Consider a current flowing in wire made of aluminum (with density 2.702 g cm 3 and atomic weight 26.98 u). Assume that each atom contributes 3.5 conduction electrons.
What is the drift speed in a 2.5 mm -diameter aluminum wire carrying 25 A ?

Two manned satellites approaching one another at a relative speed of 0.550 m/s intend to dock. the first has a mass of 2.50 ✕ 103 kg, and the second a mass of 7.50 ✕ 103 kg. assume that the positive direction is directed from the second satellite towards the first satellite. (a) calculate the final velocity after docking, in the frame of reference in which the first satellite was originally at rest.(b) what is the loss of kinetic energy in this inelastic collision? (c) repeat both parts, in the frame of reference in which the second satellite was originally at rest. final velocity(d) loss of kinetic energy = ?

What will happen in a hybrid vehicle if current flow becomes too high due to a short?

The text compares alternating current with direct current. how are they different? a alternating current reverses direction in the electrical wiring. direct current flows in one direction only. b direct current reverses direction in the electrical wiring. alternating current flows in one direction only. c direct current is powered by solar energy. alternating current is powered by electrical energy. d alternating current does not move in the electrical wiring. direct current does move in the electrical wiring.
