To solve the problem step by step, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between current, charge, and time. Current (I) is defined as the amount of charge (Q) flowing through a conductor per unit time (t). The formula is given by: \[ I = \frac{Q}{t} \] Where: - \( I \) = Current in amperes (A) - \( Q \) = Charge in coulombs (C) ...
