Q: A filament of electric bulb draws a current of 0.8A in 5 minutes. Find the amount of electric charge flowing through the circuit.
  • A. 240 C
  • B. 4 C
  • C. 40 C
  • D. 24 C
Correct Answer: Option A - Given, Current flowing in the filament = 0.8 A Time taken (t) = 5 minutes = 300 seconds Thus, the amount of electric charge (Q) = I x t = 0.8 × 300 = 240 C
A. Given, Current flowing in the filament = 0.8 A Time taken (t) = 5 minutes = 300 seconds Thus, the amount of electric charge (Q) = I x t = 0.8 × 300 = 240 C

Explanations:

Given, Current flowing in the filament = 0.8 A Time taken (t) = 5 minutes = 300 seconds Thus, the amount of electric charge (Q) = I x t = 0.8 × 300 = 240 C
