Answer:

L = 30 m

Explanation:

T = 2π√(L/g)

L = g(T/2π)²

L = 9.8(11/2π)² = 30.036664... m

Calculate the amount of heat liberated (in kj) from 411 g of mercury when it cools from 88.0°c to 12.0°c.

Katen [24]

You should note that the melting point of mercury is -38.83°C, while the boiling point is at 356.7°C. Then, that means that there is no latent heat involved here. We only compute for the sensible heat.

ΔH = mCpΔT
The Cp of mercury is 0.14 J/g·°C
Thus,
ΔH = (411 g)(0.14 J/g·°C)(88 - 12°C)
<em>ΔH = 4,373.04 J</em>

Calculate the average drift speed of electrons traveling through a copper wire with a crosssectional area of 80 mm2 when carryin

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

The correct answer is $2.8*10^{-5}ms^{-1}$

Explanation:

The formula for the electron drift speed is given as follows,

$u=I/nAq$

where n is the number of of electrons per unit m³, q is the charge on an electron and A is the cross-sectional area of the copper wire and I is the current. We see that we already have A , q and I. The only thing left to calculate is the electron density n that is the number of electrons per unit volume.

Using the information provided in the question we can see that the number of moles of copper atoms in a cm³ of volume of the conductor is $8.93/63.5 molcm^{-3}$ . Converting this number to m³ using very elementary unit conversion we get $140384molm^{-3}$ . If we multiply this number by the Avagardo number which is the number of atoms per mol of any gas , we get the number of atoms per m³ which in this case is equal to the number of electron per m³ because one electron per atom of copper contribute to the current. So we get,

$n=140384*6.02*10^{23} = 8.45*10^{28}electrons.m^{-3}$

if we convert the area from mm³ to m³ we get $A=80*10^{-6}m^{2}$ .So now that we have n, we plug in all the values of A ,I ,q and n into the main equation to obtain,

$u=30/(8.45*10^{28}*80*10^{-6}*1.602*10^{-19})\\u=2.8*10^{-5}m.s^{-1}$

which is our final answer.

Which event is an example of condensation?

ale4655 [162]

Answer: D

If the fog disappears when the Sun comes out, then this is an example of condensation because:

the Sun actually dries up the fog, and it makes it into higher clouds.

Hope this helps you!

Determine the stopping distances for a car with an initial speed of 88 km/h and human reaction time of 2.0 s for the following a

seropon [69]

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of the car, u = 88 km/h = 24.44 m/s

Reaction time, t = 2 s

Distance covered during this time, $d=24.44\times 2=48.88\ m$

(a) Acceleration, $a=-4\ m/s^2$

We need to find the stopping distance, v = 0. It can be calculated using the third equation of motion as :

$s=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}$

$s=\dfrac{-(24.44)^2}{2\times -4}$

s = 74.66 meters

s = 74.66 + 48.88 = 123.54 meters

(b) Acceleration, $a=-8\ m/s^2$

$s=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}$

$s=\dfrac{-(24.44)^2}{2\times -8}$

s = 37.33 meters

s = 37.33 + 48.88 = 86.21 meters

Hence, this is the required solution.
