Answer:

277 s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

  • Electric current (I): 202.0 mA = 202.0 × 10⁻³ A = 0.2020 A = 0.2020 C/s
  • Transported charge (C): 56.0 Coulombs
  • Elapsed time (t): to be determined

We can find the elapsed time using the following expression.

I = C/t

t = C/I

t = 56.0 C/(0.2020 C/s)

t = 277 s

It took 277 seconds.
