विकल्प
4.0 × 1016
5.0 × 1017
1.6 × 1016
1.0 × 1017
उत्तर
A steady current of 8 mA flows through a wire. The number of electrons passing through a cross-section of the wire in 10 s is 5.0 × 1017.
Explanation:
Given: I = 8 mA = 8 × 10-3 A
t = 10 s
e = 1.6 × 10-19
We know that,
Q = ne .......(i)
Q = It .......(ii)
Equating (i) and (ii), we get
ne = It
`n xx (1.6 xx 10^-19) = 8 xx 10^-3 xx 10`
n = `(8 xx 10^-2)/(1.6 xx 10^-19)`
n = `80/(16) xx 10^-2/10^-19`
n = `5 xx 10^17`

Consider a coin of Example 1.20. It is electrically neutral and contains equal amounts of positive and negative charge of magnitude 34.8 kC. Suppose that these equal charges were concentrated in two point charges seperated by (i) 1 cm `(∼ 1/2 xx "diagonal of the one paisa coin")`, (ii) 100 m (~ length of a long 6 building) and (iii) 106 m (radius of the earth). Find the force on each such point charge in each of the three cases. What do you conclude from these results?
