Question

A typical lightning bolt has about 10.0 C of charge. How many excess electrons are in a typical lightning bolt?

Answer 1

Answer:

How many excess electrons are in a typical lightning bolt? The charge on an electron is 1.6×10(^−19)C. Hence in 10 C, we would have the following number of electrons: 10/(1.6×10^−19 = 6.25×10^19 electrons.

Answer 2

A typical lightning bolt has about 10.0 C of charge. 6.25×$10^{19}$ excess electrons are in a typical lightning bolt.

Given,

Charge = 10C

To find,

Excess electrons are in a typical lightning bolt = ?

Solution,

Lightning Bolt,

• This across the icon of the battery on the main screen menu denotes that the device has been plugged in an external power source.
• When we remove the device from the source of power the bolt will disappear, which will leave the icon of the battery.

Excess electrons = $\frac{10}{1.6[10^{-19}] } = 6.25[10^{19}]$

Therefore, a typical lightning bolt has about 10.0 C of charge. 6.25×$10^{19}$ excess electrons are in a typical lightning bolt
