There is a net passage of 4.7 1018 electrons by a point in a wire conductor in 0.10 s. What is the current in the wire?

Question

____A

Answer 1

To find the current in the wire, we first need to calculate the total charge that passed through the wire conductor.

Given:
Number of electrons = 4.7 x 10^18 electrons
Charge of one electron = 1.6 x 10^-19 C

Total charge = Number of electrons x Charge of one electron
Total charge = (4.7 x 10^18) x (1.6 x 10^-19)
Total charge = 7.52 x 10^-1 C

Now, we can calculate the current using the formula:

Current = Total charge / Time
Current = (7.52 x 10^-1) / 0.10
Current = 7.52 A

Therefore, the current in the wire conductor is 7.52 Amperes.
