Answer:
Current = 8696 A
Fraction of power lost = 
= 0.151
Explanation:
Electric power is given by
where I is the current and V is the voltage.
Using values from the question,
The power loss is given by
where R is the resistance of the wire. From the question, the wire has a resistance of 
per km. Since resistance is proportional to length, the resistance of the wire is
Hence,
The fraction lost = 
Answer:
1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C
Explanation:
Let us arrange the charges in the ascending order and round them off as follows :-
1.53 x 10⁻¹⁹ C → 1.6x 10⁻¹⁹ C
3.26 x 10⁻¹⁹C → 3.2 x 10⁻¹⁹ C
4.66 x 10⁻¹⁹C → 4.8 x 10⁻¹⁹ C
5.09 x 10⁻¹⁹C → 4.8 x 10⁻¹⁹ C
6.39 x 10⁻¹⁹C → 6.4 x 10⁻¹⁹ C
The rounding off has been made to facilitate easy calculation to come to a conclusion and to accommodate error in measurement.
Here we observe that
2 nd charge is almost twice the first charge
3 rd and 4 th charges are almost 3 times the first charge
5 th charge is almost 4 times the first charge.
This result implies that 2 nd to 5 th charges are made by combination of the first charge ie if we take e as first charge , 2nd to 5 th charges can be written as 2e, 3e ,3e and 4e. Hence e is the minimum charge existing in nature and on electron this minimum charge of 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C exists.
Answer:
2271.16N/C upward
Explanation:
The diagram well illustrate all the forces acting on the mass. The weight is acting downward and the force is acting upward in other to balance the weight.since the question says it is motionless, then indeed the forces are balanced.
First we determine the downward weight using
Hence for a mass of 3.82g 0r 0.00382kg we have the weight to be
To calculate the electric field,
Since the charge on the mass is negative, in order to generate upward force, there must be a like charge below it that is repelling it, Hebce we can conclude that the electric field lines are upward.
Hence the magnitude of the electric force is 2271.16N/C and the direction is upward
Answer:
A conservative force is a force with the property that the total work done in moving a particle between two points is independent of the path taken Equivalently if a particle travels in a closed loop the total work done by a conservative force is zero
