Question

a current of 1.5A is drawn by a bulb for 5 minutes . find the amount of electric charge that flows through the circuit​

Answer 1

Answer:

The electric charge that flows through the circuit is 1800 C.

Explanation:

Given that,

Current, I = 1.5 A

Time, t = 20 min = 1200 s

We need to find the electric charge that flows through the circuit. The electric charge per unit time is called electric current. It is given by :

\begin{gathered}I=\dfrac{q}{t}\\\\q=I\times t\\\\q=1.5\ A\times 1200\ s\\\\q=1800\ C\end{gathered}

I=

t

q

q=I×t

q=1.5 A×1200 s

q=1800 C

So, the electric charge that flows through the circuit is 1800 C. Hence, this is the required solution.
