A copper wire of 1-m length and 1-mm radius has a resistance of 5.5 × 10 − 3 [Ω] and carries a current of 4 [A]. The number of f

ree electrons per unit volume in copper is 8.43 × 10 28 [m − 3 ]. Find (a) the current density, (b) the conductivity of the copper, (c) the power dissipated in the wire, (d) the (average) drift velocity of free electrons, and (e) the mobility of free electrons.

Answer: a)1.27 *10^6 A/m^2; b) 57.9*10^6 Ω*m; c) 94.16*10^-6 m/s;

d) 4.29*10^-3 m^2/V*s

Explanation: In order to explain this problem we have to take into account the following expressions:

The current density is equal:

J=I/A  where A is the area of the wire.

J=4A/(π*1*10^-6m^2)=1.27 *10^6 A/m^2

The resistence of the wire is given by:

R=L/(σ*A) where σ and L are the conductivity and the length of the wire, respectively.

Then we have:

σ= L/(R*A)=1/(5.5*10^-3*π*1*10^-6)=57.9 *10^6 Ω*m

The drift velocity of free electrons is given by:

Vd=i/(n*A*e) where n is the numer of electrons per volume. e is the electron charge.

then we have:

Vd=J/(n*e)= 1.27 *10^6/(8.43*10^28*1.6*10^-19)=94.16 *10^-6 m/s

Finally, the mobility of free electrons is equal to:

μ=Vd/E  ;  E=J/σ

μ=E*σ/J= 94.16*10^-6*57.9 *10^6/1.27 *10^6=4.29*10^-3 m^2/V*s

A. attract each other.

The Law of Universal Gravitation discusses the phenomenon of gravity. Remember that gravity is the force that keeps us on Earth; the Earth pulls us down, and our bodies pull back.  Gravity is the force of attraction, so the correct answer is a).

Radar uses radio waves of a wavelength of 2.9 m . The time interval for one radiation pulse is 100 times larger than the time of
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

145 m

Explanation:

Given:

Wavelength (λ) = 2.9 m  

we know,

c = f × λ  

where,

c = speed of light ; 3.0 x 10⁸ m/s

f = frequency  

thus,

f=\frac{c}{\lambda}

substituting the values in the equation we get,

f=\frac{3.0\times 10^8 m/s}{2.9m}

f = 1.03 x 10⁸Hz  

Now,

The time period (T) = \frac{1}{f}

or

T =  \frac{1}{1.03\times 10^8}  = 9.6 x 10⁻⁹ seconds  

thus,

the time interval of one pulse = 100T = 9.6 x 10⁻⁷ s  

Time between pulses = (100T×10) = 9.6 x 10⁻⁶ s  

Now,

For radar to detect the object the pulse must hit the object and come back to the detector.

Hence, the shortest distance will be half the distance travelled by the pulse back and forth.

Distance = speed × time = 3 x 10^8 m/s × 9.6 x 10⁻⁷ s) = 290 m {Back and forth}  

Thus, the minimum distance to target = \frac{290}{2} = 145 m
