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}

A student has a displacement of 739 m north in 162 s. What was the student’s average velocity?A. 0.22 m/sB. 119,718 m/sC. 162 m/
user100 [1]

Answer:

answer below

Explanation:

Displacement of the student is 739 m due North and it takes 162 s.

We need to find the student's average velocity. Using formula of velocity.

Velocity = displacement/time

v= 739/162

v= 4.56

On a highway, a car is driven 80. kilometers
nydimaria [60]

The average speed of the car for the entire trip can be calculate by using:

v=\frac{S}{t}

where S is the total distance covered by the car, and t is the total time taken.


The total distance travelled by the car is:

S=80 km+50 km+40 km=170 km

while the total time taken is:

t=1.00 h+0.50 h+0.50 h=2.00 h


so, the average speed of the car is:

v=\frac{S}{t}=\frac{170 km}{2.00 h}=85 km/h


so, the correct answer is (3) 85 km/h.
