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 particle of unit mass moves in a potential V(x)= ax^2+b/x^2 . Where a and b are constnts. Calcuate the angular frequency of sm
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Potential Energy is given by

U(x)=ax^2+\frac{b}{x^2}

And Force is given by

F=-\frac{\mathrm{d} U}{\mathrm{d} x}

Particle will be at equilibrium when Potential Energy is either minimum or maximum

F=-\left ( 2ax-\frac{2b}{x^3}\right )

i.e.ax=\frac{b}{x^3}

x_0=(\frac{b}{a})^{0.25}

So angular Frequency of small oscillation is given by

\omega =\sqrt{\frac{U''(x)}{m}}

for m=1

we get    \omega =\sqrt{\frac{U''(x_0)}{1}}

U''(x_0)=2a+6a= 8a

\omega =\sqrt{8a}

Mila [183]

By using an electric field, it is feasible to differentiate between these different forms of radiation.

<h3>What is a radioactive source?</h3>

A source that emits radiation like gamma, beta, and alpha rays is said to be radioactive. Using an electric field, we can discriminate between these different forms of radiation.

The field does not deflate the gamma rays, but it does deflate the alpha and beta rays, with the alpha being deflated to the field's negative portion and the beta to its positive part.

Hence, by using an electric field, it is feasible to differentiate between these different forms of radiation.

To learn more about the radioactive source refer;
