Explanation:

In an atom number of electrons and protons are equal. it is an electrically neutral specie.

In an ion, the number of electrons and protons are not equal. There are two types of an ion :

  1. Cation: When the number of protons are greater than number of electrons. These ions have a positive charge.
  2. Anion : When the number of electrons are greater than number of protons. These ions have a negative charge.

Hence, if an atom is considered as an ion, then it will have an unequal number of protons and electrons.

An aluminum wire having a cross-sectional area equal to 3.90 10-6 m2 carries a current of 6.00 A. The density of aluminum is 2.7
stich3 [128]

Answer:

Vd = 1.597 ×10⁻⁴ m/s

Explanation:

Given: A = 3.90×10⁻⁶ m², I = 6.00 A, ρ = 2.70 g/cm³

To find:

Drift Velocity Vd=?

Solution:

the formula is Vd = I/nqA         (n is the number of charge per unit volume)

n = No. of electron in a mole ( Avogadro's No.) / Volume

Volume = Molar mass / density   ( molar mass of Al =27 g)

V = 27 g / 2.70 g/cm³ = 10 cm³ = 1 × 10 ⁻⁵ m³

n= (6.02 × 10 ²³) / (1 × 10 ⁻⁵ m³)

n= 6.02 × 10 ²⁸

Now

Vd = (6A) / (  6.02 × 10 ²⁸ ×  1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C ×  3.9×10⁻⁶ m²)

Vd = 1.597 ×10⁻⁴ m/s

0.10-kilogram model rocket’s engine is designed to deliver an impulse of 6.0 newton-seconds. If the rocket engine burns for 0.75
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

8.0 N

Explanation:

Force: This can be defined as the mass of a body and its acceleration. The S.I unit of Force is Newton (N).

Mathematically, Fore is expressed as

F = ma ........................... equation 1

Where F = force, m = mass, a = acceleration.

and

I = mΔv

Δv = I/m ............................ Equation 2

Where I = impulse, m = mass, Δv = change in velocity

Given: I = 6.0 Newton-seconds, m = 0.1 kilogram.

Substituting into equation 2

Δv = 6.0/0.1

Δv = 60 m/s.

But

a = Δv/t

where t = time = 0.75 seconds.

a = 60/0.75

a = 80 m/s²

Substitute the values of a and m into equation 1.

F = 0.1(80)

F = 8.0 N.

Thus the average force produced = 8.0 N
