Chapter 27: Q. 5 (page 762)

5. The electron drift speed is 2.0脳10-4m/s in a metal with a mean time between collisions of 5.0脳10-14s. What is the electric field strength?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The electric field strength is22.8mV/m.

Step by step solution

01

Given Information

Electron drift speed=2.0脳10-4m/s

Time between collisions=5.0脳10-14s

02

Explanation

The drift speed is given as a function of the electric field as

vd=e蟿mE,

The electric field as

E=mvde蟿.

Mass of the electron is m=9.1路10-31kgand the charge, the elementary charge, is m=9.1路10-31kgwe can find the value of the electric field strength to be

role="math" localid="1648877656088" E=9.1脳10-31kg脳2脳10-4m/s1.6脳10-19c脳5脳10-14s

E=22.75mV/m

03

Final Answer 

Hence, the electric field strength is22.8mV/m.

The biochemistry that takes place inside cells depends on various elements, such as sodium, potassium, and calcium, that are dissolved in water as ions. These ions enter cells through narrow pores in the cell membrane known as ion channels. Each ion channel, which is formed from a specialized protein molecule, is selective for one type of ion. Measurements with microelectrodes have shown that a 0.30nmdiameter potassium ion K+channel carries a current of role="math" localid="1649134390247" 1.8pA.

a. How many potassium ions pass through if the ion channel opens for 1.0ms?

b. What is the current density in the ion channel?
