Here we are given 3.1 amperes of current and are asked to find the time it takes 10 coulombs of charge to pass a given point. First ask yourself how many coulombs are passing a given point in one second. If we have 3.1 amperes of current, we have 3.1 coulombs of charge passing any given point in one second. If it takes 1 second for 3.1 coulombs of charge to pass, how long will it take for 10C of charge to pass?

A wire carries a current of 6.0 amperes How much charge passes a point in the wire in 120 seconds?
720 C
Can you have current without voltage?
Sure - an unconnected power supply of any kind - a battery is + at one end and - at the other.
Can capacitors charge on an open circuit?
No. Capacitors need current to charge or discharge. In an open circuit, current is impossible, so they will stay at the last known charge, depending on the amount of leakage current.
How much current flows through a circuit if 2 coulombs of charge flows each second?
Current in amperes is coulombs per second, so 2 coulombs per second is 2 amperes.
What current is flowing if 0.67 c of charge pass a point in 0.30s?
Current = charge / time....so 0.67 c / 0.30 s = 2.23 A
In direct current charges carries have a drift velocity but in alternating current there is no net velocity of the charge carriers. Explain why?
In direct current the charge carries always flow in the same direction, while in alternating current they change direction repeatedly, meaning overall there is no net direction.
Which part of a circuit is a current?
Current is the flow of electric charge or the rate of the flow of an electric charge through a conductor.
what is the charge of X in XC2H3O2?
If you know the electric current, the flow of electric charge through an object, traveling through a circuit and how long the current is applied, you can calculate electrical charge using the equation for current Q = It in which Q is the total charge measured in coulombs, I is current in amps, and t is time that the ..
What does an electric current Carry?
Electric current carries electric charge. Actually to say it in the right sense, we have to say that electric current is the rate of flow of electric charges
Do the conductors charge when a current is passed through them?
yes
The neutron carries a positive electric charge while the what carries a negative charge?
I think you're confused. A neutron has no charge. An atom, however, is made up of negatively charged Electrons, Positively charged Protons, and No-charge Neutrons.
What is the continuous flow of charge through a material.?
Electric Current.
A wire carries a current of 6.0 amperes How much charge passes a point in the wire in 120 seconds?
720 C
A partical in the atomic nucleus that carries no charge?
The neutron is the particle in the atomic nucleus that carries no charge.
This part of an atom carries a positive charge?
The proton of an atom carries the positive charge.
What is current elctricity?
current electricity is the flow of charge is called the current and it is the rate at which electric charges pass through a conducter
Is electric current stored anywhere?
Electric current is the movement of charge around a circuit and so cannot really be stored, however, the energy which it carries is stored in most things.
