An 18-gauge copper wire (diameter 1.02 mm) carries a current
with a current density of . The density of free electrons for
copper iselectrons per cubic meter. Calculate (a) the current in
the wire and (b) the drift velocity of electrons in the wire.
Cyclotrons are widely used in nuclear medicine for producing short-lived radioactive isotopes. These cyclotrons typically accelerate (the hydride ion, which has one proton and two electrons) to an energy of This ion has a mass very close to that of a proton because the electron mass is negligible about of the proton鈥檚 mass. A typical magnetic field in such cyclotrons is .(a) What is the speed of a ? (b) If the has energy what is the radius of this ion鈥檚 circulator orbit?
An electron at pointinFig. E27.15has a speedofFind (a) the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field that will cause the electron to follow the semicircular path fromto, and (b) the time required for the electron to move fromto.
An emf source with E = 120 V, a resistor with R = 80.0 鈩, and a capacitor with C = 4.00 碌F are connected in series. As the capacitor charges, when the current in the resistor is 0.900 A, what is the magnitude of the charge on each plate of the capacitor?
Batteries are always labeled with their emf; for instances an AA flashlight battery is labelled 鈥 1.5 V 鈥. Would it also be appropriate to put a label on batteries starting how much current they provide? Why or why not?
