calculate the amount of electric current flowing through a circuit of 250 coulomb of electric charge flows through the circuit for 20 seconds
Answers
Explanation:
charge(Q)=250 coulomb
time(t)=20 seconds
electric current(I)=?
According to the question(ATQ) :-
using formula,
I=Q/t
250/20= I
I=12.5 ampere
electric current = 12.5 ampere
Given:The circuit has an electric charge(Q)=250 coulomb
Time taken to flow(t)= 20 sec
To find The amount of electric current flowing through the circuit
Solution: One-ampere electric current can be defined as the charge of one-coulomb that flows through a circuit in one second. Another way it can be written as the rate at which charge flows through a circuit is the current.
Now from above, it is given that:
The circuit has an electric charge(Q)=250 coulomb
Time taken to flow(t)= 20 sec
As we know Current(I)=Charge(Q)/Time(t)
∴ The amount of electric current flowing through the circuit (I)
=(Electric charge flows through the circuit(Q))/(Time taken to flow(t))
=250/20 ampere
=12.5 ampere
Hence the amount of electric current flowing through the circuit (I) is 12.5ampere.
