How many electrons per second pass throu...

How many electrons per second pass through a section of wire carrying a current of `0.7A`?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

We known that `I = (q)/(t) = ("ne")/(t) , therefore, n = (it)/(e ) = (0.7xx1)/(1.6x10^(-19)`
So number of electrons in `n = 0.44xx10^(19)`
