For copper, ρ = 8.93 g/cm3 and M = 63.5 g/mol. Assuming one free electron per copper atom, what is the drift velocity of electro

viktelen [127]

Answer:

$V_d$ = 1.75 × 10⁻⁴ m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Density of copper, ρ = 8.93 g/cm³

mass, M = 63.5 g/mol

Radius of wire = 0.625 mm

Current, I = 3A

Area of the wire, $A = \frac{\pi d^2}{4}$ = $A = \frac{\pi 0.625^2}{4}$

Now,

The current density, J is given as

$J=\frac{I}{A}=\frac{3}{ \frac{\pi 0.625^2}{4}}$ = 2444619.925 A/mm²

now, the electron density, $n = \frac{\rho}{M}N_A$

where,

$N_A$ =Avogadro's Number

$n = \frac{8.93}{63.5}(6.2\times 10^{23})=8.719\times 10^{28}\ electrons/m^3$

Now,

the drift velocity, $V_d$

$V_d=\frac{J}{ne}$

where,

e = charge on electron = 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

thus,

$V_d=\frac{2444619.925}{8.719\times 10^{28}\times (1.6\times 10^{-19})e}$ = 1.75 × 10⁻⁴ m/s

Elenna [48]

Thank you for posting your Physics question here. I hope the answer helps. Upon calculating the ramp with the horizontal the answer is 20.49 Deg. Below is the solution:

Y = 7 m.

A 110 V power line is protected by a 15 A fuse. What is the maximum number of 400 W lamps that can be simultaneously operated in

Nitella [24]

Answer:

Total number of lamps will be 4

Explanation:

We have given power of the lamp W = 400 watt

Potential difference across the lamp V=110 volt

We know that power is equal to $P=VI$

So $400=110\times I$

$I=3.636A$

Total current is given 15 A

As it is given that lamps are connected in parallel so total current is the sum of current through each lamp

So number of lamp will be $n=\frac{15}{3.636}=4.125$

As the lamp can not be in negative

So total number of lamps will be 4

The current in a lamp is 0.5 ampere when it is plugged into a standard wall outlet. What is the resistance of the lamp when it i

lidiya [134]

The resistance of the lamp plugged in to a standard wall outlet with a current of 0.5 amps is 240 Ω (ohms)

Explanation:

In the United States Of America the standard voltage is 120 v and their frequency is 60 Hz

Standard wall outlet voltage is 120 V

The current in the lamp is 0.5 ampere

Resistance (R) = V/ I

= 120/0.5

= 240Ω (ohms)

Thus the resistance of the lamp plugged in to a standard wall outlet with a current of 0.5 amps is 240 Ω (ohms).

An angry physics student releases a wrecking ball as shown. The wrecking ball is just about to hit the building at the final tim

daser333 [38]

Answer:

the force between the building and the ball is non-conservative (friction-type force)

Explanation

Explanation:For this exercise the student must create an impulse to move the ball towards the building, in this part he performs positive work since the applied force and the displacement are in the same direction.

When the ball moves it has a kinetic energy and if its height increases or decreases its potential energy also changes, but the sum of being must be equal to the initial work.

When the ball arrives and collides with the building, non-conservative forces, of various kinds; rubbing, breaking, etc. It transforms this energy into a part of heat and another in mechanical energy that the building must absorb, let us destroy its wall

Consequently, the force between the building and the ball is non-conservative (friction-type force
