Question

A bulb draws a current of 0.20 A for 15 minutes. What is the amount of electric charge that flows through it?

• A. 200 C
• B. 300 C
• C. 182 C
• D. 180 C

Answer 1

The correct option is D 180 C

Electric current is defined as the rate of flow of electric charge through a cross section.
$I=\frac{Q}{t}$
$Q=It$
$Q=It$
$Q=0.2\times 15\times 60C$
$Q=180C$

The amount of electric charge that flows through the bulb is 180 C.
