Question

find the number of electrons which constitute 1 ampere of current

Answer 1

one ampere is equivalent to one Coulomb of charge flowing per second. Since each electron carries 1.6 x 10-19 Coulombs of charge, a current of one ampererepresents a flow of (1/1.6) x 10+19 electrons or 6.22 x 10+18 electrons each second. The above applies to a steady flow of 1 ampere of direct current (DC).

Answer 2

Answer:

One ampere current is carried by 6.25×10¹⁸ electrons in the time of one second.

Explanation:

As we know that, the charge on one electron = 1.6×10⁻¹⁹coulombs

One coulomb charge passes in one second  is called one ampere of current.

1.6×10⁻¹⁹coulombs carried by electrons = 1

One coulomb charge transferred by electrons  $=\frac{1}{1.6*10^{-19}}$

                                                        $=6.25*10^{18}electrons$

Therefore 6.25×10¹⁸ electrons constitutes 1 ampere of current .
