A small but measurable current of 3.8 × 10-10 A exists in a copper wire whose diameter is 2.5 mm. The number of charge carriers

per unit volume is 8.49 × 1028 m-3. Assuming the current is uniform, calculate the (a) current density and (b) electron drift speed.

Answer:

a) 4.9*10^-6

b) 5.71*10^-15

Explanation:

Given

current, I = 3.8*10^-10A

Diameter, D = 2.5mm

n = 8.49*10^28

The equation for current density and speed drift is

J = I/A = (ne) Vd

A = πD²/4

A = π*0.0025²/4

A = π*6.25*10^-6/4

A = 4.9*10^-6

Now,

J = I/A

J = 3.8*10^-10/4.9*10^-6

J = 7.76*10^-5

Electron drift speed is

J = (ne) Vd

Vd = J/(ne)

Vd = 7.76*10^-5/(8.49*10^28)*(1.60*10^-19)

Vd = 7.76*10^-5/1.3584*10^10

Vd = 5.71*10^-15

Therefore, the current density and speed drift are 4.9*10^-6

And 5.71*10^-15 respectively

The truck in which
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

m = 4

Explanation:

We have,

You apply a force of  600 N to the branch  which acts as a lever. It means it is input force, IF = 600 N

The rear of the truck  weighs 2,400 N. It means it is output force, OF = 2400 N

The ratio of output force to the input force is equal to the mechanical advantage of the lever arm. It is given by :

m=\dfrac{2400}{600}\\\\m=4

So, the mechanical  gain of the lever arm is 4.

Three collinear forces,F1=45N west,F2=63N east and an unknown force F3 are applied to an object.The resultant force of the three
Greeley [361]

Take east to be the positive direction. Then the resultant force from adding <em>F</em>₁ and <em>F</em>₂ is

<em>F</em>₁ + <em>F</em>₂ = (-45 N) + 63 N = 18 N

which is positive, so it's directed east.

To this we add a third force <em>F</em>₃ such that the resultant is 12 N pointing west, making it negative, so that

18 N + <em>F</em>₃ = -12 N

<em>F</em>₃ = -30 N

So <em>F</em>₃ has a magnitude of 30 N and points west.

When objects are heated they tend to expand because
densk [106]
Hello!
===
When objects are heated, their molecules tend to vibrate fast. As they vibrate, the space between each atom increases. This keeps on happening, and the object expands until it has cooled down.

Hope this helps! :)
