A copper wire has a circular cross section with a radius of 1.25 mm. If the wire carries a current of 3.70 A, find the drift spe

ed in mm/s of the electrons in this wire. (Note: the density of charge carriers (electrons) in a copper wire is n = 8.46 × 1028 electrons/m3)

Answer:

0.0557 mm / s

Explanation:

r = 1.25 mm = 1.25 x 10^-3 m, i = 3.7 A, n = 8.46 x 10^28 per cubic metre,

e = 1.6 x 10^-19 C

Let vd be the drift velocity

use the formula for the current in terms of drift velocity

i = n e A vd

3.7 = 8.46 x 10^28 x 1.6 x 10^-19 x 3.14 x 1.25 x 1.25 x 10^-6 x vd

vd = 5.57 x 10^-5 m/s

vd = 0.0557 mm / s

Which of the following equations is balanced?
Gnesinka [82]

Answer: c

Explanation:

The way to check which one is the correct one is to simply multiply and see if there are the same number of atoms in both sides for each element.

a. 2×2 atoms of Al ≠ 3×1 atoms of Al

2×3 atoms of O = 3×2 atoms of O

BOTH MUST BE EQUAL FOR IT TO BE ADJUSTED!!!!!

b. 3×2 atoms of Al ≠ 3×1 atoms of Al

3×3 atoms of O ≠ 2×2 atoms of O

c. 2×2 atoms of Al = 4×1 atoms of Al

2×3 atoms of O = 3×2 atoms of O

BOTH ARE EQUAL, CORRECT ANSWER!!!

d. 2×2 atoms of Al ≠ 1×1 atoms of Al

2×3 atoms of O = 3×2 atoms of O

Why is the unit of velocity called derived unit ?​
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The general consensus is that it's more “natural” to define distance (meter) and time (second) and as base units, and derive velocity a the ratio between them. ...

A block of wood measuring 2.75 cm x 4.80 cm x 7.50 cm has a mass of 84.0 g. will the block of wood sink or float in water?
KIM [24]
The volume of the block of wood is given by length × width ×height
 = 2.75 × 4.80 × 7.5
 = 99 cm³
Density is given by mass/volume
Thus = 84.0 g/ 99 cm³
         = 0.848 g/cm³
Hence;  since the block is less dense than water (1 g/cm³) it will float
