You are walking on a beach and find a mystery piece of metal. You take it back to your lab and measure its mass to be 0.5 kg. In
1 answer:
D) Silver
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of metal = 0.5kg
temperature change = 1K
Quantity of heat = 115J
Unknown;
Identity of the metal = ?
Solution:
We first find the specific heat of the unknown metal and compare with the table of specific heat of metals.
C =
C = = 230JKg⁻¹K⁻¹
Comparing this value with the table shows that the metal is silver.

Answer:
a)n= 3.125 x electrons.
b)J= 1.515 x A/m²
c) =1.114 x
m/s
d) see explanation
Explanation:
Current 'I' = 5A =>5C/s
diameter 'd'= 2.05 x m
radius 'r' = d/2 => 1.025 x m
no. of electrons 'n'= 8.5 x
a) the amount of electrons pass through the light bulb each second can be determined by:
I= Q/t
Q= I x t => 5 x 1
Q= 5C
As we know that: Q= ne
where e is the charge of electron i.e 1.6 x C
n= Q/e => 5/ 1.6 x
n= 3.125 x electrons.
b) the current density 'J' in the wire is given by
J= I/A => I/πr²
J= 5 / (3.14 x (1.025x )²)
J= 1.515 x A/m²
c) The typical speed'' of an electron is given by:
=
=1.515 x / 8.5 x
x |-1.6 x
|
=1.114 x
m/s
d) According to these equations,
J= I/A
=
=
If you were to use wire of twice the diameter, the current density and drift speed will change
Increase in the diameter increase the cross sectional area and decreases the current density as it has inverse relation.
Also drift velocity will decrease as it is inversely proportional to the area
The fact that the layers of graphite are held together by only weak Van der Walls forces implies that they can slide over each other.
<h3>Why is graphite a solid lubricant?</h3>We know that graphite is composed of layers. These hexagonal layers are held together by weak Van Der Walls forces and as such are able to slide over each other. The carbon atom in each layer are held together by strong covalent bonds.
The fact that the layers of graphite are held together by only weak Van der Walls forces implies that they can slide over each other and as such make the graphite fluid.
Thus, the image that shows these layers of graphite is attached to this an answer
