Answer:
Explanation:
We know that speed is given by dividing distance by time or multiplying length and frequency. The speed of the father will be given by Lf where L is the length of the father’s leg ad f is the frequency.
We know that frequency of simple pendulum follows that
Now, the speed of the father will be while for the child the speed will be
The ratio of the father’s speed to the child’s speed will be
Answer:
(a) 1.87 x 10⁻⁴ m/s
(b) 0.013V
Explanation:
(a) Drift speed, , is the average velocity that a charged particle can have due to an electric field. For a given current, I, the drift velocity is given by;
=
----------------(i)
Where;
q = amount of charge
n = free charge density
A = cross-sectional area of the wire
But current density, J, is the electric current per unit cross-section area. This is also equal to the ratio of the electric field, E, to the resistivity, p, of the material of the wire. i.e
J = =
Equation (i) can then be written as follows;
=
=
=
---------------------(ii)
From the question;
E = 0.0520N/C
p = 1.72 x 10⁻⁸ Ωm
n = 8.5 x 10²⁸ electrons/m³
c = charge on electron = 1.9 x 10⁻¹⁹C
Substitute these values into equation (ii) as follows;
=
= 1.87 x 10⁻⁴ m/s
(b) The potential difference, V, is given by the product of the electric field and the distance, d, between the two points in the wire. i.e
V = E x d [where d = 25.0cm = 0.25m]
V = 0.0520 x 0.25
V = 0.013V
