if an averge current of 5.5
Amp is passing through aconductor for 2 min . what is the charge in Coulomb ( C ) crosstional areaed any cross sec
To calculate the charge (Q) in Coulombs (C) passing through a conductor, you need to know the current (I) in Amperes (A) and the time (t) in seconds (s). In this case, the current is given as 5.5 Amps, and the time is given as 2 minutes.
First, convert the time from minutes to seconds. Since 1 minute is equal to 60 seconds, multiply 2 minutes by 60 to get 120 seconds.
Now, you can use the formula:
Q = I * t
Substituting the values:
Q = 5.5 A * 120 s
Q = 660 C
Therefore, the charge passing through the conductor in 2 minutes is 660 Coulombs.
