Question

define electric current

Answer 1

ELECTRIC CURRENT EXPRESSED AS THE AMOUNT OF CHARGE FLOWING THROUGH A PARTICULAR AREA IN UNIT TIME.THE SI UNIT OF  ELECTRIC CURRENT  IS AMPERE[A]. 1A=1C /1S.

Answer 2

Electrical current is a measure of the amount of electrical charge transferred per unit time. It represents the flow of electrons through a conductive material.

Current is a scalar quantity (though in circuit analysis, the direction of current is relevant). The SI unit of electrical current is the ampere, defined as 1 coulomb/second.
