To find the total charge q that flows through the wire from t=1s to t=2s, we can integrate the current function I(t)=0.02t+0.01A over this interval.
The formula for the charge q flowing through the wire is given by the integral of the current with respect to time: q=∫I(t)dt We integrate the function from t=1 to t=2: q=∫12(0.02t+0.01)dt To solve this, first find the antiderivative: q=[0.022t2+0.01t]12 Calculate the expression at the upper and lower bounds: =[0.01t2+0.01t]12 Plug in the values: For t=2: =0.01(2)2+0.01(2)=0.04+0.02=0.06 For t=1: =0.01(1)2+0.01(1)=0.01+0.01=0.02 Subtract the result at t=1 from the result at t=2: q=0.06−0.02=0.04C Therefore, the charge that flows through the wire from t=1s to t=2s is 0.04C.
