Answer:

6.9\times 10^{28}m^{-3}

Explanation:

We are given that

Diameter of wire=d=4.12 mm

Radius of wire=rr=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{4.12}{2}=2.06mm=2.06\times 10^{-3} m

1mm=10^{-3} m

Current=I=8 A

Drift velocity=v_d=5.4\times 10^{-5} m/s

We have to find the density of free electrons in the metal

We know that

Density of electron=n=\frac{I}{v_deA}

Using the formula

Density of free electrons=\frac{8}{5.4\times 10^{-5}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 3.14\times (2.06\times 10^{-3})^2}

By using Area of wire=\pi r^2

\pi=3.14\\e=1.6\times 10^{-19} C

Density of free electrons=6.9\times 10^{28}m^{-3}

Explanation:

We will calculate the density as follows.

               n = \frac{i}{v_{d}eA}

As the metallic wire is in the shape of a circle. So, its area will be calculated as follows.

                 Area = \pi \times r^{2}

                          = 3.14 \times (2.06 \times 10^{-3})^{2}

                v_{d} = 5.40 \times 10^{-5}

                        i = 8 A

Hence, we will calculate the density of free electrons as follows.

              n = \frac{i}{v_{d}eA}

                 = \frac{8}{5.40 \times 10^{-5} \times 3.14 \times (2.06 \times 10^{-3})^{2} \times 1.60 \times 10^{-19}}

                  = 6.950 \times 10^{28} m^{-3}

Thus, we can conclude that the density of free electrons in the metal is 6.950 \times 10^{28} m^{-3}.

If a 1.00 kg body has an acceleration of 2.44 m/s2 at 53° to the positive direction of the x axis, then what are (a) the x comp
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

(a) Fx = 1.464 N

(b) Fy = 1.952 N

(c) F(x, y) = 1.464 i + 1.952 j

Given

Mass = 1kg

Acceleration = 2.44 m/s2

Angle with positive X axis = 53°

As we know

F = ma

By substituting value

F= 1×2.44 N

F= 2.44 N

(a)   Component of force in X direction

Fx = F Cosθ

Fx = 2.44 Cos(53°)

Fx = 2.44 × 0.60 = 1.464 N

(b) Component of force in Y direction

Fy = F Sinθ

Fy = 2.44 Sin(53°) = 2.44 × 0.80 = 1.952 N

(c) Net force in vector notation

F(x, y) = 1.464 i + 1.952 j

Thus we got net force.

Imagine a Rip-van-Winkle type who lives in the mountains. Just before going to sleep he yells "WAKE UP" and the sound echoes off
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

4939200 m

Explanation:

v = Velocity of sound in air = 343 m/s (general value)

For the echo to reach Rip van Winkle it must cover the distance to the mountain twice. So, time taken for the sound traveling to the mountain once

t=\dfrac{8}{2}=4\ hr

Distance is given by

s=vt\\\Rightarrow s=343\times 4\times 60\times 60\\\Rightarrow s=4939200\ m=4939.2\ km

The distance to the mountain is 4939200 m

A​ right-circular cylindrical tank of height 8 ft and radius 4 ft is laying horizontally and is full of fuel weighing 52 ​lb/ft3
tresset_1 [31]

Given:

Height of tank = 8 ft

and we need to pump fuel weighing 52 lb/ ft^{3} to a height of 13 ft above the tank top

Solution:

Total height = 8+13 =21 ft

pumping dist = 21 - y

Area of cross-section = \pi r^{2} =  \pi 4^{2} =16\pi ft^{2}

Now,

Work done required = \int_{0}^{8} 52\times 16\pi (21 - y)dy

                                  = 832\pi \int_{0}^{8} (21 - y)dy

                                  = 832\pi([ 21y ]_{0}^{8} - [\frac{y^{2}}{2}]_{0}^{8}\\)

                                  = 113152\pi = 355477 ft-lb

Therefore work required to pump the fuel is 355477 ft-lb
