PHY ala SPRING 2002 Securzon Ser ES 2 Ressonine According to Equation 20.1, the current I is defined as J = (Ag)/(A1), where Aq is the charge that flows in a time At, ‘This expression can be solved for Ag. Each : electron carries a charge of magnitude e, so that we can divide Aq by e to obtain the number of electrons, | SOLUTION Solving Equation 20.1 for Aq gives Ag = At. Dividing by e reveals that ‘Tht _ (0.27 A)(60s) _ e- 160x109 C 1.0x 107 Number of electrons = 2) [SSM] REASONING Since current is defined as charge per unit time, the current used by the portable compact disc player is equal to the charge provided by the battery pack (180 C) divided by the time in which the charge is delivered (2.0 h).. SOLUTION The amount of current that the player uses in operation is determined from Equation 20.1: Ag _ 180 (224) =[0005A ‘At 20h (3600s. Converts hours to seconds j 3) REASONING AND SOLUTION We know that V=IR. Therefore, V-120V san = [0214 I rT fon 7 LO i YY) REASONING AND SOLUTION The resistance of the cable is Since A =m’, the radius of the cable is (1.72 x10°* Q+m)(0.24 m)(1200 A) 9.9x107 m 5) REASONING Ano SOLUTION Suppose that when the intial vemperature ofthe wire is T, the resistance is R,, and when the temperature rises to T the resistance is R. The relation between temperature and resistance is given by Equation 20.5 as R= Ry{l + a (1 Th where a is the temperature coefficient of resistivity. The initial and final resistances are related to the voltage and current as Ry = Wil, and R = VII, where the voltage V across the wire is the same in both cases. Substituting these values for ‘Ry and R into Equation 20.5 and solving for 7, we arrive at () §) REASONING AND SOLUTION We know P = V7/R. a T=Ty+ =20°C+ 45x10 (Ct | V= PR = (0.25 W)(680Q) =[13 V V= PR = (2.0 W)(6809) = [37 V b) 2 =RtRyt Wy 34 5ee co) D> Ve. asy ‘nr Rey en Ty =I, 2, +564 > seezes VEER =(056)G2) = 468V and te om for Uy aah c.
