Answer:

a. E = 86.36 x 10⁻³ V/m = 86.36 mV/m

b. ρ = 3.6 x 10⁻⁷ Ωm

Explanation:

a.

The electric field in terms of the voltage is given by the following formula:

E = V/d

where,

E = Electric Field in the Wire = ?

V = Potential Difference = 3.8 V

d = distance between the points = 44 m

Therefore,

E = 3.8 V/44 m

<u>E = 86.36 x 10⁻³ V/m = 86.36 mV/m</u>

<u></u>

b.

Now, from Ohm's Law:

V = IR

R = V/I

where,

R = Resistance of wire = ?

I = Current = 3 A

Therefore,

R = 3.8 V/3 A

R = 1.27 Ω

Now, the resistance of a wire can be given as:

R = ρL/A

where,

ρ = resistivity of material = ?

L = Length = 44 m

A = Cross-sectional area = πr² = π(0.002 m)² =  1.25 x 10⁻⁵ m²

Therefore,

1.27 Ω = ρ*44 m/1.25 x 10⁻⁵ m²

(1.27 Ω)(1.25 x 10⁻⁵ m²)/44 m = ρ

<u>ρ = 3.6 x 10⁻⁷ Ωm</u>

Four different resistors have various amounts of electric current flowing through them. Given the values of current I and resist
Artemon [7]

You did not provide the options. However, the options are

I = 6.0, R= 4.0 ohms

I = 9.0, R= 2.0ohms

I = 3.0, R= 2.0ohms

I = 8.0, R= 8.0 ohms

Answer:

The order of  the resistors from the highest to the lowest is:

I = 8.0, R= 8.0 ohms

I = 6.0, R= 4.0 ohms

I = 9.0, R= 2.0ohms

I = 3.0, R= 2.0 ohms

Explanation:

ohm's law states that voltage across a conductor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it.  V = IR

Based on this formula, the voltages in each of the resistors are calculated below from the highest to the lowest

  • For I = 8.0, R= 8.0 ohms

       V = 8 * 8 =64 volts

  •  For I = 6.0, R= 4.0 ohms

      V = 6 * 4 =24 volts

  • For I = 9.0, R= 2.0 ohms

       V = 9 * 2 =18 volts

  • For I = 3.0, R= 2.0 ohms

       V = 3 * 2 =6 volts

The current supplied by a battery as a function of time is I(t) = (0.88 A) e^(-t*6 hr). What is the total number of electrons tr
Degger [83]

Answer:

e. 1.2 x 10²³

Explanation:

According to the problem, The current equation is given by:

I(t)=0.88e^{-t/6\times3600s}

Here time is in seconds.

Consider at t=0 s the current starts to flow due to battery and the current stops when the time t tends to infinite.

The relation between current and number of charge carriers is:

q=\int\limits {I} \, dt

Here the limits of integration is from 0 to infinite. So,

q=\int\limits {0.88e^{-t/6\times3600s}}\, dt

q=0.88\times(-6\times3600)(0-1)

q = 1.90 x 10⁴ C

Consider N be the total number of charge carriers. So,

q = N e

Here e is electronic charge and its value is 1.69 x 10⁻¹⁹ C.

N = q/e

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

N= \frac{1.9\times10^{4} }{1.69\times10^{-19}}

N = 1.2 x 10²³

A student throws a rock upwards. The rock reaches a maximum height 2.4 seconds after it was released.
Allisa [31]

Answer:

23.52 m/s

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Time taken (t) to reach the maximum height = 2.4 s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Initial velocity (u) =..?

At the maximum height, the final velocity (v) is zero. Thus, we can obtain how fast the rock (i.e initial velocity)

was thrown as follow:

v = u – gt (since the rock is going against gravity)

0 = u – (9.8 × 2.4)

0 = u – 23.52

Collect like terms

0 + 23.52 = u

u = 23.52 m/s

Therefore, the rock was thrown at a velocity of 23.52 m/s.

sweet [91]

Answer:

The perimeter of the rectangle is 60 units.

Explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is given by the equation P = 2L + 2W. With W = 12 units and L = 18 units, substituting the values in the equation above:

P = 2(18 units) + 2(12 units)

P = 36 units + 24 units

P = 60 units
