Answer:

the charge generated in the circuit​ is 240 C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

current flowing in the circuit, I = 2A

time of current flow, t = 2 minutes = 2 x 60s = 120 s

The current flowing through a given circuit is defined as the quantity of charge flowing through the circuit in a given time.


I = (Q)/(t) \\\\Q = I t

where;

Q is the charge flowing in the circuit

Q = 2 x 120

Q = 240 C

Therefore, the charge generated in the circuit​ is 240 C.
