a charge of 30. coulombs passes through a 24-ohm resistor in 6.0 seconds. what is the current through the resistor? (1) 1.3 a (3) 7.5 a (2) 5.0 a (4) 4.0 a

Respuesta :

As I = Q/t (charge/time) the answer is 5a.

30/6 = 5

The current through the resistor is 5.0 A.

To calculate the current through resistor we have to apply the formula for current intensity.

Given:

The charge is [tex]Q=30[/tex].

Time is [tex]t=6.0\;\rm seconds[/tex].

What is current?

  • The current is ratio of charge and time.
  • The current is represent by [tex]i[/tex].

Write the formula to calculate the current.

[tex]i=\dfrac{Q}{t}\\i=\dfrac{30}{6}\\i=5\;\rm A[/tex]

Thus, the current through the resistor is 5.0 A.
