Homework Statement


An 80 watt light bulb has a current of .5A running through it. What is the charge through the lightbulb after 1 hour?


Homework Equations


i=Q/T


The Attempt at a Solution


For this question is the wattage irrelevant because we know current and time?

We would just use i*T=Q?

Yeah, I don't know why it gives you the wattage. You can get the the resistance is 320 just for fun. :p
