Answer:

Predicting the size, location, and timing of natural hazards is virtually impossible, but now, earth scientists are able to forecast hurricanes, floods, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, wildfires, and landslides using fractals.

What current flows through a 2.56-cm-diameter rod of pure silicon that is 20.0 cm long, when 1.00 ✕ 103 V is applied to it? (Suc

vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Current, I = 0.0011 A

Explanation:

It is given that,

Diameter of rod, d = 2.56 cm

Radius of rod, r = 1.28 cm = 0.0128 m

The resistivity of the pure silicon, $\rho=2300\ \Omega-m$

Length of rod, l = 20 cm = 0.2 m

Voltage, $V=1\times 10^3\ V$

The resistivity of the rod is given by :

$R=\rho\dfrac{L}{A}$

$R=2300\ \Omega-m\dfrac{0.2\ m}{\pi (0.0128\ m)^2}$

R = 893692.30 ohms

Current flowing in the rod is calculated using Ohm's law as :

V = I R

$I=\dfrac{V}{R}$

$I=\dfrac{10^3\ V}{893692.30\ \Omega}$

I = 0.0011 A

So, the current flowing in the rod is 0.0011 A. Hence, this is the required solution.

A plate carries a charge of 3.8 UC, while a rod carries a charge of 1.9 C. How many electrons must be transferred from the plate

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

$N_{electrons}=Q_{transfered}/q_{electron}=5.94*10^{18}electrons$

Explanation:

The total charge is distributed over the two objects:

$Q_{total}/2=(3.8*10^{-6}C+1.9C)/2=0.9500019C\\$

The plate and the rod must have $Q_{total}/2\\$ . So the charge transferred from the plate to the rod is:

$Q_{transfered}=3.8*10^{-6}C-Q_{total}/2=3.8*10^{-6}C-0.9500019C=-0.9499981C\\$

Number of electrons:

$N_{electrons}=Q_{transfered}/q_{electron}=-0.9499981C/(-1.6*10^{-19}C)=5.94*10^{18}electrons$

What did the romans build as a step toward environment management

astra-53 [7]

Managing and looking after a port environment. They were also vegetarian. Smoke led to pollution, so there were laws passed that factories could not be built where other buildings could be affected. There were also water systems and sewage systems that carried water to people and carried sewage away from people who could afford it at the time.
