Explanation:

Given that,

Number of sodium ions at the negative electrode, Na^+=2.68\times 10^{16}

Number of chloride ions at the positive electrode, Cl^-=3.92\times 10^{16}

(a) The current flowing in the circuit is due to the positive as well as negative charges such that total charge becomes:

Q=(Na^++Cl^-)e

Q=(2.68\times 10^{16}+3.92\times 10^{16})(1.6\times 10^{-19})

Q = 0.01056 C

The current is given by :

I=\dfrac{Q}{t}

I=\dfrac{0.01056}{1}=10.56\ mA

So, the current passing between the electrodes is 10.56 mA.

(b) The direction of electric current is towards negative electrodes.

Explanation:

(a)   First, we will calculate the charge of sodium ions as follows.

              q = ne

                  = 2.68 \times 10^{16} \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19} C

                  = 4.288 \times 10^{-3} C

Now, charge of chlorine ions is calculated as follows.

            q' = ne

                = 3.92 \times 10^{16} \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19} C

                = 6.272 \times 10^{-3} C

Hence, the current will be calculated as follows.

             i = \frac{q}{t} + \frac{q'}{t}

               = \frac{4.288 \times 10^{-3} C}{1.00} + \frac{6.272 \times 10^{-3} C}{1.00}

               = 10.56 \times 10^{-3} A

               = 10.56 mA

Therefore, current passing between the electrodes is 10.56 mA.

(b)   Since, positive ions are moving towards the negative electrode. And, current is the flow of ions or electrons therefore, the direction of current is towards the negative electrode.

Force F → = (−8.0 N)iˆ + (6.0 N)jˆ acts on a particle with position vector r → = (3.0 m)iˆ + (4.0 m)jˆ. What are (a) the torque
disa [49]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

F=-8\hat{i}+6\hat{j}

r=3\hat{i}+4\hat{j}

a.We have to find the torque on the particle about the origin.

We know that

Torque=\tau=r\times F=\begin{vmatrix}i&j&k\\3&4&0\\-8&6&0\end{vmatrix}

By using the formula

\tau=50\hat{k}

b.\mid \tau\mid =\mid F\mid \mid r\mid sin\theta

\mid F\mid=\sqrt{(-8)^2+(6)^2}=10

\mid r\mid=\sqrt{3^2+4^2}=5

\mid \tau\mid=\sqrt{(-50)^2}=50

Substitute the values then we get

50=10\times 5 sin\theta

sin\theta=\frac{50}{50}=1

sin\theta=sin90^{\circ}

Because sin90^{\circ}=1

\theta=90^{\circ}

Which is a charcharacteristic of all ions?
ankoles [38]

An ion is created by the transfer of electrons. The metals give away the elections and become positively charged. The non - metals take on electrons.

Balance.

So an ion is any atom that either gives away or takes on electrons.

Shrinking Loop. A circular loop of flexible iron wire has an initial circumference of 168 cm , but its circumference is decreasi
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

103.1 V

Explanation:

We are given that

Initial circumference=C=168 cm

\frac{dC}{dt}=-15cm/s

Magnetic field,B=0.9 T

We have to find the magnitude of the  emf induced in the loop after exactly time 8 s has passed since the circumference of the loop started to decrease.

Magnetic flux=\phi=BA=B(\pi r^2)

Circumference,C=2\pi r

r=\frac{C}{2\pi}

r=\frac{168}{2\pi} cm

\frac{dr}{dt}=\frac{1}{2\pi}\frac{dC}{dt}=\frac{1}{2\pi}(-15)=-\frac{15}{2\pi} cm/s

\int dr=-\int \frac{15}{2\pi}dt

r=-\frac{15}{2\pi}t+C

When t=0

r=\frac{168}{2\pi}

\frac{168}{2\pi}=C

r=-\frac{15}{2\pi}t+\frac{168}{2\pi}

E=-\frac{d\phi}{dt}=-\frac{d(B\pi r^2)}{dt}=-2\pi rB\frac{dr}{dt}

E=-2\pi(-\frac{5}{2\pi}t+\frac{168}{2\pi})B\times -\frac{15}{2\pi}

t=8 s

B=0.9

E=2\pi\times \frac{15}{2\pi}\times 0.9(-\frac{15}{2\pi}(8)+\frac{168}{2\pi})

E=103.1 V
