Suppose that a particle accelerator is used to move two beams of particles in opposite directions. In a particular region, electrons move to the right at 6020 m/s and protons move to the left at 1681 m/s. The particles are evenly spaced with 0.0476 m between electrons and 0.0662 m between protons. Assuming that there are no collisions and that the interactions between the particles are negligible, what is the magnitude of the average current in this region

Explanation:

Velocity of electron = 6020 m/s

Velocity of proton = 1681 m/s

Electron space = 0.0476 m

Proton space = 0.0662 m

e = Charge of particle =

Number of electrons passing per second

Number of protons passing per second

Current due to electrons

Current due to protons

Total current

The average current is

r=rho l/a where a is the area, l is the length and rho is resistivity so the greater the area the lesser the resistance thats why the earth pin is thicker bcos current follow the shortest path, so less resistive .
