Answer:

The number of charges is 1.25 × 10¹⁰

Explanation:

Current is the amount of charge flowing through a conductor per second. The formula for current (I) is given as:

I = Q/t

Where Q is the charge flowing in coulombs and t is the time taken in seconds.

Given that I = 2.0 nA = 2 × 10⁻⁹ A and t = 1 sec

I = Q / t

Q = It =  2 × 10⁻⁹ × 1 =  2 × 10⁻⁹ C

Since each charge = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C, therefore:

The number of charges = 2 × 10⁻⁹ C / 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C = 1.25 × 10¹⁰

Explain why an egg thrown at a concrete wall will break, but an egg thrown at a sheet hanging from the ceiling will not. (Be sur
Firlakuza [10]

An egg thrown at a concrete wall will break, but an egg thrown at a sheet hanging from the ceiling will not due to high momentum and acceleration.

<h3>Why an egg thrown at a concrete wall will break?</h3>

An egg thrown at a concrete wall will break, but an egg thrown at a sheet hanging from the ceiling will not because the momentum and acceleration increases when the egg is thrown downward due to gravity but when we throw an egg in the vertical direction, they move against gravity so the momentum and acceleration decreases.

So we can conclude that an egg thrown at a concrete wall will break, but an egg thrown at a sheet hanging from the ceiling will not due to high momentum and acceleration.

What is the acceleration for an object moving with constant speed? Explain your answer
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

What is the acceleration of an object moving at a constant speed?

The Meaning of Constant Acceleration

The data table above show an object changing its velocity by 10 m/s in each consecutive second. This is referred to as a constant acceleration since the velocity is changing by a constant amount each second.

A current of 16.0 mA is maintained in a single circular loop of 1.90 m circumference. A magnetic field of 0.790 T is directed pa
pav-90 [236]

Answer

given,

current (I) = 16 mA

circumference of the circular loop (S)= 1.90 m

Magnetic field (B)= 0.790 T

S = 2 π r

1.9 = 2 π r

r = 0.3024 m

a) magnetic moment of loop

    M= I A

    M=16 \times 10^{-3} \times \pi \times r^2

   M=16 \times 10^{-3} \times \pi \times 0.3024^2

   M=4.59 \times 10^{-3}\ A m^2

b)  torque exerted in the loop

 \tau = M\ B

 \tau = 4.59 \times 10^{-3}\times 0.79

 \tau = 3.63 \times 10^{-3} N.m

An air compressor compresses 6 L of air at 120 kPa and 22°C to 1000 kPa and 400°C. Determine the flow work, in kJ/kg, required b
Mariana [72]

Answer:

The work flow required by the compressor = 100.67Kj/kg

Explanation:

The solution to this question is obtained from the energy balance where the initial and final specific internal energies and enthalpies are taken from A-17 table from the given temperatures using interpolation .

The work flow can be determined using the equation:

M1h1 + W = Mh2

U1 + P1alph1 + ◇U + Workflow = U2 + P2alpha2

Workflow = P2alpha2 - P1alpha1

Workflow = (h2 -U2) - (h1 - U1)

Workflow = ( 684.344 - 491.153) - ( 322.483 - 229.964)

Workflow = ( 193.191 - 92.519)Kj/kg

Workflow = 100.672Kj/kg

The volume flow rate in an artery supplying the brain is 4.00 10-6 m3/s. (a) If the radius of the artery is 4.50 10-3 m, determi
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

(a) 0.063 m/s

(b) 1.01 m/s

Explanation:

rate of volume flow, V = 4 x 10^-6 m^3/s

(a) radius, r = 4.5 x 10^-3 m

Let the speed of blood is v.

So, V = A x v

where A be the area of crossection of  artery

4 x 10^-6 = 3.14 x 4.5 x 10^-3 x 4.5 x 10^-3 x v

v = 0.063 m/s

Thus, the speed of flow of blood is 0.063 m/s .

(b) Now r' = r / 4 = 4.5 /4 x 10^-3 m = 1.125 x 10^-3 m

Let the speed is v'.

So, V = A' x v'

4 x 10^-6 = 3.14 x 1.125 x 10^-3 x 1.125 x 10^-3 x v'

v' = 1.01 m/s

Thus, the speed of flow of blood is 1.01 m/s .
