Electric charge from current and time
Calculate charge transferred by a steady current over a stated time interval.
Method and scope
Q = IΔt.
Use electric charge from current and time for educational calculation or a clearly scoped arithmetic estimate. Intended for Learners, General educational use.
Inputs- Current — A, mA
- Elapsed time — s, ms, min, h
SOURCE AND LIMITS
Assumptions: Current is constant or is the average over the interval.
Limitations: For varying current, charge is the time integral of current.
