Q = 8/10
t = 4 s

Now current i = Q / t that means current=charge/time
i = (8/10)/4
i = 2/10;
i = 0.2 A

q =it.
=> i = q/t.
q = 8/10 = 0.8, t=4.
i = 0.8/4 = 0.2.A.

You are right @Prashant.

Thank you @Prashant.

Q = 8/10 = 0.8.

t = 4s.

I = Q/t.

= 0.8/4

= 0.2A.

Thank you @Jagadesh.

Yes q=i*t means charge=current*time.

So q=8/10 &t=4s.

So i=q/t=8/10/4=0.2 A.

@Prashant.

Good explanation, thank you.

Jagadesh said:   10 years ago
Current i = dq/dt.

Here the charge q = 8/10.

Time t = 4s.

Here as the charge is not changing with time.

Therefore the current equation becomes at instantaneous i = q/t.

i = (8/10)/4.

i = 8/40 = 2/10.

i = 0.2 A.
