Question

Hola ✌️✌️


A current of 0.5 A flows through a wire for 6 minutes. How much charge would have passed through the wire? A) 300 C
B) 30 C
C) 180 C
D) 1800 C


✌️‼️✌️

Answer 1

Answer:

current=0.5A

time=6min=6*60=360sec

charge=time*current

=360*0.5

=180C

Answer 2

$\huge{\mathfrak{answer}}$

Given :

• Current flowing, I = 0.5 A
• Time for which current is flowing, t =

6 min

To find :

• Charge passed through the wire, Q

= ?

Formula required :

• Relation between Current (1), Charge (Q) and time (t)

1=Q/t

[ Where I is in Ampere, Q is in Coulomb, and t is in seconds ]

• Current is defined as the rate of low of Charge.
• Si unit of Current : Ampere
• Sl unit of Charge : Coulomb.

Solution :

Converting time given in min into

seconds

➡️ t= 6 min

➡️ t = 6 x 60 sec

➡️ t = 360 sec

Calculating charge through the wire

Using formula

➡️ I = Q/t

➡️- 0.5 = Q/ 360

➡️- Q = 0.5 x 360

➡️- Q = 180 C

therefore,

• Charge passed through the wire is

180 Coulomb.

Hence,

OPTION (C) 180 C is correct.

Hope it helps you ☺️
