Answer: 1.6x10^-9C

Explanation:

t =10^-10s

Q=1.6 x10^-19 c

I=?

I = Q/t

= 1.6x10^-19c/10^-10s

=1.6x10^-19x10^10

=1.6x10^-9 A

mark this as brainalist answer....

The current flowing through the conductor is equal to 1.6 nano-ampere.

Given:

The amount of charge flown (Q) = 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

The total time taken (T) = 10⁻¹⁰ seconds

To Find:

The current flowing through the conductor.

Solution:

→ The current is defined as the rate of flow of charge. The current flowing through a conductor is equal to the amount of charge flowing through the conductor per unit of time.

→ To calculate the current flowing, we divide the total charge flowing (Q) by the total time taken (T).

In the given question, the amount of charge flowing (Q) through the conductor is equal to 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C and the total time taken (T) is equal to 10⁻¹⁰ seconds.

Let the current flowing through the conductor be 'i'.

                         \therefore\:Current(i)=\frac{Amount\:of\:charge\:flown(Q)}{Total\:time\:taken(T)}

                                         \\\\\therefore\:i=\frac{Q}{T} \\\\\therefore\:i=\frac{(1.6\times10^{-19}) }{(10^{-10}) } \\\\\therefore\:i=1.6\times10^{-9} \:Ampere\\\\\therefore\:i=1.6 \:nA\\

Therefore the amount of current flowing through the conductor is equal to 1.6 nano-ampere.
