Question

300 C charge passes through the cross section A of the conductor in 5 minutes as shown.​

Calculate the current flowing in the conductor.​

• A. 1 A
• B. 2 A
• C. 0.5 A
• D. 5 A

Answer 1

The correct option is A 1 A

Current is the rate of flow of charge through a cross-section.
$I=\frac{q}{t}$
$I=\frac{300C}{5min}$
$I=\frac{300C}{5\times 60s}$
$I=1A$
