0.04 Ampere of current will flow through the silicon.

<h3>What is Electrical Current ?</h3>

Electrical current is the rate at which charges flow in the conductor. It is measured in Ampere (A)

What current flows through a 2.54cm diameter rod of pure silicon that is 20.0cm long ,when 1.00x10000V is applied to it

The given diameter is 2.54 cm, the radius r = 2.54/2 = 1.27 cm

Convert cm to m

  • r = 1.27/100 = 0.0127m
  • L = 20/100 = 0.2m

Area A = πr²

A = π × 0.0127²

A = 0.000507 m²

The resistivity ρ of silicon material is 640 Ωm

Resistance R =  ρL / A

R = ( 640 × 0.2 ) / 0.000506

R = 128 / 0.000506

R = 252964.43 Ω

From Ohm's law

V = IR

10000 = 252964.43I

I = 10000 / 252964.43

I = 0.0395A

Therefore, 0.04 Ampere of current will flow through the silicon.

Kitty [74]

Answer:

d_{b} = 2 d_{a}

Explanation:

The electrical resistance for a cylindrical wire is described by the expression

         R = ρ L / A

The area of ​​a circle is

     A = π r²

     r = d / 2

     A = π d²/4

We substitute

      R = ρ L  4 /π d²

Let's apply this expression to our case, they indicate that the resistance of wire A is 4 times the resistance of wire B

    R_{a} = 4 R_{b}

We substitute

    ρ  4/π d_{a}² = 4 (ρ  4/π d_{b}²)

    1 / d_{a}² = 4 / d_{b}²

     d_{a} = d_{b} / 2

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

6.29591\times 10^{-6}\ N/C^2

Explanation:

Flux is given by

\phi=EAcos\theta

A = Area

A=0.4\times 10^{-3}\times 0.6\times 10^{-3}

E = Electric field = 76.7 N/C

Angle is given by

\theta=90-20\\\Rightarrow \theta=70^{\circ}

\phi=76.7\times 0.4\times 10^{-3}\times 0.6\times 10^{-3}\times cos70\\\Rightarrow \phi=6.29591\times 10^{-6}\ N/C^2

The flux through the sheet is 6.29591\times 10^{-6}\ N/C^2

Which type of electromagnetic radiation may damage central nervous system
Furkat [3]

Answer:

microwaves

Explanation:

microwaves do emit radiation, technically speaking, but it's not the DNA-damaging radiation we're used to hearing about. Microwaves, along with radio waves from (you guessed it) radio and cell phone towers, are types of non-ionizing radiation.
