The direction in which +
charged particles would flow
to the - terminal
Electron
Electrons are -
charged and
would attract to
the + terminal
Electrolyte
Solution containing - & + ions
Coulomb
The amount of
charge that passes
a point when a
current of 1A flows
for 1s
1.6 x 10^-19
Ammeter
In series
Measure Current
Kirchhoffs 1st Law
The sum of currents entering any
junction in a circuit is equal to the
sum of currents leaving that same
junction
This is a consequence of the conversation of charge
Flow of Charge
Net flow of electrically charged particles
Q= IT
Current at ALL points of circuit
Drift Velocity
The average velocity with which
charge carriers move in the
conventional direction. They are
attracted to the opposite charge
and collide along the way- hence
drift
