JulsSmile [24]

Answer:  

t = 1.27 x 10⁹ s  

Explanation:  

First, we will find the volume of the wire:

Volume = V = AL  

where,  

A = Cross-sectional area of wire = πr² = π(1 cm)² = π(0.01 m)² = 3.14 x 10⁻⁴ m²  

L = Length of wire = 150 km = 150000 m  

Therefore,    

V = 47.12 m³

 

Now, we will find the number of electrons in the wire:  

No. of electrons = n = (Electrons per unit Volume)(V)  

n = (8.43 x 10²⁸ electrons/m³)(47.12 m³)  

n = 3.97 x 10³⁰ electrons  

Now, we will use the formula of current to find out the time taken by each electron to cross the wire:

I =\frac{q}{t}  

where,  

t = time = ?  

I = current = 500 A  

q = total charge = (n)(chareg on one electron)  

q = (3.97 x 10³⁰ electrons)(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C/electron)  

q = 6.36 x 10¹¹ C  

500\ A = \frac{6.36\ x\ 10^{11}\ C}{t}\\\\t = \frac{6.36\ x\ 10^{11}\ C}{500\ A}

Therefore,

<u>t = 1.27 x 10⁹ s</u>

calculate the energy spent on spraying a drop of mercury of 1 cm radius into 10^6 droplets all of same radius. surface tension o
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

ANS : .Energy spent on spraying =4.3542*10^{-4}J

Explanation:

<em>Given:</em>

  • <em>Radius of mercury = 1cm initially ;</em>
  • <em>split into 10^{6} drops ;</em>

Thus, volume is conserved.

i.e ,

\frac{4}{3} \pi R_{o}^{3} = 10^{6}*\frac{4}{3} \pi R_{n}^{3}\\R_{n}=\frac{R_{o}}{10^{2}} = \frac{1cm}{100} = 0.01 cm

  • Energy of a droplet = TΔA

Where ,

  • <em>T is the surface tension </em>
  • <em>ΔA is the change in area</em>

Initial energy E_{i} = T*A_{i}\\= 0.0035 * 4 *\pi *0.01^{2}\\=4.398*10^{-6}J

Final energy E_{f}=10^{6}*T*A_{f}\\=10^{6}*0.0035*4*\pi *(0.0001)^2\\=4.39823*10^{-4}

∴  .Energy spent on spraying = =E_{f}-E{i}\\=(439.823-4.39823)*10^{-6}\\=4.3542*10^{-4}J

ANS : .Energy spent on spraying =4.3542*10^{-4}J

Bingel [31]

Mike enters a revolving door that is not moving. Mike should push at the edge of the door where it is largest distance from the pivot point in order to produce a torque with the least amount of force. Torque is equal to t = force x distance.
