If they lose an electron, that means they become more positive since an electron is negatively charged. So the answer is ‘positive’
Answer:
h = 5.09 m
Explanation:
Applying the Law of conservation of energy to this situation, we can write:

where,
h = height of the hill = ?
v = speed of cart at the end = 10 m/s
g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²
Therefore,

<u>h = 5.09 m</u>
E = <u>kQ</u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u>
(r + h)²
where,
k = 9 × 10^9Nm²C^-2
Q = total charge, 300uC = 300 × 10^ -6C
r = 8 × 10^ -2m
h = 16 × 10^ -2m
then,
E = <u>9</u><u>e</u><u>9</u><u> </u><u>*</u><u> </u><u>3</u><u>0</u><u>0</u><u>e</u><u>^</u><u>-</u><u>6</u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u>
(8e^-2 + 16e^-2)²
E = 4687500N/C
Answer:
1.87 A
Explanation:
τ = mean time between collisions for electrons = 2.5 x 10⁻¹⁴ s
d = diameter of copper wire = 2 mm = 2 x 10⁻³ m
Area of cross-section of copper wire is given as
A = (0.25) πd²
A = (0.25) (3.14) (2 x 10⁻³)²
A = 3.14 x 10⁻⁶ m²
E = magnitude of electric field = 0.01 V/m
e = magnitude of charge on electron = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C
m = mass of electron = 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg
n = number density of free electrons in copper = 8.47 x 10²² cm⁻³ = 8.47 x 10²⁸ m⁻³
= magnitude of current
magnitude of current is given as


= 1.87 A
