If it takes 1 minute for 45c of charge to pass a point in an electric circuit, what is the current through the circuit?

To determine the current through the circuit, we can use the formula:

Current (I) = Charge (Q) / Time (t)

In this case, the charge is given as 45c and the time is given as 1 minute. However, it is important to note that the unit of time used in electrical calculations is usually seconds. Therefore, we need to convert 1 minute to seconds.

1 minute = 60 seconds

Now we can substitute the values into the formula:

Current (I) = 45c / 60s

Simplifying the equation:

Current (I) = 0.75 A

Therefore, the current through the circuit is 0.75 Amperes or 0.75 A.

Please note that the calculations assume a constant current flow and a direct current (DC) circuit.
