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.
