Question

if 5000 electron are following through a conductor in 10s then calculate amount of current flowing​

Answer 1

Explanation:

C=q/s

C=(5000)(1.6*10^-19)/10

C=16*5*10^-18

C=80*10^-18

C=8*10^-17A

Answer 2

Question :

If 5000 electron are following through a conductor in 10s then calculate amount of current flowing.

Given :

No. of electrons (n) = 5000

Time (t) = 10 s

To Find :

Amount of current flowing = ?

Formula :

Charge = ne

Where,

n : No. of electrons

e : charge on one electron

Current (I) = $\tt \frac{Q}{t}$

Where,

I : current

Q : charge

t : time

Solution :

Total charge (Q) = ne

$\tt \implies$ Q = (5000) $\tt 1.6 × {10}^{-19}$

$\tt \implies Q = 8 × {10}^{-16} \:C$

Current (I) = $\tt \frac{Q}{t}$

$\tt \implies I = \frac{8×{10}^{-16}}{10}$

$\tt \implies I = 8 × {10}^{-17} \:A$

Current flowing is $\tt 8 × {10}^{-17}$ C
