Answer: 1.089\times 10^5\ A

Explanation:

Given

Charge discharged Q=9.7\C

time taken t=8.9\times 10^{-5}\ s

Current is given as rate of change of discharge i.e.

\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{Q}{t}\\\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{9.7}{8.9\times 10^{-5}}\\\\\Rightarrow I=1.089\times 10^5\ A

Therefore, the average current is 1.089\times 10^5\ A

GrogVix [38]
T=2 \pi  \sqrt{ \frac{l}{g} }
This is the period of a pendulum.  Notice the mass doesn't matter.  Plugging in your values and 9.81m/s^2 for g, gives
T=10.7731s.

What is the relationship between karst development and topography?
mylen [45]
The karst topography is typically defined as a geographic location characterized by a rugged terrain containing landscapes like underground rivers, fissures, and cracks. It is mainly due to the dissolution of the bedrock due to a much heavier precipitation taking place in the geographic location.

The national high magnetic field laboratory holds the world record for creating the strongest magnetic field. for brief periods
max2010maxim [7]

Newton’s 2nd law states that Force is equal to the product of mass (m) and acceleration (a):

F = m a                                  ---> 1

While in magnetic forces, force can also be expressed as:

F = q v B                               ---> 2

where,

q = total charge

v = velocity = 45 cm / s = 0.45 m / s

B = the magnetic field = 85 T

First we solve for the total charge, q:

q = 3.8 × 10^-23 g (1 mol / 23 g) (6.022 × 10^23 electrons / mol) (1.602 × 10^-19 C / electron)

q = 1.594 × 10^-19 C

 

We equate equations 1 and 2 then solve for acceleration a:

m a = q v B

a = q v B / m

a = [1.594 × 10^-19 C * 0.45 m / s * 85 T] / 3.8 × 10-26 kg

a = 160,437,862.2 m/s^2

 

Therefore the maximum acceleration of Na ions is about 160 × 10^6 m/s^2.
