop is 0.00145 T

At each corner of a square of side l there are point charges of magnitude Q, 2Q, 3Q, and 4Q.What is the magnitude and direction
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

F_T=6k\frac{Q^2}{L}\hat{i}+10k\frac{Q^2}{L}\hat{j}=2k\frac{Q^2}{L}[3\hat{i}+5\hat{j}]

|F_T|=2\sqrt{34}k\frac{Q^2}{L}

\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{5}{3})=59.03\°

Explanation:

I attached an image below with the scheme of the system:

The total force on the charge 2Q is the sum of the contribution of the forces between 2Q and the other charges:

F_T=F_Q+F_{3Q}+F_{4Q}\\\\F_T=k\frac{(Q)(2Q)}{R_1}\hat{i}+k\frac{(3Q)(2Q)}{R_2}\hat{j}+k\frac{(4Q)(2Q)}{R_3}[cos\theta \hat{i}+sin\theta \hat{j}]

the distances R1, R2 and R3, for a square arrangement is:

R1 = L

R2 = L

R3 = (√2)L

θ = 45°

F_T=k\frac{2Q^2}{L}\hat{i}+k\frac{6Q^2}{L}\hat{j}+k\frac{8Q^2}{\sqrt{2}L}[cos(45\°)\hat{i}+sin(45\°)\hat{j}]\\\\F_T=k\frac{2Q^2}{L}\hat{i}+k\frac{6Q^2}{L}\hat{j}+k\frac{8Q^2}{\sqrt{2}L}[\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\hat{i}+\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\hat{j}]\\\\F_T=6k\frac{Q^2}{L}\hat{i}+10k\frac{Q^2}{L}\hat{j}=2k\frac{Q^2}{L}[3\hat{i}+5\hat{j}]

and the magnitude is:

|F_T|=2k\frac{Q^2}{L}\sqrt{3^2+5^2}=2\sqrt{34}k\frac{Q^2}{L}

the direction is:

\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{5}{3})=59.03\°

vovangra [49]

Answer

Hi,

In a chemical equation, chemicals that react are the reactants, while chemicals that are produced are the products/by products. Both sides of the equation must be balanced.

Explanation

When writing a chemical equation, reactants reacts to produce products. For example in the equation for formation of water, hydrogen combines with oxygen as 2H₂ +O₂→2H₂O where the first part before the arrow represent the reactants and the next part after the arrow are the products. Reactants are on the left where as products are on the right.Coefficient 2, in this cases is used for balancing the equation.

Good luck!
