Ohm's law specifies the relationship between voltage (V), current (I), and resistance (R) in an electrical circuit: V = IR.
V = \( I \times R \) = \( 8.5 \times 20 \) = 170 V

In contrast to the constant one-way flow of direct current, alternating current changes direction many times each second. Electricity is delivered from power stations to customers as AC because it provides a more efficient way to transport electricity over long distances.
Current is the rate of flow of electrons per unit time and is measured in:
volts |
|
ohms |
|
coulombs |
|
amperes |
Current is the rate of flow of electrons per unit time and is measured in amperes (A). A coulomb (C) is the quantity of electricity conveyed in one second by a current of one ampere.
The rate of flow of electrons per unit time is which of the following?
conductance |
|
resistance |
|
voltage |
|
current |
Current is the rate of flow of electrons per unit time and is measured in amperes (A). A coulomb (C) is the quantity of electricity conveyed in one second by a current of one ampere.
What is the frequency of most household electrical systems?
60Hz |
|
110Hz |
|
60MHz |
|
110V |
Electricity is delivered from power stations to customers as AC because it provides a more efficient way to transport electricity over long distances. Most households use electricity with a frequency of 60Hz.
