Answer:

I = 3 Amp

Explanation:

Current in a Conductor

The electric current that moves through a conductor is defined as the charge Q that passes through it per unit time.

[tex]\displaystyle I=\frac{Q}{t}[/tex]

The SI unit for the current is the Ampere. One ampere is the current that flows when one coulomb of charge passes a point in a circuit in one second.

It's known that a charge of Q=15 C passes a point in a circuit in 5 seconds, thus the current is:

[tex]\displaystyle I=\frac{15\ C}{5\ s}[/tex]

I = 3 Amp

The current in the circuit is 3 A.

The current in the circuit can be calculated using the formula below.

Formula:

  • C = Q/t............... Equation 1

Where:

  • C = Current in the circuit
  • Q = Charge passing through the circuit
  • t = time.

From the question,

Given:

  • Q = 15 C
  • t = 5.0 s

Substitute these values into the equation.

  • C = 15/5
  • C = 3 A

Hence, the current in the circuit is 3 A.
