Answer:

16.98 minutes

Explanation:

We are given that

Current,I=300 A

Area, A=0.250 square cm=0.250\times 10^{-4} m^2

1 cm^2=10^{-4} m^2

Length of wire,d=0.9 m

Number of charge carriers per unit volume=n=8.49\times 10^{28} m^{-3}

1 e=1.6\times 10^{-19} C

We know that

t=\frac{ne Ad}{I}

Using the formula

t=\frac{8.49\times 10^{28}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.25\times 10^{-4}\times 0.9}{300}

t=1018.8 s=\frac{1018.8}{60}=16.98 minute

Answer:

Explanation:

current, i = 300 A

Area of crossection, A = 0.250 cm² = 0.250 x 10^-4 m²

length, l = 0.9 m

number of electrons per unit volume, n = 8.49 x 10^28 /m³

let v be the drift velocity and t be the time taken by the electrons

i = n e A v

300 = 8.49 x 10^28 x 1.6 x 10^-19 x 0.25 x 10^-4 x v

v = 8.84 x 10^-4 m/s

Time, t = distance / velocity

t = 0.9 / (8.84 x 10^-4)

t = 1018.8 s

t = 17 minutes

Millikan is doing his oil drop experiment. He has a droplet with radius 1.6 µm suspended motionless in a uniform electric field
swat32

Answer:

The charge on the droplet is 3.106\times10^{-16}\ C.

Yes, quantization of charge is obeyed within experimental error.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius = 1.6μm

Electric field = 46 N/C

Density of oil = 0.085 g/cm³

We need to calculate the charge on the droplet

Using formula of force

F= qE

mg=qE

V\times\rho\times g=qE

q=\dfrac{V\times\rho}{E}

q=\dfrac{\dfrac{4}{3}\pi\times r^3\times\rho\times g}{E}

Put the value into the formula

q=\dfrac{\dfrac{4}{3}\times\pi\times(1.6\times10^{-6})^3\times85\times9.8}{46}

q=3.106\times10^{-16}\ C

We need to calculate the quantization of charge

Using formula of quantization

n = \dfrac{q}{e}

Put the value into the formula

n=\dfrac{3.106\times10^{-16}}{1.6\times10^{-19}}

n=1941.25

Yes, quantization of charge is obeyed within experimental error.

Hence, The charge on the droplet is 3.106\times10^{-16}\ C.

Yes, quantization of charge is obeyed within experimental error.

Part 1: Use complete sentences to explain why solar winds occur. Part 2: Give two examples in which solar winds impact Earth.
Troyanec [42]

Part 1

When the solar atmosphere accumulates a lot of magnetic energy to a point that cannot accumulate more, all that magnetic energy is suddenly released, and with it, a lot of radiation. So much, that in fact it covers all of the electromagnetic spectrum; from radio waves to gamma rays. That burst of radiation is called a solar flare. In a single solar flare the amount of radiation released is millions of times greater than all the nuclear bombs in the face if the earth exploding together. Lucky for us, most of the high-energy radiation dissipates before reaching the Earth, and the radiation that do reach us, is deflected by the Earth’s magnetic field.

Part 2

1.  Not all the radiation of solar flares that reach the Earth is deflected by its magnetic field; some of them reach us and charges the upper atmosphere with ionized particles. Those particles react with the gases in the atmosphere and produce a light; that light is what we call Auroras borealis or southern nights; One the most beautiful natural spectacles in earth, who thought Auroras begin their lives as deadly solar flares.

2.  Solar flares contain a lot of high-energy radiation that is extremely dangerous for our electronic devices; when they reach the Earth, they can damage sensible electronics like satellites. A very powerful solar flare could even damage all the electronic devices on the surface of the Earth.

Hello i need help with this question, it’s due today and i need it asap!!
Liula [17]

Answer:

Our bodies digest the food that we eat, and mix it with the fluids (acids and enzymes) in the stomach. Once the stomach had digested the food the carbohydrate (sugars and starches) in the food gets broken down into glucose, another type of sugar.
