The discussion revolves around calculating the amount of charge passing through a lamp given two different current readings from ammeters. The original poster presents a calculation based on the sum of the currents and the time duration.
The discussion is active, with participants exploring the implications of the current readings and questioning the assumptions made in the original calculation. Some guidance has been provided regarding the application of circuit laws, but no consensus has been reached on the correct interpretation of the current flow.
There are indications of confusion regarding the setup of the circuit and the placement of the ammeters, as well as the rules against providing direct answers in the forum.
That's why I'm here for help.cnh1995 said:
Why do you think the meters show different currents?Kofyebs said:
Cuz they have different currents.cnh1995 said:
One meter shows 1.2A and other shows 1A. Where does the remaining current go?Kofyebs said:
I don't know. That's the question I got from my teacher. that's why I'm here for solutions.cnh1995 said:
Well, providing direct answers is against the rules here. Helpers will only provide hints. Where do you think the current splits? Which meter will show 1.2A and which one will show 1A? Think on these and previous questions.Kofyebs said:
I am here to find out if my equation is correct.cnh1995 said:
Q=I*t is always true.Kofyebs said:
This is not correct.Kofyebs said:
