Define the following terms and state their SI unit of meausrement? voltage,current, and resistance
Voltage: Voltage, also known as electric potential difference, is the measurement of the electric potential energy per unit charge between two points in an electrical circuit. It represents the force or pressure that drives electric current through a conducting material.
The SI unit of voltage is the Volt (V).
Current: Current refers to the flow of electric charge per unit of time. It represents the rate at which charges move through a conductor in an electrical circuit. In simpler terms, current is the movement of electrons or other charge carriers.
The SI unit of current is the Ampere (A).
Resistance: Resistance is the opposition to the flow of electric current in a circuit. It is the property of a material that hinders the movement of charges through it. Resistance is responsible for converting electrical energy into heat and often determines the amount of current flowing through a circuit for a given voltage.
The SI unit of resistance is the Ohm (Ω).
