10th Class Science Electricity and Circuits Question Bank Electricity

  • question_answer
    10,000 alpha particles per minute are passing through a straight tube of radius r. The resulting electric current is approximately

    A) \[0.5\times {{10}^{-16}}A\]        

    B)         \[2\times {{10}^{12}}A\]

    C) \[0.5\times {{10}^{12}}A\]     

    D)         \[2\times {{10}^{-12}}A\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    \[i=\frac{nq}{t}=\frac{n(2e)}{t}\]                  \[={{10}^{4}}\times \frac{2\times 16\times {{10}^{-20}}}{60}\]                 \[={{10}^{4}}\times \frac{2\times 16\times {{10}^{-20}}}{60}\]                 \[=(5+same\,\,value)\times {{10}^{-17}}\]                 \[=\mathbf{0}.\mathbf{5\times 1}{{\mathbf{0}}^{-\mathbf{16}}}\mathbf{Amp}\] (Value of \[\frac{1}{3}\] is not considered because the given options do not require more precise answer)
