Question

Calculate the current supplied by a cell if the amount of charge passing through the cell in 4 seconds

is 12 C? (3A)​

Answer 1

We know that current (I) = Charge (Q) / Time(t)

So,

We have

• Time (t) = 4 seconds

• Charge = 12 C

• Current (I) = Q/t = 12/4 = 3 Amperes

$\large\bold{\mathtt{SOLUTION}}$

☯ Electric current is defined as charge per unit time .

▶Charge = 12 coulomb

▶Time = 4 seconds

$\sf \:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:{\mathtt{\red{Electric\:Charge\:=\: \dfrac{Charge}{Time}}}}$

$\sf \:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:{\mathtt{\red{Electric\:Charge\:=\: \dfrac{12}{4}}}}$

$\sf \:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:{\boxed{\red{Electric\:Charge\:=\: 3\:Ampere}}}$
