What current flows through a 2.62 cm diameter rod of pure silicon that is 23.5 cm long, when 1000 v is applied to it? (such a ro

d may be used to make nuclear particle detectors, for example.) the resistivity of pure silicon is 2.30 103 ω · m?

Resistivity = resistance * Area / Length
resistance = ??
rho = 2.30 * 10^3 ohms meters.
l = 23.5 cm = 0.235 meters.
diameter = 2.62 cm = 0.0262 m
Radius = diameter / 2 = 0.0131 m
Area = pi r^2 where pi = 3.14
Area = 3.14 * 0.0131^2 = 0.000539 m^2

2.30 * 10^3 = R * 0.000539 /0.235
2.30 * 10^3 * 0.235/0.000539 = R
R = 1002783 which is about 1 meg ohm, but I'll use the calculation here.

E = 1000 V
R = 1 002 783 ohms
I = ???

E = I * R
1000 = I * 1002783 We should really round that resistor to 1 megohm or 1 * 10^6 ohms.

I = 1*10^3 / 1 * 10^6
I = 1 * 10^-3 amp = 1 milliamp. Pretty reasonable all things considered.

A car that is standing still accelerates up a hill with a slope of 6.4% at an average acceleration of 2.93 ft/s^2. The hill is 1
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

213 s

Explanation:

Slope is the ratio of change in vertical distance to change in horizontal distance.

Slope = vertical height / horizontal height

Therefore:

6.4% = vertical height / 12.42

vertical height = 6.4% * 12.42

vertical height = 0.8 miles

The distance travelled by the car (s) is:

s² = 0.8² + 12.42²

s² = 154.9

s = 12.45 miles

Acceleration (a) =  2.93 ft/s^2 = 0.00055 mile/s²

initial velocity (u) = 0, final velocity = 203 mph

Using:

s = ut + 0.5at²

12.45 = 0.5(0.00055)t²

t =213 s

A box is dropped onto a conveyor belt moving at 3.2 m/s. If the coefficient of friction between the box and the belt is 0.28, ho
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

t = 1.16 s.

Explanation:

Given,

speed of conveyor belt, v = 3.2 m/s

coefficient of friction,f = 0.28

Using newton second law

f = ma

and we also know that frictional force

f = μ N

f = μ m g

equating both the force equation

a = μ g

a = 0.28 x 9.81

a = 2.75 m/s²

Using Kinematic equation

v = u + at

3.2 = 0 + 2.75 x t

t = 1.16 s.

Time taken by the box to move without slipping is 1.16 s.

If you separate vector B into its components. How many components will it have? Those components will be called?
Inessa [10]

The vector B will have two components and those components will be called resultant vectors.

<h3>What is a component vector?</h3>

A component vector is a unit vector that represents a given vector in a particular direction.

A vector can be represented in x - direction and y - direction.

  • x - component of the vector = Bcosθ
  • y - component of the vector = Bsinθ

Thus, the vector B will have two components and those components will be called resultant vectors.

In the z-scheme ____ is the initial electron donor and ____ is the final electron acceptor.
Alenkinab [10]

In the z-scheme, water is the initial electron donor and NADP+ is the final electron acceptor.

<u>Explanation: </u>

It is a process of photosynthesis. It occurs in photosynthetic chemical reaction. The z scheme is basically a term for representing the oxidation and reduction reaction occurring in plants during photosynthesis.

The water present in the chlorophyll pigment donates electrons and become the initial electron donor. Those electrons get transferred to NADP+ and forms NADPH. Thus, water acts as electron donor initially and so the final electron is NADP+.
