Question

In a wire, $0.5C$ charge flows in $0.5sec$.The magnitude of the current flowing through the conductor will be:

• A. 1 A
• B. 0.8 A
• C. 0.025 A
• D. 0.5 A

Answer 1

The correct option is A 1 A

$\text{Current is defined as charge flowing per unit time and is given by}$

$i$ = $\frac{q}{t}$

$\Rightarrow$ $i$ = $\frac{0.5C}{0.5s}$

$\Rightarrow$ $i$ = $1A$
