Find the current density in the beam assuming it is uniform throughout. (b) The speed of the electrons is so close to the speed of light that their speed can be taken as 300Mm/s with negligible error. Find the electron density in the beam. (c) Over what time interval does Avogadro’s number of electrons emerge from the accelerator?
Suppose that a particle accelerator is used to move two beams of particles in opposite directions. In a particular region, electrons move to the right at 6020 m/s and protons move to the left at 2583 m/s. The particles are evenly spaced with 0.0476 m between electrons and 0.0662 m between protons. Assuming that there are no collisions and that the interactions between the particles are negligible, what is the magnitude of the average current in this region?hanic needs to determine the emf and internal resistance of an old battery. He performs two measurements: in the first, he applies a voltmeter to the battery's terminals and reads 11.6 V; in the second, he applies an ammeter to the terminals and reads 14.3 A. What are the battery's emf and internal resistance ??
