Section 3
Electric Current
Electric current (I) is rate at which
charges flow through an area.
SI unit: coulombs/second (C/s) or
amperes (A)
1 A = 6.25 1018 electrons/second
Section 3
Conventional Current
Conventional current (I) is
defined as the flow of
positive charge.
The flow of negative charge
as shown would be
equivalent to an equal
amount of positive charge in
the opposite direction.
In conducting wires, I is
opposite the direction of
electron flow.

Section 3
Resistance to Current
Resistance is opposition to the flow of charge.
SI unit: volts/ampere (V/A) or ohms ()
Ohms Law : V = IR
Valid only for certain materials whose resistance is constant over
a wide range of potential differences
