Electric current

An electric current is the flow of electrons through a conductor. Quantitatively, current (I) is defined as the charge passing through a conductor in unit time.

If charge Q is flowing through cross-section of a conductor in time t then the current= I= Q/t.

The unit of charge in SI units is Coulomb (C). Current is expressed in Ampere (A).

The charge of one electron is 1.6 x10-19C.

Ampere : One ampere current is said to flow in a conductor if one Coulomb charge flows through it every second.
