Nowadays, the ampere is considered the fundamental unit, and the coulomb is the derived unit. In other words, the coulomb is the amount of charge delivered in one second by a current of one ampere.
AnswerThe coulomb has never ever been considered a Base Unit in either the SI or earlier metric systems. The ampere has always been considered a Base Unit. Prior to 1948, the ampere was defined in terms of its chemical effect; after 1948 it was defined in terms of its magnetic effect -i.e. in terms of the force between two, parallel, current-carrying conductors. So, the ampere has never been defined as an unit of rate. On the contrary, the coulomb is a Derived Unit, based on the ampere and the second.

What is the unit of measurement for electrical flow rate?
That would be the current. The international unit for electrical current is the Ampere. Spelt ampere (with a lower case "a"). The abbreviation is given the upper case "A".
An ampere is a unit of electrical?
The Ampere (capitalized because its name came from a person) is the basic unit of electrical current.
The unit of current?
you can measure the unit of a current in amps (A) we measure the current using a ammeter
Why current a fundamental quantity though it is flow of charge per unit time?
Ampere = Coloumb / second is the same as saying that Coloumb = Ampere x second. Any of the two electrical units can be derived from the other one. Ampere is NOT a "fundamental quantity"; it is an SI base unit. The base units are not necessarily those that are somehow considered more "fundamental" than others; instead, the base units are those that can be measured with a great accuracy. In the case of current vs. charge, it seems that measuring a current can be done with greater accuracy than measuring a charge directly; therefore, the current is the base unit, and the current is derived. However, this doesn't make current any more "fundamental" than charge.
A coulomb is a measure of whereas an ampereis a measure of?
A coulomb is a unit for measurement of electrical charge and an ampere is the unit used for measurement of electric current.
How are ampere and coulomb related?
An ampere is a unit of electric current, representing the rate of flow of electrons in a circuit. A coulomb is a unit of electric charge, representing the quantity of charge passing through a point in a circuit. They are related in that 1 ampere is equal to 1 coulomb per second.
What is a rate that's in which the second quantity in the comparison is one unit?
It is a unit rate.A unit rate.
A unit of measurement that describes the rate that electricity flows through a wire is a?
Ampere (A) is the unit of measurement that describes the rate that electricity flows through a wire.
A rate in which the second quantity is one unit?
Unit Rate
Rate for one unit of a given quantity?
it is a unit rate
What is a rate that compares a quantity to one unit?
Unit rate
What is the value of 1 ampere?
ampere is the unit of the electric current intensity 1ampere=1coloumb/1sec intensity=quantity/time(by seconds)
What is the practical unit of quantity of electricity?
The practical unit of quantity of electricity is the Coulomb, which is equal to the amount of charge transported by a current of one ampere in one second.
What is the definition of unit rate?
The Unit Rate Is The Quantity Of ONE Thing
Why is ampere a fundamental unit?
Ampere is a fundamental unit because it represents the base unit of electrical current in the International System of Units (SI). Electrical current is a fundamental physical quantity that plays a crucial role in many aspects of physics and engineering, making the ampere a fundamental unit of measurement.
How can a rate be written as a unit rate?
Unit Rates ... Is the rate for one unit of a given quantity. Unit means one .
Which physical quantity which is represented by Coulomb per second?
That unit is the "Ampere". It represents electrical current.
