The Hall affect is used to measure the carrier density of a thin sheet of electrons. When a current of 8.0 A flows through the 12-mm thickness electron sheet, a magnetic field of 0.75 T perpendicular to the sheet produces a voltage of 0.53 mV across the width of the sheet. What is the carrier density in the electron sheet?
