Question

A charge of 150 Coulomb flows through a wire in one minutes. Find the electric current through it.​

Answer 1

I=Q/T

I=150/60

I=2.5A

THE CURRENT FLOWING TROUGH THE IS 2.5A

Answer 2

✬ Current = 2.5 Ampere ✬

Explanation:

Given:

• Charge is 150 coulomb.
• Time is 1 minute.

To Find:

• How much electric current is passed ?

Formula to be used:

• I = Q/T

Solution: Here we have

• I = current
• Q = charge
• T = time

Change the time into second.

• 1 minute = 60 seconds.

Now put the values on the formula

$\implies{\rm }$ I = Q/T

$\implies{\rm }$ I = 150/60

$\implies{\rm }$ I = 15/6

$\implies{\rm }$ I = 5/2

$\implies{\rm }$ I = 2.5

Hence, electric current flowing through wire is 2.5 A.

[ S.I unit of current is Ampere. It is denoted by A]

[ S.I unit of charge is coulomb. It is denoted by C]
