Problem 3.206

3.206.3.206 . A coil of radius r=25 cmr=25 \mathrm{~cm} wound of a thin copper wire of length l=500 ml=500 \mathrm{~m} rotates with an angular velocity ω=300\omega=300 rad/s about its axis. The coil is connected to a ballistic galvanometer by means of sliding contacts. The total resistance of the circuit is equal to R=21ΩR=21 \Omega. Find the specific charge of current carriers in copper if a sudden stoppage of the coil makes a charge q=10nCq=10^{\circ} \mathrm{nC} flow through the galvanometer.
