How many coulombs are represented by these amounts of electrons:
(a) 6.482 × 1017 (b) 1.24 × 1018
(c) 2.46 × 1019 (d) 1.628 × 10 20
Chapter 1, Solution 1
(a) q = 6.482x1017 x [-1.602x10-19 C] = -0.10384 C
(b) q = 1. 24x1018 x [-1.602x10-19 C] = -0.19865 C
(c) q = 2.46x1019 x [-1.602x10-19 C] = -3.941 C
(d) q = 1.628x1020 x [-1.602x10-19 C] = -26.08 C
Chapter 1, Problem 2.
Determine the current flowing through an element if the charge flow is given by
(a) q(t ) = (3t + 8) mC
(b) q(t ) = ( 8t 2 + 4t-2) C
( )
(c) q (t ) = 3e -t − 5e −2 t nC
(d) q(t ) = 10 sin 120π t pC
(e) q(t ) = 20e −4 t cos 50t μC
Chapter 1, Solution 2

Find the charge q(t) flowing through a device if the current is:
(a) i (t ) = 3A, q(0) = 1C
(b) i ( t ) = ( 2t + 5) mA, q(0) = 0
(c) i ( t ) = 20 cos(10t + π / 6) μA, q(0) = 2 μ C
(d) i (t ) = 10e −30t sin 40tA, q(0) = 0
Chapter 1, Solution 3
(a) q(t) = ∫ i(t)dt + q(0) = (3t + 1) C
(b) q(t) = ∫ (2t + s) dt + q(v) = (t 2 + 5t) mC
(c) q(t) = ∫ 20 cos (10t + π / 6 ) + q(0) = (2sin(10t + π / 6) + 1) μ C
