That is 6 amps. One coulomb passing a point once a second is defined as one amp. Take the number of coulombs that have passed the point and divide it by the time it took the charge to pass (in seconds) and you have the current in amps.

How long does it take at total charge of 10.0 C to pass through a cross-sectional area of a copper wire that carries a current of 3.1 A?

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?

When is static electricity come used?

Paint spraying cars: the paint particles are given a negative charge, and the car frame is given a positive charge, so the paint sprays out, and sicks to the car, and is attracted to all the hard- to reach areas Electrosatic precipitator; in coal fired power station theses are used to stop the dust particles reaching the atmosphere. Particles of ass pass through a charged grid, and becone charged. They then stick to plated either side of this grid, where they can be disposed of safely Photocopier; A charged drum is in the photocopier. Light is then shone through the paper, and whete ther is no print light hits the drum and it looses its charge. This leaves charge where there needs to be ink. Ink is the pulled onto the charged drum, and transfered onto paper Antistatic floors; to avoid static charges in hospital, the floors are made out of an antistatic material, so no charge can build up.

Which is faster to discharge or to charge a capacitor?

It depends on the amount of current available to charge or discharge. On the surface, I would say that you can discharge a capacitor faster than you can charge it, because the charge rate is limited by the current available in the power supply, while the discharge current could be quite high, because you could just apply a short circuit conductor around the capacitor. Of course, this could damage the capacitor. In truth, the equation of a capacitor is...dv/dt = i/C, which means that, given the same charge or discharge current, the rate of change of voltage would be the same.AnswerThe time taken to fully charge, or to fully discharge, a capacitor is given by the equation: time = 5 CR, where C represents its capacitance, in farads, and R represents the resistance of the circuit supplying the capacitor, in ohms. By 'fully charge', we mean bring the potential-difference across the capacitor's plates to the same value as the applied potential difference.If the external voltage source is replaced with a short circuit then, providing the resistance of the circuit hasn't changed, the discharge time will be exactly the same as the charging time. If the resistance is changed, then the same equation applies, but you need to insert the new value of resistance.

What is the definition for current intensity?

Current intensity refers to the amount of electric current flowing through a conductor in a given time, measured in amperes (A). It is a measure of the rate at which electric charge flows in a circuit.


How do cyclones receive their names?

Tropical cyclones are named base on what part of the ocean then form in. Different regions are governed by different agencies with their own policies. Each ocean basin has a predetermined list of names. Every time a new system reaches a given intensity it gets the next name on the list. The intensity require for naming depends on what country is in charge of assigning names in a given area.
