What is electric current current?
The correct term for the flow of electricity is current. Current is the number of electrons flowing per second in a circuit. The unit of electrical current flow is called the ampere. When 6.28 billion electrons pass a given point, this is called 1 coulomb. 1 coulomb per second is equal to 1 amp of current. Current flow is measured with an ammeter.
What kind of energy powers your light and appliances?
Usually - but not always - electricity powers our lights and appliances.
Why does voltmeter practically not consume any electric energy from the electric circuit?
The resistance used in a voltmeter is extremely high when measuring voltage, which is why the current is low (I = E/R).
Does geothermal energy depend on the weather?
No
What does it mean for an object to have electrical charge?
If an object has an electrical charged, it usually means that and electrical current also known as a flow of electrons is passing through it.
What is the the energy carried by each unit of a current called?
Amperage is the energy carried by each unit of a current
What else increases as energy carried by a current increases?
The amount of electric energy that is converted into thermal energy increases as the resistance of wire increases. As the resistance in the current increases, the current in the circuit decreases.
What supplies energy in an electric current?
Electric cells
For a coil with electric current where is the energy associated with the magnetic field of the electric current stored?
The Magnetic field itself can do no work and is a byproduct of the electric current. The energy is stored in the current or provided by whatever drives the current.
The energy of moving electric charges are called?
Electrical energy
What type of energy is carried by moving negative charges?
That is the electric energy. It is called the electricity
Where does electricity get energy?
An electric current HAS energy. The energy comes from whatever caused the electric current to flow in the first place - for example, a generator, or a battery.
Energy carried by electromagnetic waves?
constantly changing electric and magnetic fieldsRadiant energy.
What moves in a electric current?
Heat Energy
What is the energy associated with electric current is called?
Moving electrons possess kinetic energy, but the energy you are referring to is called electricity
What is a flow of eletrical energy?
electric current
What Energy that moves through an electric circuit is carried by moving'?
The answer is Charges
