Question

calculate the electric current in a circuit if 300 C of electric charge flows through it in 5 minutes at a uniform rate.​

Answer 1

Given :

• Total charge flown, Q = 300 C
• Total time, t = 5 min = 5 × 60s = 300 s

To Find :

• Current flowing through circuit, I = ?

Solution :

As, we have :

• Total charge flown, Q = 300 C
• Total time, t = 5 min = 5 × 60s = 300 s

So, to find current flowing through circuit, we know that :

$\bull \: \: \: \: \underline{ \boxed{ \pink{\bf I = \dfrac{Q}{t} } }} \: \pink{\dag}$

By substituting values :

$\sf : \implies I = \cancel{\dfrac{300 \: C}{300 \: s}} \\ \sf : \implies I = 1A \: \: \: \: \: \:$

$\underline{ \tt Hence, \: current = \pink{ \bf 1A}}$
