View Full Version : Mass and speed of (current) electrons
If a direct current (100 Volt) and (5 Amp.) is supplying a (500 Watt) bulb.
How many electrons (how much mass) are moving and how fast?

Students are required to show effort and work.
Current is related to charge transfer. 1 Amp = 1 Coulomb/s, and one knows the charge per coulomb.

I am not a student, but do just need the result.
PS !
The resistance in the wire we can assume to be zero.
