An electric current of `20 mu A` appears in a discharege tube if the discharge current is due to flow of equal number of electrons and protons then how many electrons flow across a cross-section of the tube in `2` minutes |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - `7.5 xx 10^(15)` Total charge flowing in two minutes `q = It = (20 xx 10^(-6)A) xx (2 xx 60s) = 24 xx 10^(-4) C` Charge flowing due to electron `= (24 xx 10^(-4))/(2) = 12 xx 10^(-4)C` No of electron flowing across-section of a tube is `2` minutes is `n= (12 xx 10^(-4))/(1.6 xx 10^(-19)) = 7.5 xx 10^(15)` |
