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

Lostsunrise [7]
Relatively hot objects emit visible light.
Some examples: 
==> the wire coils in the toaster; 
==> the spoon that you stuck in the flame on the stove;
==> the fine wire in the lightbulb when current goes through it.

VERY radioactive objects also do that.  But if you're actually
standing there watching an object that's THAT radioactive,
then you're in big trouble.

The path a projectile takes is known as the Question 1 options: vertical component trajectory horizontal component parabola Ques
Firdavs [7]

1. Trajectory

The path a projectile is called a trajectory in physics. It has a vertical component and even makes a parabola, but if we are talking about physics, it is trajectory.

2. A person sitting in a chair

Projectiles can be defined as an object that is in flight. So it has to be in the air. Since a person sitting in a chair is not in flight, then it is NOT a projectile. (Unless you throw the person in the air while he is in the chair)

3. 490 meters

We have the formula and our given:

d = 1/2gt²

Just plug in the values to get your answer:

d = 1/2(-9.8m/s²)(10s)²

d = (-4.9m/s²)(100s²)

d = -490m

So since height is a scalar value, just take out the negative sign.

4. 65 m/s

Again we have our formula and given:

v=\dfrac{d}{t}

So we just plug in our values:

v=\dfrac{650m}{10s}

v=650m/s

5. True

A projectile, if you will notice its trajectory moves both horizontally and vertically. The horizontal motion is what we call the x-component and the vertical is called the y-component. This is what gives it its' curved path.

6. False

An ellipse is an oval-shaped path. A projectile does not move in a circular/oval path. It travels a curved path. It can be parabolic. It is curved but it does not follow a circular path.

7. The vertical component always equals the horizontal component

This is false. Vertical component is different from the horizontal component. The horizontal component is not influenced by gravity only the vertical component. So in short, the horizontal component is the same throughout, but the vertical component changes over time.

8. Constant

Like mentioned above, the horizontal movement is constant or it does not change. This is because a projectile is defined also as an object that is influenced solely by gravity.

9. Vertical velocity decreases

This is because the movement is against the pull of gravity. It will continue to decrease until it will eventually come to a stop and start to descend. As it descends it increases.

10. Vertical velocity increases

I guess explained it above. As the object descends, the vertical movement increases. This is why you can actually die at certain heights. It increases as the time in flight increases. So the longer in flight, the faster it will get.

Unpolarized light with an intensity of 22.4 ????ux passes through a polarizer whose transmission axis is vertically oriented. (a
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

a)      I₁ = 11.2 Lux , vertical direction , b)      I₂ = 1.44 Lux

Explanation:

a) A polarized is a system that absorbs light that is not polarized in the direction of its axis, therefore half of the non-polarized light must be absorbed

consequently the above the processed light has half of the incident intensity and the directional of the polarized

          I₁ = I₀ / 2

          I₁ = 22.4 / 2

          I₁ = 11.2 Lux

is polarized in the vertical direction

b) The polarized light falls on a second polarizer, therefore it must comply with the law of Malus

         I₂ = I₁ cos² θ

         I₂ = 11.2 cos² 69

         I₂ = 1.44 Lux
