  • Electric Current:
    rate of flow of charges
  • Coulomb:
    One coulomb is the amount of electric charge that passes through a point in one second when there is a constant current of one ampere.
  • Potential Difference:
    The potential difference between two points in a circuit is defined as the amount of electrical energy per unit charge that is converted to other forms of energy when charges pass from one point to the other.
  • The volt:
    One volt is the potential difference between two points in a circuit when one joule of electrical energy is converted to other forms of energy as one coulomb of charge passes through from one point to the other.
  • Electromotive Force:
    of a source is defined as the amount of electrical energy per unit charge that is converted from other forms of energy to drive charges around a complete circuit.
  • Resistance:
    of a conductor is defined as the ratio of the potential difference across it to the current flowing through it
  • The Ohm:
    is the resistance of a conductor when a potential difference of one volt across it causes a current of one ampere to flow through it.
  • Ohm’s Law:
    states that the current through a metallic conductor is proportional to the potential difference across its ends under constant physical conditions like temperature
