Answer: W = 453J

Explanation: using first law of thermodynamics

∆U = Q - W

Where

Q= heat added

W = work done

∆U = internal energy

Also ∆U = Uf - UI

=134 -87

= 47J

Therefore work done will be

W = Q- ∆U

= 500 - 47

= 453J

We can solve the problem by using the first law of thermodynamics:

\Delta U= Q-W

where

\Delta U is the variation of internal energy of the system

Q is the heat added to the system

W is the work done by the system

In this problem, the variation of internal energy of the system is

\Delta U=U_f-U_i=134 J-87 J=47 J

While the heat added to the system is

Q=500 J

therefore, the work done by the system is

W=Q-\Delta U=500 J-47 J=453 J

For a wire has a circular cross section with a radius of 1.23mm.
Mila [183]

Answer:

5.731\times 10^{-5}\ m/s

Decrease

Explanation:

I = Current = 3.7 A

e = Charge of electron = 1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

n = Conduction electron density in copper = 8.49\times 10^{28}\ electrons/m^3

v_d = Drift velocity of electrons

r = Radius = 1.23 mm

Current is given by

I=neAv_d\\\Rightarrow v_d=\dfrac{I}{neA}\\\Rightarrow v_d=\dfrac{3.7}{8.49\times 10^{28}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times \pi (1.23\times 10^{-3})^2}\\\Rightarrow v_d=5.731\times 10^{-5}\ m/s

The drift speed of the electrons is 5.731\times 10^{-5}\ m/s

v_d=\dfrac{I}{neA}

From the equation we can see the following

v_d\propto \dfrac{1}{n}

So, if the number of conduction electrons per atom is higher than that of copper the drift velocity will decrease.

Why is it difficult to walk on muddy road?
Gnesinka [82]
Because of internal friction between layers of mud particles called viscosity. When you walk, your foot exerts a force on the mud; and according to Newton, the mud also (is supposed to) exert an equal opposite force, which leading to an equal net resultant force in your direction, propelling you forward.

Two identical conducting spheres, A and B, carry equal charge. They are separated by a distance much larger than their diameters
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

C. \frac{3F}{8}

Explanation:

Let initial charges on both spheres be,q

F=\frac{Kq^2}{d^2}   \ \ \  \ \ \  \ \ \  \ \_i

When the sphere C is touched by A, the final charges on both will be,\frac{q}{2}

#Now, when C is touched by B, the final charges on both of them will be:

q_c=q_d=\frac{q/2+q}{2}\\\\=\frac{3q}{4}\\

Now the force between A and B is calculated as:

F\prime=\frac{k\times\frac{q}{2}\times \frac{3q}{4}}{d^2}\\F\prime=\frac{3F}{8}

Hence the electrostatic force becomes 3F/8
