An electric current of 6 A flows through a circuit for 10 minutes. Write the following steps in sequential order to find the electrons that would pass through the circuit in 10 minutes.
Note the given data about current (i) and time (t).
The number of electrons (n) flowing through the circuit can be found using, Q = ne (2)
(c) Find the charge (Q) that flows through the circuit using , Q = it (1)
(d) Equate (1) and (2), to find n.

Options

A. a d b c
B. a b c d
C. b c a d
D. a c b d

Answer

D

Explanation

(i) Note the given data about current (i) and time (t).
(ii) Find the charge (Q) that flows through the circuit using,
Q = it (1)
(iii) The number of electrons (n) flowing through the circuit can be found using,
Q = ne (2)
(iv) Equate (1) and (2), to find n.
