1) Charge is measured in coulombs, where 1 coulomb is equal to approximately 6.25 x 10^18 electrons.
2) Electric current is the rate at which charge flows through a circuit. It is measured in amperes and calculated by dividing the total charge by the time taken.
3) Current can be dangerous, with as little as 6 milliamperes being enough to stop a person's heart. Fuses and circuit breakers are used to prevent too much current in a circuit.
ANURAG TYAGI CLASSES (ATC) is an organisation destined to orient students into correct path to achieve
success in IIT-JEE, AIEEE, PMT, CBSE & ICSE board classes. The organisation is run by a competitive staff comprising of Ex-IITians. Our goal at ATC is to create an environment that inspires students to recognise and explore their own potentials and build up confidence in themselves.ATC was founded by Mr. ANURAG TYAGI on 19 march, 2001.

(Problem Set Charge Question #1)
A hair dryer has 7.5 × 1021 electrons passing through it.
How much charge is in the hair dryer?
Charge = number of e-
6.25 x 1018 e-
= 7.5 x 1021 e-
6.25 x 1018 e-
= 1.2 x 103 C
.: the charge is 1.2 x 103 C
10. Current
A fuse (or circuit breaker) is a connector in a circuit that is
designed to open the circuit if there is too much current.

12. Current
Current is dangerous and can seriously harm a person.
It only takes 6 mA to reach the heart to kill a person.

(Problem Set Current Question #4)
If 240 C of charge passes a point in a circuit in 300 s,
what is the current through that point in the circuit?
I = Q
T
= 240 C
300 s
= 0.8 A
.: the current is 0.8 A
