Determine the number of electrons flowing per second through a conductor, when a current of 32A flows through it.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`I= 32 A, t=1s`
Charge of an electron, `e = 1.6 xx10^(-19)C`
The number of electrons flowing per second, n =?
`I=(q)/(t)=(n e)/(t)`
`n=(I t)/(e)=(32xx1)/(1.6xx10^(-19)C)`=`20xx10^(19)=2xx10^(20)`electrons
