alleryOne ampere is defined as the current when
A$1\,\text{J}$ of work is done per second
B$1\,\text{C}$ of charge flows in $1\,\text{s}$
C$1\,\text{V}$ is applied across a conductor
D$1\,\text{N}$ force acts on a charge
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. $1\,\text{C}$ of charge flows in $1\,\text{s}$
By definition, $1\,\text{A}=1\,\text{C}/\text{s}$.
That means a current is one ampere if one coulomb of charge flows in one second.
