A battery can supply a charge of 800 C. If a steady current 8.0 mA is drawn
calculate the time in which the cell will be discharged completely.
Answers
Answer:
1.0 × 10⁵ sec
Explanation:
Given :
Charge ( q ) = 800 C
Current ( I ) = 8.0 mA
We have find time ( t )
We know formula
i.e. Current = Charge / time
OR I = q / t
Putting the value here we get
8.0 mA = 800 / t
We know the 1 mA = 10⁻³ A
t = 800 / 8.0 × 10⁻³ sec
t = 100 × 10³ sec
t = 1.0 × 10⁵ sec
Thus we get answer 1.0 × 10⁵ sec .
More to know :
Current is nothing but flow of electrons .
To find current we have formula :
I = q / t
In the 1.0 × 10⁵ seconds the cell will be discharged completely.
Given that :
Charge (q) = 800 C
Current (I) = 8.0 mA
To Find :
Time in which the cell will be discharged completely.
Solution :
We know that :
★
Plug the given values in equation :
After putting the values we will get :
We also know that :
★
So,
Hence,
In the 1.0 × 10⁵ seconds the cell will be discharged completely.
