Divine Source
2 Nephi 25:26
26 And we talk of Christ, we rejoice in Christ, we
preach of Christ, we prophesy of Christ, and we write
according to our prophecies, that our children may
know to what source they may look for a remission of
their sins.

Charge
Elektron: Greek word for amber
~600 B.C. it was discovered that static charge on a piece
of amber could attract light objects (feathers)
Charge (q): fundamental electric quantity
Smallest amount of charge is that carried by an
electron/proton (elementary charges):
19
qe / q p   /  1.602 10 C
Coulomb (C): basic unit of charge.

Electric Current
 Electric current (i): the rate of change (in time) of charge
passing through a predetermined area (IE the cross-sectional
area of a wire).
 Analogous to volume flow rate in hydraulics
 Current (i) refers to ∆q (dq) units of charge that flow through a crosssectional area (Area) in ∆t (dt) units of time

Area
Ampere (A): electric current unit.
1 ampere = 1 coulomb/second (C/s)
ECEN 301
Positive current flow is in the direction
of positive charges (the opposite direction
of the actual electron movement)

NB: First thing to do – decide on unknown current
directions.
• If you select the wrong direction it won’t
matter
• a negative current indicates current is
flowing in the opposite direction.
• Must be consistent
• Once a current direction is chosen must
keep it

requires work
Voltage: the work (energy) required to move a unit
charge between two points

Alessandro Volta)
Volt (V): voltage unit.
1 Volt = 1 joule/coulomb (J/C)
