What is electric current?
Conventional current electrons
Conventional current
In metals current is a flow of electrons. In all materials current is a flow of charged particles.

What is the unit of charge?
• Charge is measured in Coulombs, C.• Charge flow = current x time
(Coulombs) (Amperes) (seconds)
E.g. A flow of 2A for 5s is a charge of 10 Coulombs.Page 192 Q a)
The capacity store of a battery is shown as Amp-hours or milliamp-hours (mAh). This tells you how long a battery can deliver a certain current.

Energy and potential difference
Energy transformed = potential difference x charge flow
From page 193 copy the worked example and answer b).

Summary
• An electric current is a flow of charge.
• When charge flows through a resistor, electrical energy is transferred as heat.
• Charge = Current x time• Energy transferred = pd x time
