Answer:

The amount of electron that pass through the wire is 6.3*10^19. (Option C)

Explanation:

The current represent the amount of electriccharge iper period of time. When the current is in Ampere (A) the charge is expressed in Coulombs (C) and the time in seconds (s).

I=Q/T

Solving for Q and replacing the value for the current an a time of 1 seconds:

Q=I.T = 10 A * 1s = 10 C/s * 1s = 10 C

The amount of electrons is calculated by dividing the total charge by the charge of one electron. Recall for the charge of a one electron q is:

q=1.6*10^-19 C

Number of electrons = 10 C  / 1.6*10^-19 C = 6.3*10^19

<span> No. of e- at a instant through given area is = total charge passing per unit time/charge of e-
 using i=q/t=(no.of e-(n))(1.6*10^-19)= 10
n=6.3*10^19 </span>

What do the arrows in this photograph represent
babunello [35]

Answer: D. An action-reaction force pair

Explanation: When you sit in your chair, your body exerts a downward force on the chair and the chair exerts an upward force on your body. There are two forces resulting from this interaction - a force on the chair and a force on your body. Another example would be a person pushing against a wall (action force), and the wall exerts an equal and opposite force against the person.

stiv31 [10]
The only vertical forces are weight and normal force, and they balance since the surface is horizontal. The horizontal forces are the applied force (uppercase F) in the direction the block slides and the frictional force (lowercase f) in the opposite direction.

Apply Newton's 2nd Law in the horizontal direction:
ΣF = ma
F - f = ma
where f = µmg

F - µmg = ma
F = m(a +µg)
F = (20 kg)(1.4 m/s² + 0.28(9.8 m/s²)

F = 83 N
