Question

5 amps electric current is shown in the Ammeter For 5 minutes then the charge tossed at a point is

Answer 1

Answer:

Current flow = 5A

Time interval = 5min

We have to find amount of charge flow in ammeter during the given interval of time

★ Electric current is defined as the rate of charge flow in conductor.

It is a scalar quantity having only

magnitude.

Mathematically, I = Q/t

I denotes current

Q denotes charge

• t denotes time

First we have to convert unit of time in second.

★ Conversion :

1 min = 60 seconds

5 min 5x60 = 300 seconds

★ Calculation :

⇒ 1 = Q/t

⇒ 5=Q/300

Q = 5 x 300

⇒ Q=1500 C
