A copper wire has a square cross section 2.0 mm on a side. The wire is 5.0 m long and carries a current of 2.0 A. The density of
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

30.22 hours

Explanation:

Given data:

A= l² = (2 x 10^{-3})² = 4 x 10^{-6} m²

Length 'L' = 5m

current 'I' = 2 A

density of free electrons 'n'= 8.5 x 10^{28} /m³

Current Density 'J' = I/ A

J= 2/4 x 10^{-6}

J= 5 x 10^{5} A/m²

We can determine the  time required for an electron to travel the length of the wire by

T= L/ Vd

Where,

L is length and Vd is drift velocity.

Vd can be defined by J/ n|q|

where,

n is the charge-carrier number density

|q| is is the charge carried by each charge carrier =>1.6 x 10^{-19}C

T= L/ Vd

Therefore,

T= L . n|q| / J

T= (4 x 8.5 x 10^{28} x |1.6 x 10^{-19}|)/5 x 10^{5}

T= 108800 seconds =>1813.33 minutes

Converting minute into hours:

T= 30.22 hours

Thus, time that is required for an electron to travel the length of the wire is 30.22 hours

Lc circuit consists of a 20.0 mh inductor and a 0.150 µf capacitor. if the maximum instantaneous current is 0.400 a, what is the
slavikrds [6]
The following expression is applicable:

Max. inductor energy = Max. capacitor energy

Where;
Max. inductor energy = LI^2/2, with L = 20.0 mH, I = 0.400 A
Max. capacitor energy = CV_max^2/2, C = 0.150 micro Faraday, V_max = Max. potential difference

Substituting;
LI^2/2 = CV^2/2
LI^2 = CV^2
V^2 = (LI^2)/C
V_max = Sqrt [(LI^2)/C] = Sqrt [(20*10^-3*0.4^2)/(0.15*10^-6)] = 146.06 V

Aleks [24]

Answer: Average Velocity = - 643.42 i + 512.66 j m/s

Magnitude = 822.7 m/s

Direction = 141.45°

Explanation:

r = 3.84 x 10^8 m

w = 2.46 x 10^-6 rad/s

Formula for Average velocity = displacement / time

at t = 0

x(0) = r

y(0) = 0

at t = 8.45 days

= 8.45 x 24 x 3600 s =730080 sec

w t = 2.46 x 10^-6 x 730080 = 1.80 rad Or 102.90°

xf = r cos(w t) = - 0.2233r

yf = r sin(w t) = 0.9747r

Displacement = (xf - x0)i + (yf - y0)j = -1.2233r i + 0.9747r j

<v> = dispalcement / t = (-1.2233r i + 0.9747r j ) / (730080 s )

= - 643.42 i + 512.66 j m/s

Magnitude

= sqrt(643.42^2 + 512.66^2)

= 822.7 m/s

Direction

= 180 - tan^-1(512.66 / 643.42)

= 141.45°

The Doppler effect using ultrasonic waves of frequency 2.25 × 106 Hz is used to monitor the heartbeat of a fetus. A (maximum) be
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

v = 2.88 \times 10^7 m/s

Explanation:

As per Doppler's effect we know that the frequency of the sound that is observed by the detector is the reflected sound

This reflected sound is given as

f' = f (\frac{v - v_h}{v + v_h})

f' = 2.25\times 10^6(\frac{v - 1540}{v + 1540})

so we know that the beat frequency is

\Delta f = 240 Hz

so we will have

f - f' = \Delta f

2.25 \times 10^6 - 2.25\times 10^6(\frac{v - 1540}{v + 1540}) = 240

1 - (\frac{v - 1540}{v + 1540}) = 1.07 \times 10^{-4}

so we have

0.99989 = (\frac{v - 1540}{v + 1540})

1.99989\times 1540 = 1.067 \times 10^{-4} v

v = 2.88 \times 10^7 m/s
