The cross section of a copper strip is 1.2 mmthick and 20 mm wide. There is a 25-A current through this cross section, with the

charge carriers traveling down the length of the strip. The strip is placed in a uniform magnetic field that has a magnitude of 2.5 T and is directed perpendicular to both the length and the width of the strip. The number density of free electrons in copperis 8.47 ×1019mm−3. a. Calculate the speed of the electrons in the strip. b. Calculate the potential difference across the strip width.

To solve this problem it is necessary to use the concepts related to the Hall Effect and Drift velocity, that is, at the speed that an electron reaches due to a magnetic field.

The drift velocity is given by the equation:

$V_d = \frac{I}{nAq}$

Where

I = current

n = Number of free electrons

A = Cross-Section Area

q = charge of proton

Our values are given by,

$I = 25 A$

$A= 1.2*20 *10^{-6} m^2$

$q= 1.6*10^{-19}C$

$N = 8.47*10^{19} mm^{-3}$

$V_d =\frac{25}{(1.2*20 *10^{-6})(1.6*10^{-19})(8.47*10^{19} )}$

$V_d = 7.68*10^{-5}m/s$

The hall voltage is given by

$V=\frac{IB}{ned}$

Where

B= Magnetic field

n = number of free electrons

d = distance

e = charge of electron

Then using the formula and replacing,

$V=\frac{(2.5)(25)}{(8.47*10^{28})(1.6*10^{-19})(1.2*10^{-3})}$

$V = 3.84*10^{-6}V$

A uniform line charge of density λ lies on the x axis between x = 0 and x = L. Its total charge is 7 nC. The electric field at x

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

The electric field at x = 3L is 166.67 N/C

Solution:

As per the question:

The uniform line charge density on the x-axis for x, 0< x< L is $\lambda$

Total charge, Q = 7 nC = $7\times 10^{- 9} C$

At x = 2L,

Electric field, $\vec{E_{2L}} = 500N/C$

Coulomb constant, K = $8.99\times 10^{9} N.m^{2}/C^{2}$

Now, we know that:

$\vec{E} = K\frac{Q}{x^{2}}$

Also the line charge density:

$\lambda = \frac{Q}{L}$

Thus

Q = $\lambda L$

Now, for small element:

$d\vec{E} = K\frac{dq}{x^{2}}$

$d\vec{E} = K\frac{\lambda }{x^{2}}dx$

Integrating both the sides from x = L to x = 2L

$\int_{0}^{E}d\vec{E_{2L}} = K\lambda \int_{L}^{2L}\frac{1}{x^{2}}dx$

$\vec{E_{2L}} = K\lambda[\frac{- 1}{x}]_{L}^{2L}] = K\frac{Q}{L}[frac{1}{2L}]$

$\vec{E_{2L}} = (9\times 10^{9})\frac{7\times 10^{- 9}}{L}[frac{1}{2L}] = \frac{63}{L^{2}}$

Similarly,

For the field in between the range 2L< x < 3L:

$\int_{0}^{E}d\vec{E} = K\lambda \int_{2L}^{3L}\frac{1}{x^{2}}dx$

$\vec{E} = K\lambda[\frac{- 1}{x}]_{2L}^{3L}] = K\frac{Q}{L}[frac{1}{6L}]$

$\vec{E} = (9\times 10^{9})\frac{7\times 10^{- 9}}{L}[frac{1}{6L}] = \frac{63}{6L^{2}}$

Now,

If at x = 2L,

$\vec{E_{2L}} = 500 N/C$

Then at x = 3L:

$\frac{\vec{E_{2L}}}{3} = \frac{500}{3} = 166.67 N/C$

What do radio waves carry

iren [92.7K]

The answer is modulation. In modulation a radio wave (also called the "carrier signal") is changed by the signal we want to send to the receiver, for example a song, or, in a wireless network, some data from a computer.
