Lead atoms occupy a volume of 3 x 10-29 m3. Each atom contributes two free electrons. Calculate the Fermi velocity of lead.
1 answer:
<u>Answer:</u> The Fermi velocity of lead is 64.4 km/s.
<u>Explanation:</u>
To calculate the Fermi velocity, we use the equation:
where,
h = Planck's constant =
= mass of electron =
N = Number of atoms present in per volume of atom multiplied by number of electrons present in given atom =
= Avogadro's number =
(When the mass is in kilograms)
V = Volume =
M = molecular weight of lead = 207.2 g/mol
Putting values in above equation, we get:
(Conversion factor: 1 km = 1000 m)
Hence, the Fermi velocity of lead is 64.4 km/s

The H field is in units of amps/meter. It is sometimes called the auxiliary field. It describes the strength (or intensity) of a magnetic field. The B field is the magnetic flux density. It tells us how dense the field is. If you think about a magnetic field as a collection of magnetic field lines, the B field tells us how closely they are spaced together. These lines (flux linkages) are measured in a unit called a Weber (Wb). This is the analog to the electric charge, the Coulomb. Just like electric flux density (the D field, given by D=εE) is Coulombs/m², The B field is given by Wb/m², or Tesla. The B field is defined to be μH, in a similar way the D field is defined. Thus B is material dependent. If you expose a piece of iron (large μ) to an H field, the magnetic moments (atoms) inside will align in the field and amplify it. This is why we use iron cores in electromagnets and transformers.
So if you need to measure how much flux goes through a loop, you need the flux density times the area of the loop Φ=BA. The units work out like
Φ=[Wb/m²][m²]=[Wb], which is really just the amount of flux. The H field alone can't tell you this because without μ, we don't know the "number of field" lines that were caused in the material (even in vacuum) by that H field. And the flux cares about the number of lines, not the field intensity.
I'm way into magnetic fields, my PhD research is in this area so I could go on forever. I have included a picture that also shows M, the magnetization of a material along with H and B. M is like the polarization vector, P, of dielectric materials. If you need more info let me know but I'll leave you alone for now!

Answer:
a) F = 64.30 N, b) θ = 121.4º
Explanation:
Forces are vector quantities so one of the best methods to add them is to decompose each force and add the components
let's use trigonometry
Force F1
sin 170 = F_{1y} / F₁
cos 170 = F₁ₓ / F₁
F_{1y} = F₁ sin 170
F₁ₓ = F₁ cos 170
F_{1y} = 100 sin 170 = 17.36 N
F₁ₓ = 100 cos 170 = -98.48 N
Force F2
sin 30 = F_{2y} / F₂
cos 30 = F₂ₓ / F₂
F_{2y} = F₂ sin 30
F₂ₓ = F₂ cos 30
F_{2y} = 75 sin 30 = 37.5 N
F₂ₓ = 75 cos 30 = 64.95 N
the resultant force is
X axis
Fₓ = F₁ₓ + F₂ₓ
Fₓ = -98.48 +64.95
Fₓ = -33.53 N
Y axis
F_y = F_{1y} + F_{2y}
F_y = 17.36 + 37.5
F_y = 54.86 N
a) the magnitude of the resultant vector
let's use Pythagoras' theorem
F = Ra Fx ^ 2 + Fy²
F = Ra 33.53² + 54.86²
F = 64.30 N
b) the direction of the resultant
let's use trigonometry
tan θ’= F_y / Fₓ
θ'=
θ'= tan⁻¹ (54.86 / (33.53)
θ’= 58.6º
this angle is in the second quadrant
The angle measured from the positive side of the x-axis is
θ = 180 -θ'
θ = 180- 58.6
θ = 121.4º
The number of grams of carbon that combine with 16 g of oxygen in the formation of CO₂ is 6g.
When two elements combine to make more than one compound, the masses of one element combined with a fixed amount of another element are in the ratio of whole numbers, according to the law of multiple proportions.
When combined with oxygen, carbon can produce two different compounds. They are referred to as carbon dioxide (CO₂) and carbon monoxide (CO).
Carbon monoxide is formed by combining 12 g of carbon with 16 g of oxygen whereas Carbon dioxide is formed when 12 g of carbon reacts with 32 g of oxygen. The amount of carbon is fixed at 12 g in each case. The mass ratio of carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide is 16: 32, or 1: 2.
But in the given case, 16g of oxygen is reacting instead of 32g. Therefore, the number of grams of carbon reacting will be:
Thus, 6g of carbon will react with 16g of oxygen to form carbon dioxide.
