    The charge of an electron is \[1.6\times {{10}^{-19}}C.\]How many electrons strike the screen of cathode ray tube each second, when the beam current is 16 m A?

    A) \[\text{1}{{0}^{-\text{19}}}\]                                     

    B)  \[\text{1}{{0}^{-17}}\]

    C) \[\text{1}{{0}^{-18}}\]                                  

    D)  \[\text{1}{{0}^{17}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                     We know that current (Z) = charge (q) \[\times \] time                 ... (i) Also,      time \[(t)=\frac{1}{frequency\text{ }\left( n \right)}\]    ... (ii) From Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get                 \[n=\frac{q}{I}\] Given,   \[q=1.6\times {{10}^{-19}}C\],                 \[I=16\,mA=16\times {{10}^{-3}}A\]                 \[n=\frac{1.6\times {{10}^{-19}}}{16\times {{10}^{-3}}}={{10}^{-17}}\]
