Electric field strength = resistivity of copper x current density
where
p= 1.72 x 10^-8 <span>ohm meter
diameter = 2.05mm=.00205 m
current = 2.75 A
</span>get first the current density:
current density = current/ cross section area
find the cross section area
cross section area = pi.(d/2)^2;  
cross section = 3.3 006x10-6 m^2
substitute the values 
current density = 2.75A/3.3006x 10-6m^2
current density=35.55 x1 0^2 A/m^2
Electric field stregnth =1.72 x 10^-8 ohm meter x 35.55 x10^2 A/m^2
Electric field stregnth= 46.415 Volts/m

The electric field strength of copper is 46.415 V/m.

The secondary coil of a neon sign transformer provides 7500 V at 0.01 A. The primary coil operates on 120 V. What is the input c
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

0.625 A

Explanation:

Vs = 7500 V, Is = 0.01 A

Vp = 120 V

Let the primary current be Ip.

As the transformer is ideal, so input power is equal to the output power

Vp x Ip = Vs x Is

120 x Ip = 7500 x 0.01

Ip = 0.625 A

Calculate how much work you need to move a 280 N shed to a platform 5 m above.
castortr0y [4]
Work is done when a motion resulted from the force being done by an object. The amount of work done is calculated by multiplying the force applied and the distance traveled. It is calculated as follows:

Work = Force x distance = 280 N x 5 m  =  1400 J.

An electron in a mercury atom jumps from level a to level g by absorbing a single
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

7.39ev

Explanation:

Energy levels are found inside the atom. Electrons occupy these energy levels depending on the energy they possess. Electrons can move from one energy level to another due to absorption or emission of a photon or other factors. As the electron, jumps from a higher energy level to a lower energy level emitting a photon of measurable frequency, the photon carries energy equal to the amount of energy between the gap of the levels. This idea was first proposed by Neils Bohr and became the forerunner of the wave mechanical model of the atom.

Hence the energy of a photon is the energy of the gap between the two energy levels. Since Ea= 2.48ev and Eg= 10.38 ev.

If an electron jumps from Ea to Eg, the energy of the photon absorbed is given by;

E=Eg-Ea

E= 10.38ev - 2.48ev

E= 7.39ev

What will the reading of the voltmeter be at the instant the switch returns to position a if the inertia of the d'Arsonval movem
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

hello your question is incomplete attached below is the complete question

answer :

20.16 v

Explanation:

The reading of the voltmeter at the instant the switch returns  to position a

L = 5H

i ( current through inductor ) = 1/L ∫ V(t) d(t) + Vo

                                               = 1/5 ∫ 3*10^-3  d(t)  + 0 = 0.6 * 10^-3 t

iL ( 1.6 s ) = 0.6 * 10^-3 * 1.6 = 0.96 mA

Rm ( resistance ) = 21 * 1000 = 21 kΩ

 The reading of the voltmeter ( V )

V = IR

   = 0.96 mA * 21 k Ω  = 20.16 v
