Q1. In electronic circuits it is not unusual to encounter currents in the microampere range. Assume a 35 μA current, due to the

flow of electrons. What is the average number of electrons per second that flow past a fixed reference cross section that is perpendicular to the direction of flow? (5 Points)

Answer:

2.9*10^14 electrons

Explanation:

An Ampere is the flow of one Coulomb per second, so 35 μA = is 35*10^-6 C per second.

An electron has a charge of 1.6*10^-19 C.

35*10^-6 / 1.6*10^-19 = 2.9*10^14 electrons

So, with a current o 35 μA you have an aevrage of 2.9*10^14 electrons flowing past a fixed reference cross section perpendicular to the direction of flow.

It is given thatopen parenthesis, x minus 2y, close parenthesis, times open parenthesis, x + 2y, close parenthesis, = 4Quantity
aksik [14]

Answer:

  Quantity B is greater.

Explanation:

<u>Given</u>:

  (x -2y)(x +2y) = 4

  A = x² -4y²

  B = 8

<u>Find</u>:

  the relationship between A and B

<u>Solution</u>:

The given expression can be expanded to give ...

  x(x +2y) -2y(x +2y) = x² +2xy -2xy -4y² = x² -4y²

This is precisely the expression designated as A. Its value is 4.

  4 < 8

  A < B

Quantity B is greater.

‏What is the potential energy in joules of a 12 kg ( mass ) at 25 m above a datum plane ?
Virty [35]

Answer:

E = 2940 J

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass, m = 12 kg

Position at which the object is placed, h = 25 m

We need to find the potential energy of the mass. It is given by the formula as follows :

E = mgh

g is acceleration due to gravity

E=12\times 9.8\times 25\\\\E=2940\ J

So, the potential energy of the mass is 2940 J.

What are the nominal dimensions for a 1x2 stick of lumber, a 2x4 stick of lumber and a standard sheet of plywood?
zlopas [31]
3/4 x 1 1/2 inches (19 x 38 mm) is the actual size for 1x2 stick of lumber,

1 1/2 x 3 1/2 inches (38 x 89 mm) is the actually size for a 2x4 stick of lumber,

Plywood is usually sold in 4 x 8-foot sheets. The most common nominal thicknesses of plywood are 1/2 inch and 3/4 inch, but once again the actual sizes are slightly different. A sheet of 1/2-inch plywood is really 15/32 inch thick, while a 3/4-inch sheet is 23/32 inch thick.

Hopefully this answers your question, I apologize if it doesn’t :)
