This problem uses the relationships among current I, current density J, and drift speed vd. We are given the total of electrons that pass through the wire in t = 3s and the area A, so we use the following equation to to find vd, from J and the known electron density n, so: 

v_{d} =  \frac{J}{n\left | q \right |}

<span>The current I is any motion of charge from one region to another, so this is given by:

</span>I = \frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta t} = \frac{9.4x1018electrons}{3s} = 3189.73(A)

The magnitude of the current density is:

J = \frac{I}{A} = \frac{3189.73}{2x10^{-6}} = 1594.86(A/m^{2})

Being:

A=2mm^{2} = 2x10^{-6}m^{2}
<span>
Finally, for the drift velocity magnitude vd, we find:

</span>v_{d} = \frac{1594.86}{5.8x1028\left |1.60x10^{-19}|\right } = 1.67x10^{18}(m/s)

Notice: The current I is very high for this wire. The given values of the variables are a little bit odd

When a certain string is clamped at both ends, the lowest four resonant frequencies are 50, 100, 150, and 200 Hz. When the strin
mario62 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Lowest four resonance frequencies are given with magnitude

50,100,150 and 200 Hz

The frequency of vibrating string is given by

f=\frac{n}{2L}\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu }}

where n=1,2,3 or ...n

L=Length of string

T=Tension

\mu =Mass per unit length

When string is clamped at mid-point

Effecting length becomes L'=0.5 L

Thus new Frequency becomes

f' =\frac{n}{L}\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu }}

i.e. New frequency is double of old

so new lowest four resonant frequencies are 100,200,300 and 400 Hz

The luxury liner Queen Elizabeth 2 has a diesel-electric powerplant with a maximum power of 90 MW at a cruising speed of 31.5 kn
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

5558643.69 N

Explanation:

F = Force

v = Velocity = 31.5 knots

Converting to m/s

1\ knot=0.514\ m/s

31.5\ knot=31.5\times 0.514\ m/s=16.191\ m/s

Power is given by

P=Fv\\\Rightarrow F=\frac{P}{v}\\\Rightarrow F=\frac{90\times 10^6}{16.191}\\\Rightarrow F=5558643.69\ N

The forward force is exerted on the ship at this highest attainable speed is 5558643.69 N
