The problem involves a small sphere with a charge of 8.34 nC that is rotating in a circle at an angular speed of 116 π rad/s. The question seeks to determine the average current represented by this rotating charge.
The discussion is ongoing, with various participants exploring different interpretations of the problem. Some have provided insights into the necessary calculations, while others question the assumptions regarding units and conversions.
There is a focus on understanding the relationship between angular speed and the frequency of charge passing a point, as well as clarifying the units involved in the calculation of current.
xswtxoj said:Current is I (amps) where its charge(Q) / (t) times in secs. so 116/60?, is it 8.34x1e-9/ (116 pi/60)?
