Answer:

the free electron density of lithium is 2.3 × 10²⁸ /m³

Explanation:

The Fermi energy is 4.72 eV.

The Fermi energy (highest filled orbital energy ) of free electron is

\varepsilon_f=\frac{h^2}{8m_e} (\frac{3N}{\pi V} )^{2/3}

Rearrange the above equation for free electron density of lithium

\frac{N}{V} = \frac{\pi }{3} (\frac{8m_e \varepsilon_f}{h^2} )^{3/2}

where,

h = 6.626 × 10⁻³⁴J.s

m_e = 9.11 × 10⁻³¹kg

\varepsilon_f = 4.72eV

= \frac{\pi }{3} (\frac{8(9.11\times10^{-31})(4.72\times1.6\times10^{-19})}{6.626\times10^{-34}} )\\\\= 2.3\times10^{28} /m^3

Thus, the free electron density of lithium is 2.3 × 10²⁸ /m³

A hollow plastic sphere is held below the surface of a fresh-water lake by a cord anchored to the bottom of the lake. The sphere
Naya [18.7K]

Answer: a) B = 6811N

              b) m = 603.2kg

              c) 86.8%

Explanation: <em>Buoyant force</em> is a force a fluid exerts on a submerged object.

It can be calculated as:

B=\rho_{fluid}.V_{obj}.g

where:

\rho_{fluid} is density of the fluid the object is in;

V_{obj} is volume of the object;

g is acceleration due to gravity, is constant and equals 9.8m/s²

a) For the hollow plastic sphere, density of water is 1000kg/m³:

B=10^{3}.0.695.9.8

B = 6811N

b) Anchored to the bottom, the forces acting on the sphere are <u>Buoyant</u>, <u>Tension</u> and <u>Force due to gravity</u>:

B = T + F_{g}

B = T + mg

mg = B - T

m=\frac{B - T}{g}

Calculating:

m=\frac{6811 - 900}{9.8}

m = 603.2kg

c) When the shpere comes to rest on the surface of the water, there are only <u>buoyant</u> <u>and</u> <u>gravity</u> acting on it:

B = m.g

\rho_{w}.V_{sub}.g=m.g

V_{sub}=\frac{m}{\rho_{w}}

V_{sub}=\frac{603.2}{1000}

V_{sub} = 0.6032m³

Fraction of the submerged volume is:

\frac{V_{sub}}{V_{obj}} = \frac{0.6932}{0.695} = 0.868

Which of the following is the correct relationship among the acceleration, velocity, and position?
Damm [24]

Answer:1

Explanation:

If

s=displacement

v=velocity of particle

a=acceleration of particle

acceleration can be written as rate of change of velocity

so a=\frac{\mathrm{d} v}{\mathrm{d} t}

multiply and divide by ds

a=\frac{\mathrm{d} v}{\mathrm{d} t}\times \frac{ds}{ds}

a=\frac{\mathrm{d} v}{\mathrm{d} s}\times \frac{\mathrm{d} s}{\mathrm{d} t}

a=v\frac{\mathrm{d} v}{\mathrm{d} s}

ads=vdv

option 1 is correct
