Question

In a wire, 0.5 C charge flows in 0.5 sec.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

Current through a cross section is given as the rate of flow of charge.
$I=\frac{Q}{t}$
Given, $Q=0.5C$ and $t=0.5s$
$I=\frac{0.5}{0.5}$
$I=1A$
