Question:

A current of 0.1 A is drawn by a filament of an electric bulb for 15 minutes. What is the amount of electric charge that flows through the circuit ?

Options:

86 C

$\frac{1}{900}$ C

90 C

18 C

Correct Answer:

90 C

Explanation:

Current : I = 0.1 A;

Time : t = 15 minutes = 15 x 60 seconds

  = 900 seconds

Charge : q = ?

We know : $I = \frac{q}{t}$

$0.1 A = \frac{q}{900 s}$

$q = 90 C$
