One wire possesses a solid core of copper, with a circular cross-section of radius 3.78 mm. The other wire is composed of 19 str

ands of thin copper wire bundled together. Each strand has a circular cross-section of radius 0.756 mm. The current density J in each wire is the same, J=2950 A/m².
1. How much current does each wire carry?
2. The resistivity of copper is 1.69 x 10⁻⁸ ohm m. What is the resistance of a 1.00 m length of each wire?

Answer:

a) Current in wire 1 = 0.132 A

Current in wire 2 = 0.101 A

b) Resistance of wire 1 = R₁ = 0.000376 Ω = (3.76 × 10⁻⁴) Ω = 0.376 mΩ

Resistance of wire 2 = R₂ = 0.000495 Ω = (4.95 × 10⁻⁴) Ω = 0.495 mΩ

Explanation:

Current density, J = (current) × (cross sectional area)

Current density for both wires = J = 2950 A/m²

For wire 1,

Cross sectional Area = πr² = π(0.00378²)

A₁ = 0.00004491 m²

For wire 2,

With the assumption that the strands are well banded together with no spaces in btw.

Cross sectional Area = 19 × πr² = π(0.000756)²

A₂ = 0.00003413 m²

Current in wire 1 = I₁ = J × A₁ = 2950 × 0.00004491 = 0.132 A

Current in wire 2 = I₂ = J × A₂ = 2950 × 0.00003413 = 0.101 A

b) Resistance = ρL/A

ρ = resistivity for both wires = (1.69 x 10⁻⁸) Ω.m

L = length of wire = 1.00 m for each of the two wires

A₁ = 0.00004491 m²

A₂ = 0.00003413 m²

R₁ = ρL/A₁ = (1.69 x 10⁻⁸ × 1)/0.00004491

R₁ = 0.000376 Ω = (3.76 × 10⁻⁴) Ω = 0.376 mΩ

R₂ = ρL/A₂ = (1.69 x 10⁻⁸ × 1)/0.00003413

R₂ = 0.000495 Ω = (4.95 × 10⁻⁴) Ω = 0.495 mΩ

Hope this helps!!

Calculate the magnitude of the linear momentum for the following cases. (a) a proton with mass 1.67 10-27 kg, moving with a spee
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

<h2>8.0995×10^-21 kgms^-1</h2>

Explanation:

Mass of proton :

m_P=1.67\times 10^-^2^7\:kg\\

Speed of Proton:

v_P=4.85\times 10^6

Linear Momentum of a particle having mass (m) and velocity (v) :

-> p =m->v\:\:\: (1)

Magnitude of momentum :

p=mv\:\:\: (2)

Frome equation (2), magnitude of linear momentum of the proton :

p_P=m_P\:v_P\\\\p_P=1.67\times 10^-^2^7 \:kg\times4.85\times 10^6\:ms^-^1\\\\p_P= 8.0995\times 10^-^2^1\:kgms^-^1

During heavy rain, a section of a mountainside measuring 2.5 km horizontally, 0.80 km up along the slope, and 2.0 m deep slips i
Crank

Answer:

The mass of the mud is 3040000 kg.

Explanation:

Given that,

length = 2.5 km

Width = 0.80 km

Height = 2.0 m

Length of valley = 0.40 km

Width of valley = 0.40 km

Density = 1900 Kg/m³

Area = 4.0 m²

We need to calculate the mass of the mud

Using formula of density

\rho=\dfrac{m}{V}

m=\rho\times V

Where, V = volume of mud

\rho = density of mud

Put the value into the formula

m=1900\times4.0\times0.40\times10^{3}

m =3040000\ kg

Hence, The mass of the mud is 3040000 kg.
