How is the temperature of a gas related to the kinetic energy of its particles

1 answer:

7 0

The average kinetic energy of a gas particle is directly proportional to the temperature. An increase in temperature increases the speed in which the gas molecules move. All gases at a given temperature have the same average kinetic energy. Lighter gas molecules move faster than heavier molecules.

A 6.00 A current runs through a 12-gauge copper wire (diameter 2.05 mm) and through a light bulb. Copper has 8.5×1028 free elect

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Current, I = 6 A

diameter of wire, d = 2.05 mm

number of electrons per unit volume, n = 8.5 x 10^28

If the diameter is doubled,

The resistance of the wire is inversely proportional to the square of the diameter of the wire, so the resistance is one forth an the current is directly proportional to the diameter of the wire so the current is four times the initial value.
