A high voltage transmission line of diameter 2.55 cm and length 3.42167 km carries a steady current of 2 x103 A. If the conductor is copper with a free charge density of 7 x 1028 electrons/m3, how long (in seconds ) does it take one electron to travel the full length of the cable? (e = 1.6 x 10−19 C).For this problem use scientific/exponential notation to represent your answer.
