Calculate the time taken for the charges to complete the circuit if the total charges were 5000 Coulomb and the current of the circuit was 20 Amp?
Correct answer: A. 250 seconds
- A. 250 seconds
- B. 350 seconds
- C. 400 seconds
- D. 500 seconds
Explanation
Current can be found by dividing the charge in Coulombs by the time taken in seconds, (5000/20) hence time taken is 250 seconds. I = Q/t = 5000/20= 250 s

About Current Electricity
Steady current relates charge flow to potential difference, resistance and resistivity, including how temperature changes a conductor's resistance. Sources with internal resistance have terminal voltage below their emf when delivering current, and maximum power output occurs under a specific load condition rather than at zero resistance.
