Question

A current of 10 A flows through a conductor for two minutes.Calculate the amount of charge passed through any area of cross section of the conductor.

Answer 1

Answer:

1200C

Explanation:

I=Q/t

10A=Q/120sec

Q=10A×120sec

Q=1200

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

Given :-

Current, I = 10 A

Time, t = 2 min = 2 × 60 = 120 seconds

To Find :-

Charge, Q = ??

Formula to be used :-

We know that,

I = Q/T

So, Q = I × T

Solution :-

Putting all the values, we get

Q = I × T

⇒ Q = 10 × 120

⇒ Q = 1200 Coulomb.

Hence, the amount of charge passed through any area of cross section of the conductor is 1200 Coulomb.
