a current of 5a is drawn by a filament of an electric bulb for 50 min.find the amount of electric charge .that flows thought the circuit
Answers
Given :
Current flow = 5A
Time interval = 50 min
To Find :
Amount of electric charge flows through the circuit
Solution :
❒ Electric current is defined as the rate of charge flow per unit time in conductor.
Mathematically, I = Q/t
- It is a scalar quantity having only magnitude.
- SI unit : A (ampere) or C/s
- Dimension formula : [A¹]
- Electric current is a fundamental physical quantity.
First of all we need to convert unit of time into second.
We know that, 1 min = 60 s
∴ 50 min = 50 × 60 = 3000 s
By substituting the given values;
➠ I = Q/t
➠ 5 = Q/3000
➠ Q = 3000 × 5
➠ Q = 15 × 10³ C
