Question
The area under the current-time graph is equivalent to:
Correct Answer
Option C is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
Current (I) is defined as the rate of flow of charge (Q) with respect to time (t), i.e., I = dQ/dt. Therefore, integrating current over time gives the total charge: Q = ∫I dt. Graphically, the area under the current-time graph represents the magnitude of the charge.
Hint
Recall the fundamental definition of electric current in terms of charge and time.
