Question

240 c of charge passed through a conductor for 60 seconds.Calculate the current produced​

Answer 1

ANSWER

A current of 1 ampere is said to flow when 1 coulomb of charge passes a given point in 1 sec.

Charge flowing through a conductor in one second is given as charge=current×time. It is given that the current through the conductor is 1.6 mA, that is, 1.6×10

−3

A

Therefore, charge =1.6×10

−3

×1=1.6×10

−3

C.

Number of electrons passing through the conductor in one second is given as

e

Q

=

1.6×10

−19

1.6×10

−3

=10

16

Hence, the number of electrons passing through the conductor in 1 second is 10

16

I hope it helps

Answer 2

Answer:GIVEN

charge=240c time= 60 s

current=charge/time=240/60=4 A
