The magnitude of the drift velocity is very small compared to the speed of random electron motion in a metal. The mean time between collisions can be calculated from the mean free path d, which is the average distance that an electron can travel before colliding with one of the metal nuclei. Using these variables, what is the mean time between collisions τ? Let EF be the energy of the electrons.

The focal length of a relaxed human eye is approximately 1.7 cm. when we focus our eyes on a close up object, we can change the refractive power of the eye by about 16 diopters. (a) does the refractive power of our eyes increase or decrease by 16 diopters when we focus closely? explain. (b) calculate the focal length of the eye when we focus closely.

Aclarinetist, setting out for a performance, grabs his 3.350 kg clarinet case (including the clarinet) from the top of the piano and carries it through the air with an upward force of 24.65 n. find the case's vertical acceleration. indicate an upward acceleration as positive and a downward one as negative.

Air conditioners not only cool air, but dry it as well. suppose that a room in a home measures 5.0m×9.0m×2.4m . if the outdoor temperature is 30 ∘c and the vapor pressure of water in the air is 85 % of the vapor pressure of water at this temperature, what mass of water must be removed from the air each time the volume of air in the room is cycled through the air conditioner? the vapor pressure for water at 30 ∘c is 31.8 torr.
