A large hollow metallic sphere has a positive charge of 35.4μC at its centre. Find how much electric flux emanates from the sphere.

Solution

Charge, q = 35.4 μC = 35.4 x 10-6
Therefore, Electric flux,

A current T flows through a metallic wire of radius ‘r’ and the free electrons in it drift with a velocity vd. Calculate the drift velocity of the free electrons through the wire of the same material, having double the radius, when same current flows through it.

Solution

Current flowing through the conductor, i - neAVd
Therefore,


Drift velocity, vdstraight i over neA space equals space fraction numerator i over denominator n e pi r squared end fraction
