Given:

  • 40 coulombs
  • 10 seconds

To find:

  • The current

Formula:


\large\boxed{Formula: I= (Q)/(t)}

Note that:

  • I: Current
  • Q: Charge
  • t: Time

Solution:

  • Current is the flow of electrons around a circuit.
  • SI unit of current is Amperes or Amps
  • Symbol is ( A )

Let's solve!

The formula is given above.

Let's substitute the values according to the formula.

We'll have to divide the measure of charge by the given time.


I= (40)/(10)

Final answer:


\large\boxed{= 4 \: Amps \: (A)}

Hence, the current is 4 amps.
