Complete Question

A 10 gauge copper wire carries a current of 20 A. Assuming one free electron per copper atom, calculate the drift velocity of the electrons. (The cross-sectional area of a 10-gauge wire is 5.261 mm2.) mm/s

Answer:

The drift velocity is $v = 0.0002808 \ m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The current on the copper is $I = 20 \ A$

The cross-sectional area is $A = 5.261 \ mm^2 = 5.261 *10^{-6} \ m^2$

The number of copper atom in the wire is mathematically evaluated

$n = \frac{\rho * N_a}Z}$

Where $\rho$ is the density of copper with a value $\rho = 8.93 \ g/m^3$

$N_a$ is the Avogadro's number with a value $N_a = 6.02 *10^{23}\ atom/mol$

Z is the molar mass of copper with a value $Z = 63.55 \ g/mol$

So

$n = \frac{8.93 * 6.02 *10^{23}}{63.55}$

$n = 8.46 * 10^{28} \ atoms /m^3$

Given the 1 atom is equivalent to 1 free electron then the number of free electron is

$N = 8.46 * 10^{28} \ electrons$

The current through the wire is mathematically represented as

$I = N * e * v * A$

substituting values

$20 = 8.46 *10^{28} * (1.60*10^{-19}) * v * 5.261 *10^{-6}$

=> $v = 0.0002808 \ m/s$

A 2000 kg car accelerates from 0 to 25 m / s in 21.0 s. How much is the average power delivered by the motor? (1 hp = 746 W)

mash [69]

Answer: 40.2 hp

Explanation:

The mass of the car is 2000kg.

in 21 seconds, it accelerates from 0m/s to 25m/s, so the average acceleration is:

a = (25m/s)/(21s) = 1.2 m/s^2

We know that force = mass*acceleration, then:

F = 2000kg*1.2m/s^2 = 2400N.

Now, the Power can be written as:

P = W/t where W is work = F*d (force per distance) and t is time.

then we have:

P = (F*d)/t and d/t is the average velocity, and we know the velocity v = 25m/s, so the average velocity will be (1/2)*25m/s = 12.5m/s

P = F*12.5m/s

and the force is F = 2400N

P = 2400 N*12.5m/s = 30,000 W

and we know that 1hp = 746 W

then, P = (30,000/746) hp = 40.2 hp
