Question

9. A current of 0.5A is drawn by a filament of an electric bulb for 10min. Find the amount of electric
charge that flows through the circuit.​

Answer 1

$\huge\mathsf{Solution:}$

Current=0.5A

Time=10 min=10×60=600 sec

I=Q/t

0.5=Q/600

Q=0.5×600

Q=300 C

$\huge\boxed{Charge=300 C}$

Answer 2

Answer:

The amount of electric charge that flows through the circuit is 300 C.

Explanation:

Given,

Current (i) drawn by a filament = 0.5 A

Time (t) = 10 minutes = 10* 60 sec = 600 seconds

To find: the amount of electric charge that flows through the circuit.

Solution:

Charge is equal to the product of current and time.

i.e Q = it

here, i = 0.5 A , t = 600 sec

Substituting the values,

Q = 0.5 * 600

or, Q = 300 coulomb

Therefore, The amount of electric charge that flows through the circuit is 300 C.
