Frequently Asked Questions

Electricity is the flow of electric charge (usually electrons) through a conductor due to a potential difference.

Electric current is the rate of flow of charge through a conductor.

Ampere (A).

A current of 1 A flows when 1 coulomb of charge passes through a conductor in 1 second.

\(( I = \frac{Q}{t} \) where \(I\) = current, \(Q\) = charge, \(t\) = time.

It is the work done to move a unit charge between two points in an electric circuit.

Volt (V).

\( V = \frac{W}{Q} \)

A device used to measure potential difference in a circuit.

Always in parallel with the component.

A device used to measure current in a circuit.

Always in series with the component.

Resistance is the opposition offered by a conductor to the flow of electric current.

Ohm (O).

At constant temperature, the current through a conductor is directly proportional to the potential difference across it: ( V \propto I ).
