Answer:

n=2.611*10^{9}electrons

Explanation:

Given data

mass of copper m=4.85 kg

charge of electron qe= -1.6×10⁻¹⁹C

To find

Number of electron n must be removed

Solution

Equate the magnitude of electric force Fe of repulsion between two two spheres to the magnitude of gravitational force of attraction between them

So

F_{e}=F_{g}\\ k\frac{q_{e}q_{e}}{r^{2} }=G\frac{m^{2} }{r^{2} }\\  k(q_{e})^{2}=Gm^{2}\\

where q is charge of each sphere which is equal to number n of removed electrons multiplied by each charge qe

So

k(nq_{e})^{2}=Gm^{2}\\n=\sqrt{\frac{Gm^{2}}{k(q_{e})^{2}} }\\ n=\sqrt{\frac{(6.67*10^{-11}N.m^{2}/kg^{2})(4.85kg)^{2}}{(8.99*10^{9}N.m^{2}/C^{2}  )(1.6*10^{-16}C)^{2}} }\\n=2.611*10^{9}electrons

Suppose you want to to double a copper wire's resistance. To what temperature, in degrees Celsius, must you raise it if it is or
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

T=280.41 °C

Explanation:

Given that

At T= 24°C Resistance =Ro

Lets take at temperature T resistance is 2Ro

We know that resistance R given as

R= Ro(1+αΔT)

R-Ro=Ro αΔT

For copper wire

α(coefficient of Resistance) = 3.9 x 10⁻³ /°C

Given that at temperature T

R= 2Ro

Now by putting the values

R-Ro=Ro αΔT

2Ro-Ro=Ro αΔT

1 = αΔT

1 = 3.9 x 10⁻³ x ΔT

ΔT = 256.41 °C

T- 24 = 256.41 °C

T=280.41 °C

So the final temperature is 280.41 °C.

Energy is the ability to do work. True or false
Blababa [14]
Work can be defined as the energy transferred from a body to its sorroundings, the energy spent to move a body, or the energy you need to alter a charged particle, so no energy, no work; thus, the statement is true.

How does the carbon rod of a cell beomes a positive<br>terminal?​
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

In the middle of a dry cell, is a rod made of carbon. Around the carbon rod is a chemical paste. At the same time, the carbon rod becomes positively charged. When this happens, electrical current flows out of the cell when a conductor is attached between the cell's positive and negative terminals.
