The diameter of a 12-gauge copper wire is 0.081 in. The maximum safe current it can carry (in order to prevent fire danger in bu

ilding construction) is 20 A. At this current, what is the drift velocity of the electrons? The number of electron carriers in 1.0 cm3 of copper is 8.5 × 1022 and e = 1.60 × 10-19 C.

Answer:

Explanation:

v = I / (n q A)

where A is the cross sectional area (you are given diameter, so A = (pi/4) * d^2), n is the number of charge carriers in a volume, and q is the charge of each carrier (-1.60x10^-19). I is the current, in Amps.  

You will need to either convert your diameter from inches to centimeters or you will need to convert your volume in cc to cubic inches. I'd convert diameter.

Springfield's "classic rock" radio station broadcasts at a frequency of 102.1 mhz. what is the length of the radio wave in meter
Mila [183]
The frequency of the radio wave is:
f=102.1 MHz = 102.1 \cdot 10^6 Hz

The wavelength of an electromagnetic wave is related to its frequency by the relationship
\lambda= \frac{c}{f}
where c is the speed of light and f the frequency. Plugging numbers into the equation, we find
\lambda= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{102.1 \cdot 10^6 Hz}= 2.94 m
and this is the wavelength of the radio waves in the problem.

A wire with radius 23 cm has a current of 7 A which is distributed uniformly through its cross sectional area. If you were to us
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

The magnetic induction of the magnetic field is  0.0005293 mT

Explanation:

Data given

I = 7 A = the total current in the wire

r = 23 cm = the radius of the wire = 0.23 meter

r' = 2cm = the measurement point, which should be inside the wire = 0.02 meter

Let's consider the current density is constant in the wire, ⇒  the current enclosed is a function of the enclosed area

I(enclosed) = Jπ r ²

we can  consider the current density  as the total current over the whole area:

I(enclosed) = I / (πr ²)  * πr' ²

I(enclosed) = (I* r'²)/ (r ²)  

with I =  total current in the wire = 7A

With r = the radius of wire = 0.23 meter

with r' = the distance of point from the center of wire  0.02 meter

We plug this into ampere's law:

∮ *B *dl =μ 0  * (I* r'²)/ (r ²)  

with B = Magnetic flux density (in Tesla) or magnetic induction

with dl = an infinitesimal element (a differential) of the curve C

with µ0 = the magnectic constant =  4π*10^−7 H/m

We can simplify this, by using an Amperian loop can write this as:

B *( 2 π r') =  μ 0  * (I* r'²)/ (r ²)  

Because the circumference of a circle is  2 π r , when we integrate over length at a distance  r ′  from the center of wire whose crossection is a circle we get  2 π r ′

When we isolate B, we get:

B = µo *(Ir'/2 π r ²)

B =  4π*10^−7 * ((7*0.02)/2*π*0.23²)

B =5.293 *10 ^-7 T  = 0.0005293 mT

The magnetic induction of the magnetic field is  0.0005293 mT

Select all of the following that describes momentum, p [mark all correct answers]
Inga [223]

Answer:

c. Momentum is the product of mass and velocity

e. Momentum is a vector quantity

g. Momentum has unit of kgm/s

Explanation:

Linear momentum P

P = m .v

m =mass

v=Velocity

If mass take in kg and velocity is in m/s then momentum p will be in kg.m/s.

1. momentum is the product of velocity and mass.

2.Momentum is a vector quantity.

3.Momentum have kg.m/s unit.

So the following option are correct.

c. Momentum is the product of mass and velocity

e. Momentum is a vector quantity

g. Momentum has unit of kgm/s.

Note-

1.Joule is the unit of energy.

2.One-half the product of mass and the square of the object's speed is known as kinetic energy.

How do you think car makers can design cars to limit cell phone distractions?
Dafna11 [192]

I have two (2) brilliant ideas:

1). Inside the metal that the body of the car is made of, and also between the two sheets of glass that the windows are made of, install a thin layer of material that absorbs RF (radio-wave) energy . . . like the material in the glass window of your microwave oven.  Then, no radio waves from the cellular base station can get INTO the car, and no radio waves from your phone can get OUT of the car.  The phone can't make a connection to the cellular network, you can't make or receive calls, and you can't connect to Instagram or Brainly, so you might as well just turn it off and save your battery until next time you're outside your car.

2). Somewhere inside the car, like under the dash or in the glove box, install a teeny tiny radio receiver that can recognize the signals coming OUT of your phone.  Connect it to the car's electrical system so that when it hears signals from phones inside the car, it it shuts down the car's motor so you can't start or drive. The car only works when phones inside the car are either turned off or in Airplane Mode.

My ideas are so brilliant that I really should patent them, or copyright them, or whatever you do so that other people have to pay you to use your idea. But if you want to use them, that's OK.  Just go ahead. I won't mind.
