We can use the definition of current in the equation \(I = \Delta Q / \Delta t\) to find the current in part (a), since charge and time are given. In part (b), we rearrange the definition of current and use the given values of charge and current to find the time required.

- 9.2: Electrical Current
The rate at which the charges flow past a location—that is, the amount of charge per unit time—is known as the electrical current. When charges flow through a medium, the current depends on the voltage applied, the material through which the charges flow, and the state of the material.
The flow of charge is called current. It is defined as the rate at which charge is transferred through an object (I = ∆q/∆t). The unit of current is the ampere.
The current formula is derived from Ohm's law. Current is defined as the flow of electrons in an electric circuit. The flow of electrons occurs due to potential differences. The current is also known as the rate of change of charge with time.
To answer all these questions, use the mathematical equation for current: I = Q / t . a. A current of one ampere is a flow of charge at the rate of 1 coulomb per second. b. When a charge of 8 coulombs flows past any point along a circuit in 2 seconds, the current is 4 A. c.
An electric current is a flow of charged particles, such as electrons or ions, moving through an electrical conductor or space. It is defined as the net rate of flow of electric charge through a surface.
Electrical Current. The average electrical current I is the rate at which charge flows, Iave = ΔQ Δt, I ave = Δ Q Δ t, 9.1. where ΔQ Δ Q is the amount of net charge passing through a given cross-sectional area in time Δt Δ t (Figure 9.2).
