Electric charge (Q) is defined as the product of electric current (I) and time (t): Q = I × t. The current given is I = 0.6 A. The time given is t = 10 minutes. This needs to be converted to seconds: 10 minutes × 60 seconds/minute = 600 seconds.
A current of 0·6 A is drawn by an electric bulb for 10 minutes. Which one of the following is the amount of electric charge that flows through the circuit?
