A cylindrical conductor is 1m long and 2mm in diameter and contains 1029 free carriers per cubic meter. 1. Find the total charge of the carriers in this wire. 2. If the wire is used in a circuit, find the current flowing in the wire if the average velocity of carrier is 19.9x10-6 m/s. 1 meter
Ohm's law
Ohm’s law is a prominent concept in physics and electronics. It gives the relation between the current and the voltage. It is used to analyze and construct electrical circuits. Ohm's law states that the voltage across a conductor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it.
Path of Least Resistance
In a series of alternate pathways, the direction of least resistance is the actual or metaphorical route that offers the least resistance to forwarding motion by a given individual or body.
Find the total charge in mC of a cylindrical conductor (solid wire) 1 meter long and a diameter of 2mm. Given also its charge density (De) is 10^29 carriers/m^3 and its carrier velocity (u) is 19.9x10^-6 m/s
