Question

When $1$coulomb of charge flows through any cross-section of a conductor in $1$ second then

Answer 1

Step 1: Given data

Charge flowing through a conductor, $\mathrm{Q}=1\mathrm{C}$

Time, $\mathrm{t}=1\mathrm{s}$

Step 2: Formula used

Current passing through a conductor is given by,

$\mathrm{I}=\frac{\mathrm{Q}}{\mathrm{t}}$

Step 3: Calculation

Now putting the value of $\mathrm{Q}$ and $\mathrm{t}$, we get

$\begin{array}{rcl}\mathrm{I}& =& \frac{1}{1}\\ & =& 1\mathrm{A}\end{array}$

Hence, $1A$ of current flows through the conductor, when $1C$ of charge flows in $1s$ through the conductor.
