That formula can help us calculate the energy transferred when a charge is moved within an electric field, whether it be kinetic energy gained by accelerating charges or potential energy stored in a capacitor.
Key learning points. Electric charge, Q, is measured in coulombs (C). Electric current is a measure of the rate of flow of electric charge, calculated using: I = Q ÷ t. Potential difference is a measure of the energy transferred by each coulomb of charge, calculated using: V = E ÷ Q.
If voltage, (V) equals Joules per Coulombs (V = J/C) and Amperes (I) equals charge (coulombs) per second (A = Q/t), then we can define electrical power (P) as being the totality of these two quantities. This is because electrical power can also equal voltage times amperes, that is: P = V*I.
