medium 10 Questions
Question 1 of 10

What is the unit of electric current?

Electric current is measured in Amperes (A).
Question 2 of 10

Which of the following is the formula for calculating electric current?

Electric current (I) is calculated by dividing the charge (Q) by time (t).
Question 3 of 10

What type of current flows in one direction only?

Direct current (DC) flows in only one direction.
Question 4 of 10

What does a rectifier do?

A rectifier converts Alternating Current (AC) to Direct Current (DC).
Question 5 of 10

What effect does electric current have on a conductor?

Electric current can generate heat, create a magnetic field, and induce chemical reactions.
Question 6 of 10

What instrument is used to measure electric current?

An ammeter is used to measure electric current.
Question 7 of 10

According to Ohm's Law, what is the relationship between current (I), voltage (V), and resistance (R)?

Ohm's Law states that current (I) equals voltage (V) divided by resistance (R).
Question 8 of 10

If a resistor has 15 ohms of resistance and 60 volts are applied, what is the current flowing through it?

Using Ohm's Law (I = V/R), I = 60V / 15? = 4A.
Question 9 of 10

A 36W bulb is connected to a 24V supply. What is the current flowing through it?

Power (P) = Voltage (V) * Current (I). Therefore, I = P/V = 36W / 24V = 1.5A.
Question 10 of 10

An 80W bulb has 5 ohms of resistance. What is the current flowing through it?

First, find the voltage using P = V^2 / R. V = sqrt(P*R) = sqrt(80 * 5) = 20V. Then, use Ohm's Law: I = V/R = 20V/ 5? = 4A
