a hippopotamus produces a pressure of 250000 pa when it is standing on all four feet if the weight of the hippo is 40000 N what
mamaluj [8]

0.04m²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Pressure = 250000Pa

Weight = 40000N

Unknown:

Area of each foot = ?

Solution:

Pressure is the force exerted per unit area of a body

  Pressure = \frac{force}{area}

To find the area;

        Area = \frac{force }{pressure}

    Area = \frac{40000}{250000} = 0.16m²

The force exerted by all the four feet is 0.16m²

the area of each feet = \frac{0.16}{4} = 0.04m²

The mean time between collisions for electrons in room temperature copper is 2.5 x 10-14 s. What is the electron current in a 2
Darya [45]

Answer:

1.87 A

Explanation:

τ = mean time between collisions for electrons = 2.5 x 10⁻¹⁴ s

d = diameter of copper wire = 2 mm = 2 x 10⁻³ m

Area of cross-section of copper wire is given as

A = (0.25) πd²

A = (0.25) (3.14) (2 x 10⁻³)²

A = 3.14 x 10⁻⁶ m²

E = magnitude of electric field = 0.01 V/m

e = magnitude of charge on electron = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

m = mass of electron = 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg

n = number density of free electrons in copper = 8.47 x 10²² cm⁻³ = 8.47 x 10²⁸ m⁻³

i = magnitude of current

magnitude of current is given as

i = \frac{Ane^{2}\tau E}{m}

i = \frac{(3.14\times 10^{-6})(8.47\times 10^{28})(1.6\times 10^{-19})^{2}(2.5\times 10^{-14}) (0.01)}{(9.1\times 10^{-31})}

i  = 1.87 A

A stone is dropped from the top of a tower. What is its velocity after 3.0 seconds?
kap26 [50]

For purposes of completing our calculations, we're going to assume that
the experiment takes place on or near the surface of the Earth. 

The acceleration of gravity on Earth is about 9.8 m/s², directed toward the
center of the planet.  That means that the downward speed of a falling object
increases by 9.8 m/s for every second that it falls.

3 seconds after being dropped, a stone is falling at (3 x 9.8) = 29.4 m/s. 

That's the vertical component of its velocity.  The horizontal component is
the same as it was at the instant of the drop, provided there is no horizontal
force on the stone during its fall.
