Question

If the battery of your phone can provide 2 mA of current to your phone and holds a charge of 130 C, how long will it take a fully charged phone to die?

Answer 1

Answer: 65000 seconds

Explanation:

Given that,

Current (I) = 2 mA

(Since 1 mA = 1 x 10^-3A

2 mA = 2 x 10^-3A)

Charge (Q) = 130 C

Time taken for a fully charged phone to die (T) = ?

Recall that the charge is the product of current and time taken.

i.e Q = I x T

130C = 2 x 10^-3A x T

T = 130C / (2 x 10^-3A)

T = 65000 seconds (time will be in seconds because seconds is the unit of time)

Thus, it will take a fully charged phone 65000 seconds to die
