Points : Electric Current, Notation, Formula, Unit of Electric Current, Definition of One Ampere, Sub Multiple Units of Ampere
Definition
The rate of flow of electric charge wider the influence of an applied electric field is called electric current.
Notation
Electric current is denoted by ‘I’.
Formula
If ‘Q’ is, net charge passing through any cross section of a conductor in ‘t’ seconds, then according to the definition of
electric current,
Electric current = Charge/time
I=O/t
Unit of Electric Current
According to the formula
I = O/t = Coulomb / Second = C/Sec = Ampere
Definition of One Ampere
If one coulomb of charge is flowing through a cross - section of a conductor in one second then current is one ampere.
Sub Multiple Units of Ampere
1 mille ampere = 10-3 ampere.
1 micro ampere = 10-6
