An electric device delivers a current of [tex]$15.0 A$[/tex] for 30 seconds. How many electrons flow through it?

Asked by akosuanyantaboateng

Answer (2)

This answer outlines key principles associated with semiconductors and diodes, focusing on conductivity, rectifier voltage, acceptor atoms, barrier potential, and the distinctions between intrinsic and extrinsic semiconductors. Understanding these concepts is crucial for grasping semiconductor behavior in electrical engineering contexts. ;

When a current of 15.0 A flows for 30 seconds, a total charge of 450 C is delivered. Dividing this charge by the charge of a single electron gives approximately 2.81 × 1 0 21 electrons flowing through the device. Therefore, about 2.81 × 1 0 21 electrons pass through the device in that time period.
