As we learnt

 

Translatory motion of charge -

 

i=nqA

- wherein

n particles charge q pass per second per unit area , The current associated with cross-section area A

 

 

i = \frac{{Ne}}{t} = \frac{{({{10}^9})\,(1.6\,x\,{{10}^{ - 19}}\,C)}}{{{{10}^{ - 3}}}} = 1.6\,x\,{10^{ - 7}}\,A$ 
Þ  i = 0.16 m A.

            The current flows from B to A.

 


Option 1)

1.6 A

Option 2)

0.8 mA

Option 3)

0.16 mA

Option 4)

1.6 m
