After rubbing the hair on your head with a balloon, you determine there are 2.4 x 1018 electrons on your head. What is the charge, in coulombs (C), of your head?

Respuesta :

Answer:

q = 0.384 C

Explanation:

The total charge present at the head can be easily found out by multiplying the charge on a single electron with the total number of electrons present on the head:

[tex]q = ne[/tex]

where,

q = total charge on head = ?

n = total no. of electrons on the head = 2.4 x 10¹⁸

e = charge on 1 electron = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

Therefore,

[tex]q = (2.4\ x\ 10^{18})(1.6\ x\ 10^{-19}\ C)[/tex]

q = 0.384 C
