Question:

For the given equation of charge $Q=3t^2+6t$, where Q is in coulomb and t is time in sec, the initial value of current is:

Options:

0 A

2 A

6 A

9 A

Correct Answer:

6 A

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (3) → 6 A

The current $I(t)$ is the rate of charge $Q(t)$ with respect to time,

$I(t)=\frac{dQ}{dt}=\frac{d}{dt}(3t^2+6t)=6t+6$

Now, Initially $t=0s$

$∴I(0)=6(0)+6=6A$
