DEFINTIONS AND CHARACTERISTICS

1. 1. ELECTRIC CURRENT

2. Definition of Electric current?
The rate of change of total charge
flowing to time taken.

3. EC=Total charge flowing
Time taken
I= q/t
That is
If the flow of charges is not uniform then
current is given by
I=dq/dt
Where dq is the change that flows across a
cross-section in a time dt.

4. Unit of Electric current
The SI unit of electric current is
ampere(A)
It is also known as practical unit of
current and denoted by the letter A.
The current through a conductor is said
to be one ampere.
