Electricity

Current and Charge

Current

Rate of flow of charge (rate of flow of electrons)

Shared across elements in parallel

Same across elements in series

Charge Flow

The number of electrons

Equation

Q = I * t

charge (C) = current (A) * time (s)

current (A) = charge (C) / time (s)

Other

Potential Difference

Amount of energy transferred per unit charge
Same across elements in parallel
Shared across elements in series

Resistance

How difficult it is for current to flow through a circuit or component
Summed in series
Bit less than smallest value in parallel

Equation

V = IR
potential difference (V) = current (A) * resistance (Ω)
