Two homogeneous bodies of the same volume
lord [1]

Answer:

No, it is not necessary for them to have same mass.

Explanation:

Let both bodies have a density d1 and d2 respectively.

Since their volumes are equal V1 = V2

we know that, https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7Bmass%7D%7Bvolume%7D

Hence, d1 =  and d2 =    

Taking the ratio of densities,we get

This implies that unless the bodies have same densities, the mass of the two bodies will not be same.

The interference of two sound waves of slightly different frequencies produces
Leviafan [203]
Beats.

When two sound waves of different frequency approach your ear, the alternating constructive and destructive interference causes the sound to be alternatively soft and loud - a phenomenon which is called "beating" or producing beats. The beat frequency is equal to the absolute value of the difference in frequency of the two waves.

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:4-strikes the plane at same time as the other body

Explanation:

Given

If both bodies is falling on a horizontal plane and second body is given an acceleration in horizontal direction then it does not change the time to reach the Horizontal Plate as there is no change in vertical direction.

Horizontal acceleration will give only horizontal range and horizontal velocity.

An iron wire has a cross-sectional area equal to 5.00×10⁻⁶ m² . Carry out the following steps to determine the drift speed of th
Doss [256]
  1. In mass, there are 55.85 × 10⁻³ kg/mol in in 1 mole of iron.
  2. The molar density of iron is equal to 1.41 × 10⁵ mol/m³.
  3. The density of iron atoms is equal to 8.49 × 10²⁸ atoms/m³.
  4. The number density of conduction electrons is equal to 1.70 × 10²⁹ conduction electrons/m³.
  5. The drift speed of conduction electrons is equal to 2.21 × 10⁻⁴ m/s.

<h3>How to calculate the drift speed of the conduction electrons?</h3>

Mathematically, the drift speed of the conduction electrons can be calculated by using this formula:

V = (m × σ × V)/ρ × e × f × l)

V = I/(n × A × Q)

Where:

  • U represents the drift speed of the conduction electrons, in m/s.
  • m represents the molecular mass of the metal, in kg.
  • e represents the elementary charge, in C.
  • f represents the number of free electrons per atom.
  • σ represents the electric conductivity of the medium at a particular temperature in S/m.
  • ρ represents the density of the conductor, in kg/m³.
  • ℓ represents the length of the conductor, in m.
  • ΔV represents the voltage applied or potential difference across the conductor in V.

<h3>How many kilograms are there in 1 mole of iron? </h3>

Molar mass of iron = 55.85 g/mol.

In Kilograms, we have:

Mass = 55.85 × 1/1000

Mass = 55.85 × 10⁻³ kg/mol.

For the molar density of iron, we have:

Molar density = density/molar mass

Molar density = 7874/0.056

Molar density = 1.41 × 10⁵ mol/m³.

For the density of iron atoms, we have:

Density of iron atoms = Avogadro's constant × molar density

Density of iron atoms = 6.023 × 10²³ × 1.406 × 10⁵

Density of iron atoms = 8.49 × 10²⁸ atoms/m³.

For the number density of conduction electrons, we have:

Fe ---> Fe²⁺ + 2e⁻

Number density of conduction electrons = 2 conduction electrons/1 atom of iron

Number density of conduction electrons = 2 × 8.49 × 10²⁸

Number density of conduction electrons = 1.70 × 10²⁹ conduction electrons/m³.

For the drift speed of conduction electrons, we have:

V = I/(n × A × Q)

V = 30/(1.70 × 10²⁹ × 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ × 5 × 10⁻⁶)

Drift speed, V = 2.21 × 10⁻⁴ m/s.
