GIVEN
- Current = 0.4 A
- Duration of the electric bulb lights = 3 hours
TO FIND
- The amount of charge flowing through the circuit.
SOLUTION
Charge is given by Q and is calculated by the formula:
Q = I × t
Time has to calculated in seconds,
- t = 3×3600 = 10800 sec
Q = 0.4×10800 = 4320 C
- C is the Coulomb which is unit of charge.
✨Therefore, The amount of charge which flows through the circuit is found to be 4320 C
