Question

How many electrons per seconddo pass through a cross section of a copper wire carrying 10_16 A

Answer 1

What are the number of electrons passing per second through a cross section of copper wires carrying 10 ampere?

Hi,

Use formula (I=ne/t)

Here, I=current,

n=number of electron

e=electron =1.6 x 10¯¹9 C

Then calculate,

I=ne/t

10= n x 1.6 x10¯¹9 / 1
