The quantity of a charge that will be transferred by a current flow of \( 20 \) A over \( 1 \) hour \( 30 \)
minutes period is

  1. A \( 10.8 \times 10^{3} C \)
  2. B \( 10.8 \times 10^{4} C \)
  3. C \( 5.4 \times 10^{3} \mathrm{C} \)
  4. D \( 1.8 \times 10^{4} \mathrm{C} \)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \( 10.8 \times 10^{4} C \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, \(I=20 \mathrm{~A} ; \mathrm{t}=1\) hour 30 minutes \(=90\) minutes \(=90 \times 60\) seconds
Therefore, charge transferred
\(Q=I \times t=20 \times 90 \times 60=108 \times 10^{3} \mathrm{C}\)
Thus, \(Q=10.8 \times 10^{4} \mathrm{C}\)
