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?

Answer:

18 ohms

Explanation:

V = I(R1 + R2)

5V = (0.167A)(12 ohms + R2)

Solving for R2

R2 = 18 ohms

# 5 what will most likely happen when an air mas of low temperature exists above a water body at a higher temperature?
laila [671]
Answer: Heat will transfer from the water to the air. When a mass of air moves on a warmer surface it is heated by its base. Then thermal instability develops in the lower layers and then extends upwards. If the air initially contained inversions, these are destroyed and a strong gradient is established uniformly in the lower troposphere temperature.

The lamp has a resistance of 10 ohms each resistor has a resistance of 10 ohms what is the total resistance of the circuit
prisoha [69]
Mark Brainliest please

Answer : if connected series, 20 ohms
And if connected parallel, answer will be less than 20 ohms

When resistors are wired in series, the total circuit resistance increases because each resistor contributes opposition to the circuit's current flow. Therefore if a 10 ohm resistor is placed in series with another 10 ohm resistor, the total resistance contributed by the two resistors is 20 ohms.
