Answer:
3a. 240 C
3b. 3666.67 A
Explanation:
3a. Determination of the charge.
Current (I) = 2 A
Time (t) = 120 s
Charge (Q) =?
The charge, current and time are related by the following equation:
Charge (Q) = current (I) × time (t)
Q = It
With the above formula, we can obtain the charge as follow:
Current (I) = 2 A
Time (t) = 120 s
Charge (Q) =?
Q = It
Q = 2 × 120
Q = 240 C
Thus, the charge is 240 C
3b. Determination of the current
We'll begin by converting 220 KC to C. This can be obtained as follow:
1 KC = 1000 C
Therefore,
220 KC = 220 KC × 1000 C / 1 KC
220 KC = 220000 C
Next, we shall express 1 minute in second. This is shown below:
1 min = 60 s
Finally, we shall determine the current. This can be obtained as follow:
Charge (Q) = 220000 C
Time (t) = 60 s
Current (I) =?
Q = It
220000 = I × 60
Divide both side by 60
I = 220000 / 60
I = 3666.67 A
Thus, the current flowing through the bulb is 3666.67 A
