Answer:

a). 87.5 mA or 87.5 x10^{-3}A

b). 1.78 \frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

d=2.6 mm \\Q=420C\\t=80min\\n=5.8x10^{28} \\q=1.6x10^{-19}

n the number of free electrons is 28 in text reference and if they don't give q is take as the charge of electron.

a).

I=\frac{Q}{t}\\ I= \frac{420 C}{80 min}*\frac{1min}{60 s} =\frac{420 C}{4800s}\\  I=87.5 x10^{-3}A

b).

I=n*abs (q)*V_{d}*A

A= \pi * (\frac{d}{2})^{2} \\A=\pi (*\frac{2.6x10^{-3} m}{2})^{2}  \\A=5.309x10^{-6}

V_{d} =\frac{I}{n*abs(q)*A} \\V_{d}=\frac{87.5 x10^{-2} }{5.8x^10{28} *1.6x^{-19} *5.3x^{6} }\\V_{d}=1.78 \frac{m}{s}

What is the relationship between the size of a predator population and the size of a prey population
Contact [7]
<span>Let's put it this way. Say you have a killer-whale and a penguin. Killer-whales are major predators to penguins. Now, say the killer-whale population increases. The penguins would be eaten more by the killer-whales, then causing a population decrease for the penguins. If the population decreases, they're won't be enough penguins, and they most likely will become extinct, as well as causing a population decrease for the killer-whales as well. Whereas, vis versa, they're were a killer-whale population decrease. The penguins would be less hunted, therefore, creating a population increase for the penguins.</span>

First off, you need to know the weight of the projectile, lift and drag coefficients something like a high Reynolds number is preferred, then use the gravitational constant of 9.8 meters per second squared those would be a good start to get closer to your goal
