Answer:
1.87 A
Explanation:
τ = mean time between collisions for electrons = 2.5 x 10⁻¹⁴ s
d = diameter of copper wire = 2 mm = 2 x 10⁻³ m
Area of cross-section of copper wire is given as
A = (0.25) πd²
A = (0.25) (3.14) (2 x 10⁻³)²
A = 3.14 x 10⁻⁶ m²
E = magnitude of electric field = 0.01 V/m
e = magnitude of charge on electron = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C
m = mass of electron = 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg
n = number density of free electrons in copper = 8.47 x 10²² cm⁻³ = 8.47 x 10²⁸ m⁻³
= magnitude of current
magnitude of current is given as
= 1.87 A
A) Image position: -19.3 cm
B) Image height: 1.5 cm, upright
Explanation:
A)
In order to calculate the image position, we can use the lens equation:
where
p is the distance of the object from the lens
q is the distance of the image from the lens
f is the focal length
In this problem, we have:
p = 13 cm (object distance)
f = 40 cm (focal length, positive for a converging lens)
So the image distance is
The negative sign means that the image is virtual.
B)
In order to calculate the image height, we use the magnification equation:
where
y' is the image height
y is the object height
In this problem, we have:
y = 1.0 cm (object height)
p = 13 cm
q = -19.3 cm
Therefore, the image heigth is
And the positive sign means the image is upright.
