Question:

If an electric field of magnitude 570 N C^-1 is applied in the copper wire, what is the acceleration experienced by the electron?

Options:

10⁷ m s^-2

10¹⁸ m s^-2.

10²⁰ m s^-2

10¹⁰ m s^-2

Correct Answer:

10¹⁰ m s^-2

Explanation:

F = ma ; F = eE

mass of electron : m = 9.1 x 10^-27 Kg

charge on electron : e = 1.6 x 10^-19 C

Electric Field : F = 570 N C^-1

a = 10¹⁰ m s^-2
