Electric Current and Electrical Energy 17.2

Current Electric current is the rate at which charges pass a given point An electric current can be made when there is a potential difference between two points. Measured in units called amps or amperes(A).

Voltage As voltage or potential difference(push) increases, current increases. Measured in units called volts (V).

Resistance An object’s resistance varies depending on the object’s material, thickness, length and temperature. As resistance increases, current decreases. Measured in units called ohms (Ω)

Generating Electrical Energy Cells and batteries convert chemical energy or radiant energy into electrical energy. Thermocouples and photocells are devices used to generate electrical energy.
