Question

How much charge flows through a wire carrying 2.5 A of current in 20 minutes?

Answer 1

hi mate

here is your answer

Given, Current= 2.5 Ampere(I)

Time = 20 minutes

= 60×20= 1200 seconds.(t)

Charge = Q (let)

So we know, Q = I ×t

Q= 1200× 2.5

=> Q = 3000 Coulomb (C)

hope it helps

Answer 2

Answer:

3000 Coulomb of charge flows through the wire.

Explanation:

We will use the following relation to answer this question,

$Q=It$      (1)

Where,

Q=charge flowing through a wire

I=the current carried by the wire

t=time during which the current flows

From the question we have,

The current carried by the wire(I)=2.5A

The time during which the current flows(t)=20minutes=1200 seconds

By inserting the values of "I" and "t" in equation (1) we get;

$Q=2.5\times 1200$

$Q=3000 \ Coulomb$

3000 Coulomb of charge flows through the wire.
