The compressor of an air conditioner draws an electric current of 23.7 a when it starts up. if the start-up time is 2.35 s long, then how much electric charge passes through the circuit during this period?

Electric charge, Q = 55.69 C

Explanation:

It is given that,

Electric current drawn by the compressor, I = 23.7 A

Time taken, t = 2.35 s

We need to find the electric charge passes through the circuit during this period. The definition of electric current is given by total charge divided by total time taken.

Where,

q is the electric charge

q = 55.69 C

So, the electric charge passes through the circuit during this period is 55.69 C. Hence, this is the required solution.
