Answer : Current flowing, I = 2 Ampere

Explanation :

It is given that,

Charge passing through a wire, q = 240 coulombs

Time taken to pass the charge, t = 2 minutes = 120 seconds

Electric current is defined as the ratio of the electric charge divided by time taken to pass the charge.

Mathematically, it can be written as :

I=\dfrac{q}{t}

Putting the value of q and t we get:

I=\dfrac{240\ C}{120\ s}

I = 2 Ampere

So, the current passing through the wire is 2 Amps.

Hence, this is the required solution.

Korvikt [17]

You have learned your lesson well, Suhay. Your statement is correct.

The light rays from the fish BEND when they flow out of the water into the air. But our primitive brain still believes that the light rays flow STRAIGHT from the fish. The result is that the fish does not APPEAR to be at that place where it really is.
