Question

An iron wire has the cross-sectional area of 4.5X10-6 m2 . Complete the following steps to compute the drift speed of the conduction electrons in the wire. 

ANSWER A-E, USE IMAGE AS REFERNCE

An iron wire has the cross-sectional area of 4.5 x 10-6 m². Complete the following steps to
compute the drift speed of the conduction electrons in the wire.
a. How many kilograms are there in 1 mole of iron?
b. Compute the molar density of iron using your results from part (a) and the density of iron. (Hint:
It's the number of moles of iron per cubic meter).
C. Calculate the number density of iron atoms using Avogadro's number.
d. Calculate the number density of conduction electrons given that there are two conduction
electrons per iron atom.
e. If the wire carries a current of 28.0 A, calculate the drift speed of conduction electrons.
