... What current must flow if 0.24 coulombs is to be transferred ...

For a steady flow of charge through a surface, the current I in amperes can be calculated with the following equation:I = Q/t

 

where Q is the electric charge transferred through the surface over some time t. If Q and t are measured in coulombs and seconds respectively, I is in amperes.

 

 

 

 

Thus:

 

I = 0.24 coulombs / 15 msec

 

I = 0.24 coulombs / 15 * 10^-3 sec

 

I = 16 amps
