The strength of the current flowing in the spiral of the electric hotplate is 2A. what charge passes through

The strength of the current flowing in the spiral of the electric hotplate is 2A. what charge passes through the cross section of the spiral in 1 minute? how many electrons pass through the cross section of the spiral during this time?

I = 2 A.

t = 1 min = 60 s.

q = 1.6 * 10-19 Cl.

Q -?

N -?

The strength of the current I shows what electric charge Q has passed through the cross-section of the conductor per unit time t. The current strength is determined by the formula: I = Q / t.

Q = I * t.

Q = 2 A * 60 s = 120 Cl.

Since one electron has a charge q = 1.6 * 10 ^ -19 C, the number of passed electrons is expressed by the formula: Q = N * q, where N is the number of electrons that passed through the cross section of the conductor.

N = Q / q.

N = 120 C / 1.6 * 10 ^ -19 C = 75 * 10 ^ 19.

Answer: a charge Q = 120 C and N = 75 * 10 ^ 19 electrons passed through the cross section of the conductor.
