Do the conduction electrons in a copper wire act quantum mechanically or not? Roughly speaking, quantum mechanics comes in when

the de Broglie wavelength of an electron is comparable to or longer than the spacing between atoms. The lattice constant (roughly the spacing between atoms in a crystal) for copper is about 4 x 10-10 m. The drift velocity of electrons is typically less than 102 m/s under household conditions (b) What about atoms in the interstellar medium? Here we want to compare the average spacing between atoms (they move!) to the de Broglie wavelength of an atom. The interstellar medium is mostly hydrogen at an average density of order 1/cm3 and temperature about 3 K. In this case you' need the thermody- namic resul p/(2m)(3/2)kT, where k is Boltzmann's constant (c) Now let's switch gears to talk abou the Uncertainty Principle When LIGO detects gravitational waves, it is measuring displacements of its test masses of order 10-18 m. The test masses are about 40 kg. What is the minimum uncertainty induced in the velocities of the test masses?

Two ice skaters, Lilly and John, face each other while at rest, and then push against each other's hands. The mass of John is tw
seropon [69]

Answer:

Lilly's speed is two times John's speed.

Explanation:

m = Mass

a = Acceleration

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

The force they apply on each other will be equal

F=ma\\\Rightarrow a_l=\frac{F}{m_l}

F=ma\\\Rightarrow a_j=\frac{F}{2m_l}\\\Rightarrow a_j=\frac{1}{2}a_l

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v_l=0+\frac{F}{m_l}\times t\\\Rightarrow v_l=a_lt

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v_l=0+\frac{F}{2m_l}\times t\\\Rightarrow v_j=\frac{1}{2}a_lt\\\Rightarrow v_j=\frac{1}{2}v_l\\\Rightarrow v_l=2v_j

Hence, Lilly's speed is two times John's speed.

Technician A says that the cooling system should be tested for leaks using a pressure-operated pressure pump. Technician B says
mart [117]

Answer:

The correct option is;

Technician A only

Explanation:

Leaks in the cooling system parts such as the radiator cap can be tested with a pressure operated hand pump by attaching the pump cap to the pump with an adaptor and apply pressure enough for there to be a release of pressure at the cap.

The pressure added to the system should be maintained for up to two minutes. If the pressure drops quicker, then there is likely to be leaks in the system

The freezing and boiling point of the coolant is measured with an antifreeze tester which carries the appropriate apparatus to measure the coolants freezing and boiling points.

Which of the following brain imaging techniques produce the most detailed picture of brain structure? (2 points)
Inga [223]

Answer:

MRI

Explanation:

Magnetic Resonance Imaging, furnishes the most detailed picture of brain structure. MRI produces the most point by point picture of the cerebrum. MRI examines by using attractive fields and radio waves to create PC produced pictures that recognize the structures inside the mind. It gives the most point by point and a detailed image of the brain structure.
