An electric device delivers a current of 5. 0 a for 10 seconds. how many electrons flow through this device?

1 answer:

8 0

An electric device delivers a current of 5.0 A for 10 seconds then the number of electrons flowing through this device would be 3.125ₓ10²⁰

<h3>What is an electric charge?</h3>

Charged material experiences a force when it is exposed to an electromagnetic field due to the physical property of electric charge. You can have a positive or negative electric charge (commonly carried by protons and electrons respectively). Unlike charges attract one another while like charges repel one another. We refer to an object as neutral if it has no net charge.

Electric current is defined as the charge per unit of time.

The mathematical relation between current and the electric charge

I =Q/T

where I is the current flowing

Q is the total electric charge

T is the time period for which the current is flowing

By using the above relation between electric current and electric charge

I =Q/T

By substituting the values of current and time

5 =Q/10

Q= 50 Coulomb

The charge on one electron is -1.6 ×10⁻¹⁹ coulomb.

The number of electrons = Total charge /charge on the one electron

=50/1.6×10⁻¹⁹

=3.125ₓ10²⁰

Thus, the total number of electrons flowing through the device would be 3.125ₓ10²⁰.

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

the correct one is D,

Ultraviolet, x-ray, gamma ray

Explanation:

Electromagnetism radiation are waves of energy that is expressed by the Planck relationship

E = h f

where h is the plank constant and f the frequency of the radiation.

Also the speed of light is

c = λ f

we substitute

E = h c /λ

therefore to damage the cells of the body radiation of appreciable energy is needed

microwave radiation has an energy of 10⁻⁵ eV

infrared radiation E = 10⁻² eV

visible radiation E = 1 to 3 eV

radiation Uv E = 3 to 6 eV

X-ray E = 10 eV

gamma rays E = 10 5 eV

therefore we see that the high energy radiation is gamma rays, x-rays and ultraviolet light.

When checking the answers, the correct one is D

A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically, owing to waves on the surface of the water. It takes 2.5 s

gulaghasi [49]

(a) 0.96 m/s

The period of the wave corresponds to the time taken for one complete oscillation of the boat, from the highest point to the highest point again. Since the time between the highest point and the lowest point is 2.5 s, the period is twice this time:

$T=2\cdot 2.5 s=5.0 s$

The frequency of the waves is the reciprocal of the period:

$f=\frac{1}{T}=\frac{1}{5.0 s}=0.20 Hz$

The wavelength instead is just the distance between two consecutive crests, so

$\lambda=4.8 m$

And the wave speed is given by:

$v=\lambda f=(4.8 m)(0.20 Hz)=0.96 m/s$

(b) 0.265 m

The total distance between the highest point of the wave and its lowest point is

d = 0.53 m

The amplitude is just the maximum displacement of the wave from the equilibrium position, so it is equal to half of this distance. So, the amplitude is

$A=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{0.53 m}{2}=0.265 m$

(c) Amplitude: 0.15 m, wave speed: same as before

In this case, the amplitude of the wave would be lower. In fact,

d = 0.30 m

So the amplitude would be

$A=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{0.30 m}{2}=0.15 m$

Instead, the wave speed would not change, since neither the frequency nor the wavelength of the wave have changed.
