Question

if 10 raise to 22 electrons flow through a wire in 3 seconds then what is the value of the current??​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Q=en

Q=1.6×10^-19 × 10^22

Q=1.6 × 10^3

Q=1600C

I=Q÷t

I=1600÷3

=533.3A

Answer 2

Answer:

Total Current = 533.33 Ampere

Explanation :

Current is the number of electrons flowing with a charge per unit time from lower potential to the higher potential. 1 Ampere current (1A) is equal to 1 coulomb of charge (1C) per 1 second (1s) of time.

Then, it is given,

Number of electrons (n) = 10^22

Charge of each electron (e) =

= 1.6 × 10^(-19) coulombs

Time (t) = 3 seconds

We know that,

Current (I) = Charge (Q) / Time (t)

=> I = Q / t .... (1)

Also,

Charge (Q) = number of electrons (n) × charge of each electron (e)

=> Q = n•e ... (2)

From eq. (1) and eq. (2) , we get

I = (n•e) / t ... (3)

By applying the values in eq. (3), we get,

I = ( 10^22 × 1.6^(-19)) / 3

I = 533.33 Ampere

Hence, total current =

= 533.33 Ampere
