OK, so the equation linking current, charge and time is Current = charge/time. So if we substitute the figures for the first question, it is 0.005A = 2.00C/t (remember to convert all to SI units). Rearrange and we get: 

t=2.00C/0.005A= 400 seconds 
For the second question, we need to first convert the electrons to coulombs. So (1 electron is 1.609*10^-19 C), so 3.75x10^14 electrons is 0.0000603375 C. So now we apply the numbers to formula above. 

Time = 0.0000603375 C /60.0A = 0.000001005625 seconds.

The time taken for the given quantity of charge to pass through the wire is 400 seconds.

Given the data in the question;

  • Current; [tex]I = 5.00mA = 0.005A[/tex]
  • Quantity of charge; [tex]Q = 2.00C[/tex]
  • Time; [tex]t = ?[/tex]

Current

Current can be referred to as the electric charge transferred per unit time, it is the rate of flow of electric charge.

It is expressed as;

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

Where Q is quantity of charge and t is time elapsed.

To determine the time taken for the charge to pass through the wire, we substitute our given values into the expression above.

[tex]I = \frac{Q}{t} \\\\0.005A = \frac{2.00C}{t}\\ \\t = \frac{2.00C}{0.005A}\\ \\t = 400s[/tex]

Therefore, the time taken for the given quantity of charge to pass through the wire is 400 seconds.
