Current is defined as the rate of charge flowing a point every second. Having a current of 1 Ampere signifies 1 Coulomb is flowing in a circuit every second. It is measured by the use of an ammeter which is positioned in series to the component to be measured. The current in the problem is calculated as follows:

I = 2.0 x 10^-4 C / 5.0 x 10^-5 s
I = 4 A

Q= I×t

Where Q is charge in Coulombs C,

I is current in Amperes A,

t is in seconds s.

The rate of current flow is defined as the charge passing through a point in the circuit per second.

Rearranging formula gives I=[tex] \frac{Q}{t} [/tex]

⇒I = [tex] \frac{2.0*10^-4}{5.0*10^-5} [/tex] = 4 Amperes

∴ current flow = 4.0×10^0 A
