A current of 5 A flows for 2 hours and 15 minutes. Calculate the total charge passed.

Step 1: Calculate the total time in seconds. t₁ = 2 hours × 3600 s1 hour + 15 minutes × 60 s1 minute; t₁ = 7200 s + 900 s = 8100 s Step 2: Calculate the total charge (Q₁) passed. Q₁ = I × t₁ = 5 A × 8100 s = 4050

Solved: A current of 5 A flows for 2 hours and 15 minutes…

Step 1: Calculate the total time in seconds.

t_1 = 2 \text{ hours} \times \frac{3600 \text{ s}}{1 \text{ hour}} + 15 \text{ minutes} \times \frac{60 \text{ s}}{1 \text{ minute}}

t_1 = 7200 \text{ s} + 900 \text{ s} = 8100 \text{ s}

Step 2: Calculate the total charge ( $Q_1$ ) passed.

A current of 5 A flows for 2 hours and 15 minutes. Calculate the total charge passed.
