Question

A current of 0.4 flows through a conductor for 5 minutes . How much charge would have passed through the conductor

Answer 1

we know that

I (current) = q(charge)/t (time)

firstly convert 5 minutes into seconds

one minute is 60 seconds
five minute is 300 sec

apply the formula -

0.4 = q/300
0.4×300 = q
120 c ( coloumb) unit of charge is coloumb

Answer 2

Answer:

Charge passing through the conductor is 120 C.

Explanation:

I = 0.4 A

t = 5 min = 5 * 60 s = 300 s

Q = I * t

=> Q = 0.4 * 300

=> Q = 120 C.

So,

Charge passing through the conductor is 120 C.
