A moving belt in a van de graaf generator transfers charge from one point to another. If the belt is 0.1 m. wide, moves with a velocity of 10 m/s and carries a surface charge of +10^-5 C/m^2, determine the current that this generator represents.

1 answer

current=charge/sec=chargedensity*area*velocity
