Answer:

Its duration is 1.85*10⁻³ s or 1.85 ms

Explanation:

The intensity of electric current I is defined as the amount of electric charge Q (measured in Coulombs) that passes through a section of a conductor in each unit of time. The letter I is used to name the Intensity and its unit is the Ampere (A).

The intensity of electric current is expressed as:

I=\frac{Q}{t}

where:

I: Intensity expressed in Amps (A)

Q: Electric charge expressed in Coulombs (C)

t: Time expressed in seconds (s)

Being:

  • I= 19500 A
  • Q=36 C
  • t=?

Replacing:

19500 A=\frac{36 C}{t}

Solving:

19500 A*t= 36 C

t=\frac{36 C}{19500 A}

t= 1.85*10⁻³ s= 1.85 ms (being 1 s= 1,000 ms)

<u><em>Its duration is 1.85*10⁻³ s or 1.85 ms</em></u>

The mass of a coin is measured to be 12.5±0.1 g. The diameter is 2.8±0.1 cm and the thickness 2.1 ±0.1 mm. Calculate the average
Evgesh-ka [11]

The average density of the material from which the coin is made is 9.67 g/cm³.

<h3>Volume of the coin</h3>

The volume of the coin at the given diameter is calculated as follows;

V = Ah

where;

  • A is area of the coin
  • h is the thickness of the coin

V = πd²/4 x h

V = π(2.8)²/4  x (0.21 cm)

V = 1.293 cm³

<h3>average density of the coin</h3>

The average density of the material from which the coin is made is calculated as follows;

density = mass/volume

density = 12.5 g / (1.293 cm³)

density = 9.67 g/cm³

Thus, the average density of the material from which the coin is made is 9.67 g/cm³.
