# Problem: The current in a wire varies with time according to the relation I = (55 A - (0.65 A/s2)t2.How many coulombs of charge pass a cross-section of the wire in the time interval between t = 0 and t = 8.5s ? Express your answer using two significant figures.What constant current would transport the same charge in the same time interval? Express your answer using two significant figures.
