Answer:

Vd = 1.597 ×10⁻⁴ m/s

Explanation:

Given: A = 3.90×10⁻⁶ m², I = 6.00 A, ρ = 2.70 g/cm³

To find:

Drift Velocity Vd=?

Solution:

the formula is Vd = I/nqA         (n is the number of charge per unit volume)

n = No. of electron in a mole ( Avogadro's No.) / Volume

Volume = Molar mass / density   ( molar mass of Al =27 g)

V = 27 g / 2.70 g/cm³ = 10 cm³ = 1 × 10 ⁻⁵ m³

n= (6.02 × 10 ²³) / (1 × 10 ⁻⁵ m³)

n= 6.02 × 10 ²⁸

Now

Vd = (6A) / (  6.02 × 10 ²⁸ ×  1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C ×  3.9×10⁻⁶ m²)

Vd = 1.597 ×10⁻⁴ m/s

Which wavelength would scientists use to measure the molecular structure of H2O?
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

To find out what water is made of, it helps to look at its chemical formula, which is H2O. This basically tells us that the water molecule is composed of two elements: hydrogen and oxygen or, more precisely, two hydrogen atoms (H2) and one oxygen atom (O).

a light ray traveling in air enters a second medium and its speed slows to 1.71 × 10^8 meters per second. what is the absolute i
givi [52]
The absolute refractive index is equal to the speed of light of the wave in air divided by the speed of light in the second medium. This means that it is equal to 3 x10^8 / 1.71 x10^8. This means the answer is 1.75
