What is an electical current?
Electric current is simply the flow of free electrons in a conductor. It is usually defined as the rate of charge flow, because the free electrons represent an electric charge.
What are the kinds of electric charge?
The kinds of electric charge are positive charge and negative charge
Is an electric current a flow of negative charges?
Electrons are a negative charge. Using conventional notation current flows from positive to negative poles of a battery, for example. In electron flow convention the electrons flow from negative to positive.
What is the difference between power and current?
It's the difference between pressure and flow. The pressure is measured in volts, and the current in amps.Current is the flow of electrons.Power=VIcosϕV=voltageI=currentCosϕ=cosine of angle between V and IAnswerCurrent is a drift of electric charge, expressed in amperes. Power is the rate of doing work, expressed in watts (equivalent to a joule per second).
What is the Difference between current and current density?
Electric current is the rate of [http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/electric/elecur.html#c2 charge] flow past a given point in an electric circuit, measured in Coulombs/second which is named Amperes through any cross sectional area,which can be measured by Pi*r*r. [1coulomb/second=1Ampere]while Electric current density is the measure of electric charges passing through a conductor in a electric circuit in a constant cross sectional area of 1 meter square.[1Ampere/Meter square]
What is the rate of a flow charge?
Rate of flow of charge is called electric current. Generally we knows current means flow.... here rate of flow of charge means how much charge flows in a given time is called electric current
Which part of a circuit is a current?
Current is the flow of electric charge or the rate of the flow of an electric charge through a conductor.
What refers to the rate flow of electric charge?
That is called electric current, or simply current.
When did you refer to electricity as current?
Current is the rate of flow of electric charge.
What physical quantity corresponds to the rate of flow of charge?
Electric current
What is an electical current?
Electric current is simply the flow of free electrons in a conductor. It is usually defined as the rate of charge flow, because the free electrons represent an electric charge.
What is the term of the flow of electric charge?
Electric Current is the flow of electrons and hence charge
What does an electric current Carry?
Electric current carries electric charge. Actually to say it in the right sense, we have to say that electric current is the rate of flow of electric charges
What condition will result in the flow of electric charge?
By the application of a voltage source electric charge will flow.
What is a define current?
the rate of flow of electric charge through any cross sectional area is called electric current. by,Rameen Riaz
What is electric charge a continuous flow of?
electric current. . . . . . .
Is it true that In Ohms law the variable i represents the rate of flow of charge which is called impedance?
"I" represents the current which is the flow of electric charge. Impedance is the measure of the opposition to the flow of current at a given voltage usually in a.c. circuits.
