90 Columbus of charge is passing through a conductor in 4 minutes what is the electricity current through a conductor
Answers
Answer:
- Time. 4 . 60 = 240
Explanation:
90/240=0.3
Answer: The correct answer is 0.375 Ampere.
Explanation:
Total charge flows in a conductor Q = 90 Coulombs
Time taken in flowing charge t = 4 minutes
Electric Current is the rate of flow of charge in a conductor.
The SI Unit of electric current is the Ampere.
Current = = =Q/t
Here,
Q = 90 C
t = 4 minutes
t = 4 x 60 seconds
t = 240 seconds
So,
Current = = = 90/240 Ampere
Current = = 0.375 A
Thus, 0.375 A electric current passes through the conductor.
Note—Electrons are negatively charged particles hence when they move a number of charges moves and we call this movement of electrons as electric current.
Note—Conductors: these materials allow the free flow of electrons from one particle to another.
Conductors allow for charge transfer through the free movement of electrons.
