The current in a wire is defined as the amount of charge that passes a given point of the wire in a given time:
I= \frac{Q}{\Delta t}
where Q is the charge and \Delta t is the time interval.

Since one electron has a charge of q=1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C, the total charge of 2.0 \cdot 10^{13} electrons is
Q=qN=(1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C)(2.0 \cdot 10^{13} )=3.2 \cdot 10^{-6} C

And since the time interval is \Delta t=15 s, the current in the wire is
I= \frac{Q}{\Delta t}= \frac{3.2 \cdot 10^{-6} C}{15 s}=2.1 \cdot 10^{-7}A

Approximately 80% of the energy used by the body must be dissipated thermally. The mechanisms available to eliminate this energy
Semenov [28]

Answer:

the correct answer is c) 23 g

Explanation:

The heat lost by the runner has two parts: the heat absorbed by sweat in evaporation and the heat given off by the body

     Q_lost = - Q_absorbed

     

The latent heat is

      Q_absorbed = m L

The heat given by the body

      Q_lost = M c_{e} ΔT

       

where m is the mass of sweat and M is the mass of the body

       m L = M c_{e} ΔT

        m = M c_{e} ΔT / L

let's replace

        m = 90  3.500  1.8 / 2.42 10⁶

 

        m = 0.2343 kg

reduced to grams

        m = 0.2342 kg (1000g / 1kg)

        m = 23.42 g

 the correct answer is c) 23 g

4. Explain the doppler effect. Be sure to talk about how the wave changes, the perceived change hear by a person that an emitted
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

4) The Doppler effect is the frequency change that occurs in a wave by the relative movement of the emitter and the observer

5) Sound originates from a repetitive movement of air molecules

6) The principle of stable superposition that if the medium complies with the elastic regime, the waves traveling in it can be added

Explanation:

4) The Doppler effect is the frequency change that occurs in a wave by the relative movement of the emitter and the observer. In the specific case of the fixed observer, each wave that is emitted travels at a constant speed, but as the emitter approaches the next wave lLa in less time, so the wave maxima are closer to each other

       v = λ’ f’

        λ‘=λ -Δλ = λ - vs / f

        f’= v / λ’ = v / (λ - vs / f) = v / (v / f - vs / f)

        f ‘= f v / (v-vs)

5) Sound originates from a repetitive movement of air molecules, this movement creates a longitudinal wave, which we call sound. It is characterized by the air volume module and its density

6) The principle of stable superposition that if the medium complies with the elastic regime, the waves traveling in it can be added

             y total = y₁ + y₂

Let's see as an example two waves of the same amplitude that travel in the same direction, if this wave the maximums coincide they add up obtaining that the maximums are twice the amplitude

If the wave goes in the most directive but the maximum of one coincides with the minimum in the other, the sum gives zero,

The wave travels in the opposite direction, in this case the resulting wave in constant in time and we call it resonance
