    If \[{{10}^{10}}\] electrons are acquired by a body every second, the time required for the body to get a total charge of 1 C will be

    A)  2h    

    B)  2 days

    C)  2yr   

    D)  20 yr

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

     1 electron has a charge of \[1.6\times {{10}^{-19}}C\] \[{{10}^{10}}\] electrons would have a charge of \[q=ne\] \[=1.6\times {{10}^{-19}}\times {{10}^{10}}=1.6\times {{10}^{-9}}C\] Thus, in 1 s, charge accumulated \[=1.6\times {{10}^{-9}}C\] So, time taken to accumulate 1C \[=\frac{1}{1.6\times {{10}^{-9}}}=0.625\times {{10}^{9}}\] \[=6.25\times {{10}^{8}}=s=173611\,h\] \[=7233\] days \[\approx 20\,yr\]
