Question

If a charge of 420C flow through a conducting wire in5 min what is the value of the current?

Answer 1

Given :-

• Charge (Q) = 420 C
• Time (t) = 5 min

To Find :-

• The value of the current.

Solution :-

First minute convert into second.

⟶ Time = 5 min

⟶ Time = 5 × 60

⟶ Time (t) = 300 seconds

As we know that,

$\blue{\bold{I = \frac{Q}{t}}}$ $\red\bigstar$

Here,

• I = Electric Currect
• Q = Electric charge
• t = Time

Units,

• I = Ampere, A
• Q = Coulomb, C
• t = seconds, s

[ Substitute the value in the formula ]

⟶ I = 420/300

⟶ I = 42/30

⟶ I = 1.4 A $\green\bigstar$

Therefore,

The value of the current is 1.4 Ampere.
