CUET · PHYSICS · PYQ PAPER 2023

A polythene bag rubbed with a woollen jersey is found to have a negative charge of \( 3 \times 10^{-7} \text{ C} \). The number of electrons transferred from woollen jersey to the polythene would be :

  1. A \( 1.875 \times 10^{13} \)
  2. B \( 1.875 \times 10^{12} \)
  3. C \( 1.875 \times 10^{10} \)
  4. D \( 1.875 \times 10^{-12} \)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \( 1.875 \times 10^{12} \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( n = \frac{Q}{e} \) \( n = \frac{3 \times 10^{-7} \text{ C}}{1.6 \times 10^{-19} \text{ C/electron}} \) \( n = 1.875 \times 10^{12} \text{ electrons} \)
