We simply asked to name three uses for mercury.
The most common and well-known use of mercury is the production of thermometers. It's property to stay liquid at room temperature makes it ideal for a temperature indicator. However, the use of mercury is thermometers has been phased out due to health hazards.
It is also used to form an amalgam which is the result of its combination with silver or gold. Mercury has been used to mine gold and silver. This application has also been phased out.
Today's use of mercury includes mercury-vapor lamps which are the bright lamps used in high-ways.

The other answer choices are from the imperial system
Answer:
a) 4.9*10^-6
b) 5.71*10^-15
Explanation:
Given
current, I = 3.8*10^-10A
Diameter, D = 2.5mm
n = 8.49*10^28
The equation for current density and speed drift is
J = I/A = (ne) Vd
A = πD²/4
A = π*0.0025²/4
A = π*6.25*10^-6/4
A = 4.9*10^-6
Now,
J = I/A
J = 3.8*10^-10/4.9*10^-6
J = 7.76*10^-5
Electron drift speed is
J = (ne) Vd
Vd = J/(ne)
Vd = 7.76*10^-5/(8.49*10^28)*(1.60*10^-19)
Vd = 7.76*10^-5/1.3584*10^10
Vd = 5.71*10^-15
Therefore, the current density and speed drift are 4.9*10^-6
And 5.71*10^-15 respectively
I believe there are two correct answers, and those answers are A and D
Treating the system as a point-like particle allows us to assign a quantity to the object and monitor this quantity throughout any changes. The complexity of the system which includes geometry, appearance, and extensions can complicate the studying of the system.
