The density of mobile electrons in copper metal is 8.4 1028 m-3. Suppose that i = 4.6 1018 electrons/s are drifting through a co

pper wire. (This is a typical value for a simple circuit.) The diameter of the wire is 1.2 mm. In this case, about how many minutes would it take for a single electron in the electron sea to drift from one end to the other end of a wire 31 cm long?

Answer:

The time is 106.7 minute.

Explanation:

Given that,

Density = 8.4\times10^{28}\ m^3

Current i = 4.6\times10^{18}\ electron/s

Diameter of wire = 1.2 mm

Length = 31 cm

We need to calculate the drift velocity

Using formula of drift velocity

v_{d}=\dfrac{I}{neA}

v_{d}=\dfrac{Ne}{tne\times\pi r^2}

Put the value into the formula

v_{d}=\dfrac{4.6\times10^{18}}{8.4\times10^{28}\times\pi\times(0.6\times10^{-3})^2}

v_{d}=4.842\times10^{-5}\ m/s

We need to calculate the time

Using formula for time

v_{d}=\dfrac{l}{t}

t=\dfrac{l}{v_{d}}

Where, l = length

v_{d} = drift velocity

Put the value into the formula

t=\dfrac{31\times10^{-2}}{4.842\times10^{-5}}

t=6402.31\ sec

t=106.7\ minute

Hence, The time is 106.7 minute.

What usually happens to the host’s DNA during the lytic cycle?
VARVARA [1.3K]
The lytic cycle is one of the two phases of reproduction in viruses. In this part of reproduction, the viral RNA joins with the DNA of the host and copies itself into the host's DNA pattern. This will cause the host cells to reproduce the viral cells instead of the original host cells. Overtime as the viral cells continue to reproduce they will overload and eventually cause the host cell to explode. When this occurs, then the produced viruses will continue on to infect the next cell.

A man in a gym is holding an 8.0-kg weight at arm's length, a distance of 0.55 m from his shoulder joint. What is the torque abo
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

  \tau =37.34\ N m

Explanation:

given,

mass of the weight = 8 Kg

distance = 0.55 m

angle below horizontal = 30°

torque about shoulder

  \tau = \vec{r} \times \vec{F}

  \tau = r \times F cos \theta

  \tau = 0.55 \times 8 \times 9.8 \times cos 30^0

  \tau =37.34\ N m

torque about his shoulder join is equal to   \tau =37.34\ N m

A 195 g glider is moving at 5.3 m/s on a frictionless air track. It then collides with a stationary 295 g glider.
lord [1]

Answer:For a perfectly elastic collision, the final velocities of the carts will each be 1/2 the velocity of the initial velocity of the moving cart. For a perfectly inelastic collision, the final velocity of the cart system will be 1/2 the initial velocity of the moving cart.

A commuter airplane starts from an airport and takes theroute. The plane first flies to city A, located 175 km away in a directi
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

245.45km in a direction 21.45° west of north from city A

Explanation:

Let's place the origin of a coordinate system at city A.

The final position of the airplane is given by:

rf = ra + rb + rc    where ra, rb and rc are the vectors of the relative displacements the airplane has made. If we separate this equation into its x and y coordinates:

rfX = raX+ rbX + rcX = 175*cos(30)-150*sin(20)-190 = -89.75km

rfY = raY + rbY + rcT = 175*sin(30)+150*cos(20) = 228.45km

The module of this position is:

rf = \sqrt{rfX^2+rfY^2} = 245.45km

And the angle measure from the y-axis is:

\alpha =atan(rfX/rfY) = 21.45\°

So the answer is 245.45km in a direction 21.45° west of north from city A
