A charge of passes through a wire in .
- What is the current?
- How much charge passes in at this current?
Need a reminder? The key ideaShow
Current is the charge passing each second: , in amperes (). One electron carries . The conventional current goes from to outside a cell; electrons drift the other way.
The worked solution
Have you tried it?
