What to Focus On
- Electric current is the flow of electric charges through a conductor
- Current direction is conventionally taken as opposite to electron flow
- Formula: I = Q/t (Current = Charge/Time)
- Potential difference is the work done per unit charge
- Formula: V = W/Q (Voltage = Work/Charge)
- SI unit is volt (V), where 1V = 1J/C
- Ohm's Law: V = IR (Voltage = Current × Resistance)
- Current is directly proportional to voltage at constant temperature
- Current is inversely proportional to resistance
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Current flows from negative terminal to positive terminal of a battery
Voltage and current are the same thing - both measure electricity
In series combination, voltage is same across all resistors and current adds up
Memory Tips
Electric current definition and direction
Current formula I = Q/t
Potential difference definition V = W/Q
Ohm's Law V = IR
