A charge of 240C flows through a wire in 3 minutes. Find the electric current flowing through it.

Here is your answer

I= q/t (in SI units )

Here

q= 240 c

t= 3 mins= 3×60 secs = 180 secs

So,

I= q/t= 240/180

I= 1.33 A (amperes)

HOPE IT IS USEFUL

Use this equation:

Q = IT

Rearrange for I

I = Q/T

Substitute in the values:

I = 240/3

I = 80

The electric current is 80 amps.

Hope This Helps You!

Good Luck (:

Have A Great Day ^-^
