a current of 0.6 A is drawn by a filament of an electric bulb for 5 minutes.find the amount of electric charge that flows through the circuit
Answers
Answer:
5×60seconds = 300s
current = charge / time
0.6 = Q/ 300
Q = 300×0.6
Q = 180c
hence, the amount of electric charge that flows through the circuit is 180.
We get the amount of electric charge that flows through the circuit as 180 Coulomb.
Given,
Current = 0.6 A
Time for which current flows = 5 minutes
To Find,
The amount of electric charge that flows through the circuit
Solution,
We know that,
Charge = Current x Time (in seconds)
Q = I x T
Where Q is the charge, I is the current and T is the time
Time is given to us in minutes, we need to first convert it into seconds
T = 5 minutes
1 minute = 60 seconds
T = 5 x 60 seconds
T = 300 seconds
I = 0.6 A
Q = 0.6 x 300
Q = 180 Coulomb
Hence, we get the amount of electric charge that flows through the circuit as 180 Coulomb.
