Explanation:
The charge in motion constitutes electric current. Current is defined as the rate of flow of charge. In other words, the current flowing in a conductor is the amount of charge flowing per second across any cross section of it. It is per second across any cross section of it. It is denoted by the letter I (or i). If a charge Q flows through a cross section normal to its direction of motion. In time t, then current I through the conductor is given as : I = Q/T.
Unit of electric current:
S.I unit: We define one ampere as the current which flows in a conductor when one coulomb of charge passes through it in one second i.e.,
- 1 A = 1 C / 1 s = 1 C s⁻¹

- As we know that the flow of electrically charged particles such as ions or electrons is known as electric current. in a conductor, it is the rate of flow of electrons.
- A magnetic field is also created in motors, generators, and in inductors.
- The one coulomb of electrical charge is represented by one ampere of current. current is denoted by the letter I.
