a collection of molecules holding a charge of 14 coulomb all pass through a hole in 4 seconds. what is the current (in amps) through the hole?

Respuesta :

The current that passes through the hole is 3.5A

What is current?

  • The rate at which electrons flow past a point in a complete electrical circuit is defined as current. At its most fundamental, current = flow. An ampere (AM-pir), also known as an amp, is the international unit for measuring current.
  • Although current is the flow of electrons, current and electron flow in opposite directions. Electrons flow from negative to positive while current flows from positive to negative. The number of electrons passing through a conductor's cross-section in one second determines current.

Here given ,

Charge = 14 coulomb

Time = 4 sec

We have to current,

I = Q/t

Where Q is the charge and t is time in seconds.

By substituting the values,

I = 14/4

I = 3.5A

Therefore the current through the hole is 3.5A.
