2.4 ampere current is flowing in a wire .how many electrons pass a given point in the wire in one second if the charge on an electron is 1.6x10 power -19 couloms.

1 Amp = 6.242*10^18 Electrons/s

2.4 Amps = 2.4 * 6.242*10^18 = 1.5*10^19 Electrons/s.

To find the number of electrons passing a given point in one second, we can use the equation:

Current (I) = Charge (Q) / Time (t)

Rearranging the equation to solve for charge:

Charge (Q) = Current (I) × Time (t)

Given:
Current (I) = 2.4 amperes
Charge on an electron (q) = 1.6 × 10^(-19) coulombs
Time (t) = 1 second

Plugging in the values into the equation:

Charge (Q) = 2.4 A × 1 s = 2.4 coulombs

Now, let's calculate the number of electrons passing the given point.

Number of electrons (n) = Charge (Q) / Charge on an electron (q)

Substituting the values:

Number of electrons (n) = 2.4 coulombs / 1.6 × 10^(-19) coulombs

Calculating the number of electrons:

Number of electrons (n) = 1.5 × 10^19 electrons

Therefore, approximately 1.5 × 10^19 electrons pass a given point in the wire in one second.

To find out how many electrons pass through a given point in a wire in one second, we can use the formula:

Number of electrons = (Current * Time) / (Charge on an electron)

Given:
Current = 2.4 amperes
Time = 1 second
Charge on an electron = 1.6 x 10^-19 coulombs

Plugging in the values, we can calculate the number of electrons:

Number of electrons = (2.4 A * 1 s) / (1.6 x 10^-19 C)

First, let's simplify the units:
1 A = 1 C/s, so 2.4 A = 2.4 C/s

Now, we'll substitute the values:
Number of electrons = (2.4 C/s * 1 s) / (1.6 x 10^-19 C)

To divide by something in the denominator, we invert and multiply the fraction:
Number of electrons = (2.4 C/s) * (1 / (1.6 x 10^-19 C))

Next, let's simplify the expression in the denominator:
1 / (1.6 x 10^-19 C) = (1.6 x 10^19 C / 1)

Now, we'll substitute the new expression for the denominator:
Number of electrons = (2.4 C/s) * (1.6 x 10^19 C / 1)

Finally, we multiply the numerator with the numerator and the denominator with the denominator:
Number of electrons = (2.4 C/s) * (1.6 x 10^19 C)

Now, let's calculate the result:

Number of electrons = 3.84 x 10^19 electrons

Therefore, approximately 3.84 x 10^19 electrons pass the given point in the wire in one second.
