Question

calculate the current in a wire if 1500 C charge is passed through it in 5 minutes

Answer 1

The current in a wire if 1500 C charge is passed through it in 5 minutes is 5 Ampere.

An electric current is a stream of charged particles, such as electrons or ions, moving through an electrical conductor or space. It is measured as the net rate of flow of electric charge through a surface or into a control volume.

$Q=\frac{C}{T}$

where,

Q = amount of current

C = amount of charge = 1500 C

T = time period in seconds = 5 mins

Now putting the values in the formula we have,

$Q=\frac{1500}{300}$

$Q=\frac{1500}{3*60}$

$Q=\frac{1500}{300} \\Q=5 A$

Hence, the amount of current in the wire is 5 A.
