Answer:
n = 2.25 x 10¹⁴ electrons/s
Explanation:
The amount of electric current is defined as the electric charge passing through an area per unit time. Hence:
I = q/t
where,
I = Current
q = amount of charge
t = time interval
but,
q = ne
therefore,
I = ne/t
where,
n = no. of electrons
e = charge on single electron = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C
t = 1 s (for electrons passing per second)
I = Current = 36 μA = 3.6 x 10⁻⁵ A
Therefore,
3.6 x 10⁻⁵ A = n(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C)/1 s
n = (3.6 x 10⁻⁵ A)/(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C)
<u>n = 2.25 x 10¹⁴ electrons/s</u>
<h2>
Electric field at the location of the charge is 1250 N/C</h2>
Explanation:
Electric field is the ratio of force and charge.
Force, F = 3.00 mN = 3 x 10⁻³ N
Charge, q = 2.40 μC = 2.40 x 10⁻⁶ C
We have
Electric field at the location of the charge is 1250 N/C
Acceleration is a change in velocity, either an increase in speed or a change in direction. Acceleration measures the rate of change of an object's velocity. Average acceleration is calculated by dividing the change in velocity over the time.
