CSEC Physics · May/June 2011 · Paper 2 · Question 3(a)(iv)

Figure 1 shows a simple cell connected to a circuit.

In the circuit in Figure 1, if the current is steady at 0.1 A, calculate the charge that goes through the copper wire in 60 s.

This question uses a figure or table from the paper — you'll see it when you practise.
