Current
Current is the rate of flow of Charge
I = Δq/Δt
Current
Voltage
Voltage (Potential Difference) is the change in energy (work done) to each coulomb of charge between two points on a circuit, or two points across an electric field
E: Electric Field (Vm-1 or NC-1 depending on the context used)
Electric Force
Fe = Eq
Fe: Electrical Force (N)
q or Q: Charge (C)
Electrical Charge
Voltage (Potential Difference)
Voltage (Potential Difference) is the change in energy (work done) to each coulomb of charge between two points on a circuit, or two points across an electric field
Voltage (Potential Difference)
Voltage (Potential Difference) is the change in energy (work done) to each coulomb of charge between two points on a circuit, or two points across an electric field
V = ΔE/Q
Electrical Potential Energy
As the charge falls through the Electric Field, the electrical potential energy transforms into kinetic energy.
