If a battery sends a current of 10A through a circuit for one hour how many coulombs will flow through the circuit?
One coulomb is the amount of electric charge transported in one second by a steady current of one ampere, so 10 x 1 x 60 x 60, which equals 360,000.
Current in amperes is coulombs per second, so 2 coulombs per second is 2 amperes.
There must be a current through the bulb in order for it to glow.
3 Ampere
If at battery,parallel circuit shorts then equivalent resistance of circuit becomes approximately 0 Ohms,and therefore as current follows low resistance path infinite amount of current due to low resistance will flow through the wire so,entire parallel circuit will short out,but wire will burn and battery may get damaged.

72 coulombs in 24 seconds is 3 amperes.One ampere is one coulomb per second.
Current in amperes is coulombs per second, so 2 coulombs per second is 2 amperes.
The battery is the power source of the circuit. It supplies current to the circuit and the circuit is simply a path for the current to follow. When you remove the current (battery), the path still exists but there is no current going through it.
A flow of 7400 coulombs in 85 seconds represents a current of 87 amperes. One ampere is one coulomb per second, so divide 7400 by 85.
A battery contains a charge of electrons. When these electrons leave the battery and travel through a circuit that is described as current.
it is necessary to connect both the terminals of a battery to a circuit for current to flow through it..!!
No current flows through the battery. There is a current through the external circuit. I = E/R = 9/10 = 0.9 amperes.
A electrical from a battery is the flow of elecrons through a circuit in the opposite dirrection to the current flow. This current flow also happens inside the battery between the plates.
A circuit is complete whenever current can flow from the battery (or what is producing current), through the circuit, and back to the battery. A complete circuit could contain just a battery and one wire. An incomplete circuit could be a battery with a wire attached to just one terminal, because current cannot flow all the way through the circuit in this case (i.e. cannot flow through the battery). note: not all elements in a circuit may have current flow in a complete circuit. For instance, a light bulb may be shorted but you still have a complete circuit.
The battery provides the current and the energy; the lamp consumes the energy when the current goes through it; the copper wire conducts the current; and the switch lets you close or open the circuit (so that current passes, or doesn't pass, through).

A circuit with a 2 ohm resistor and a 4 ohm resistor in series with a 12 volt battery will have 2 amps flowing through each resistor. The current is the same in each resistor because they are in series, and a series circuit has constant current throughout.
Electricity can flow in an electric circuit by a battery. The battery creates electrons, which flow through the wire, and then go into a light bulb. (That is how a light bulb in a circuit lights up.) A series circuit is a circuit with one wire that electrons can flow through. Also, there can be more than one light bulb connecting to the same wire. A parallel circuit is a circuit with light bulbs that have their own wire.ClarificationThe above answer, unfortunately, perpetuates the myth that current leaves a battery, and finds its way around a circuit. This is not the case at all. It is the load that 'draws' the current from the battery and it is the load that determines the size of that current.
