Question

A charge of 30C flows in a wire in 1 min. Calculate current in the wire.

Answer 1

Answer:

Electric charge (Q) = 30c

Time taken = 1 min  = 60 seconds

I = Q/t

I = 30/60

l = 1/2

l = 0.5 ampere

Answer 2

Answer:

The current in the wire is $i=0.5A$

Explanation:

Given that,

A charge of magnitude 30C Flows in wire for a time period of 1 minute and we are required to find the current in the wire.

First,we shall write the data in symbolical form

$q=30C\\t=1min=60s$

The current in wire is defined as the ratio of charge flowing through the wire in a given time.Hence,it can be mathematically written as follows

$i=\frac{q}{t}$

Substituting the values of charge and time in the above relation,we get

$i=\frac{30}{60} =0.5A$

Therefore,the current in the wire is $i=0.5A$
