n electrons flow through a cross-section...

`n` electrons flow through a cross-section of a conductor in time `t`. If the charge on an electron is `e`, write an expression for the current in the conductor.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
ne//t

`I = (Q)/(t) = ("ne")/(t)`.
