Physics: Your cell phone typically consumes about 300 mW of power when you text a friend. If the phone is operated using a lithium-ion battery with a voltage of 3.5 V, what is the current (in A) flowing through the cell-phone circuitry under these circumstances

I = 0.0857 A

Explanation:

Given that,

Power consumed by the cellphone, P = 300 mW

The voltage of the battery, V = 3.5 V

Let I is the current flowing through the cell-phone. We know that,

P = VI

Where

I is the current

So,

$I=\dfrac{P}{V}\\\\I=\dfrac{300\times 10^{-3}}{3.5}\\\\I=0.0857\ A$

So, the current flowing the cell-phone is 0.0857 A.
