(a) Will the net current be (1) to the right, (2) to the left, (3) zero, or (4) none of the preceding?
(b) In 4.5 s, 6.7 C of electrons flow to the right at the same time that 8.3 C of protons flow to the left. What are the direction and magnitude of the current due to the protons?
(c) What are the direction and magnitude of the current due to the electrons?
(d) What are the direction and magnitude of the total current?
