Question

The current is 0.08A calculate the amounts of charge passing a point in the circuit in 2 minutes

Answer 1

12C should be the answer!

Answer 2

Charge is 9.6 Coulombs

Step-by-step explanation:

- From definition of current, current is rate of flow of charge in a circuit

`current = \triangle(charge) \\ \\ current = (charge)/(time) \\ \\ { \boxed{ I = (Q)/(t) }}`

- From the question above,

• I is 0.08A
• Q is ?? (needed)
• t is 2 mins = (2 × 60) = 120 s

`0.08 = (Q)/(120) \\ \\ Q = 120 * 0.08 \\ \\ Q = 9.6 \: C`
