The provided text reads: "a typical lightning bolt may transfer 10^20 electrons in a fraction of a second, developing a peak current of up to 10 kiloamperes." Using the value of the elementary charge of 1.6x10^-19 C We can estimate the total charge of the lightning bolt to be about * 1.6E1 C
1.6E4 C
1.6E10 C
1.6E20 C

It may seem strange that the selected velocity does not depend on either the mass or the charge of the particle. (for example, would the velocity of a neutral particle be selected by passage through this device? ) the explanation of this is that the mass and the charge control the resolution of the device--particles with the wrong velocity will be accelerated away from the straight line and will not pass through the exit slit. if the acceleration depends strongly on the velocity, then particles with just slightly wrong velocities will feel a substantial transverse acceleration and will not exit the selector. because the acc
