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 powerful motorcycle can produce an acceleration of 3.50 m/s2 while traveling at 90.0 km/h. At that speed the forces resisting
IrinaK [193]

Answer:1265 N

Explanation:

Given

acceleration of motorcycle \left ( a\right )=3.5 m/s^2

Velocity \left ( v\right )=90 km/h\approx 25m/s

Air friction and Friction\left ( f\right )=425 N

mass of the motorcycle with rider\left ( m\right )=240 Kg

Applying Forces on motorcycle

F_{engine}-f=ma

F_{engine}=f+ma

F_{engine}=425+240\left ( 3.5\right )

F_{engine}=425+840=1265 N

The air in a room has a pressure of 1 atm, a dry-bulb temperature of 24°C, and a wet-bulb temperature of 17°C. Using the psychro
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

Given that

Dry-bulb temperature(T) =24°C

Wet-bulb temperature(Tw) = 17°C

Pressure ,P = 1 atm

As we know that  psychrometric chart are drawn at constant pressure.

From the diagram

ω= specific humidity

Lets take these two lines   Dry-bulb temperature(T) line and Wet-bulb temperature(Tw) cut at point P

From chart at point P

a)

Specific humidity,ω = 0.00922 kg/kg

b)

The enthalpy ( h)

h=47.59 KJ/kg

c)

The relative humidity, RH

RH= 49.58 %

d)

Specific volume ,

v= 0.853 m³/kg
