A flash of lighting carries 10 C of charge which flows for 0.01 s. What is the current? If the voltage is 10 MV, what is the energy?

उत्तर
Given:
Charge, Q = 10 C
Time, t = 0.01 s
Then the current, I = Q / t
So I = 10/0.01 = 1000 A
Also given that:
V = 10 mV = 1,00,00,000 V
So energy = Work done, W = V x Q
= 1,00,00,000 x 10 = 1,00,000,000 J = 100 MJ
