Car batteries are usually rated in A - h (ampere - hours), which is a unit of charge. This rating tells us how much total charge the battery is capable of providing before it fails. The battery in Sam's new car is rated at 232 A - h. (a) Determine the total charge that this battery is capable of providing. (b) what maximum current does this battery provide in 30 minutes? A. (c) A copper wire has a diameter of 2.072 mm. What magnitude current flows when the drift velocity is 1.34 mm/s? Take the density of copper to be 8.92 x 103 kg/m3.

An aluminum wire 2.053 mm in diameter (12-gauge) carries a current of 1.5 amps. Overall Hint a. What is the number density of charge carriers (electrons) in the wire? Hint for (a) 1 The number density of electrons in the wire is m³ (Use "E" notation to enter your answer in scientific notation. For example, to enter 3.14 × 10¹2, enter "3.14E12".) b. What is the magnitude of the drift velocity of the electrons? Hint for (b) The drift velocity of the electrons is vd = c. What would be the drift velocity if the same gauge copper were used instead of aluminum? Hint for (c) For the same gauge copper wire, the drift velocity would be vd = m/s. m/s. There is a disconnect between how small drift velocities are and how quickly electrical signals travel through wires (nearly at the speed of light). For the moment, treat the two as completely unrelated to each other.
