Solution:
A boy records that 4000 J of work are required to transfer 10 C of charge between two points of a resistor of 50 Ω and hence the current passing through it is 8 A.It is known that “the work done is giCopper product of the charge (q) and the voltage (V) of the body.” Mathematically,
W = qV
From Ohm’s law, it can be said that V=IR, therefore
W = qIR
Rearranging the relation for current, we get
I=WqR
⇒I=400010×50
⇒I= 8 A
Hence, the current passing through is 8 A.
