How many electrons are present in that amount of charge? electrons If a delicate manufacturing process can be damaged by an electrical discharge greater than 10 what is the maximum number of steps that any worker should be alowed to take before touching the e Previous e check Answer ONext Ext terms of use

Explanation / Answer

charge collectd per step -50 nC

charge collected in 15 steps = -50*15 = 750 nC

charge of each electron = 1.6 e-19 C

number of electrons present in the charge = 750e-9/1.6e-19 = 468.75 e+10

1012 electrons   = 1.6e-19 *1.0e+12 = 1.6e-7 C

charge collected per step = 15.0 e-9C

maximum number of steps allowed = 1.6e-7/15.0e-9 = 106 steps.
