Potential Difference

The difference of electrical potential between two points

Electromotive Force (E.M.F.)

A difference in potential that tends to give rise to an electric current

Voltage

An electromotive force or potential difference expressed in volts

Current

A flow of electricity which results from the ordered directional movement

of electrically charged particles

A quantity representing the rate of flow of electric charge, usually

measured in amperes

Resistance

The degree to which a substance or device opposes the passage of an

electric current, causing energy dissipation. Resistance is measured in
ohms Ώ

Conductance

The degree to which an object conducts electricity, calculated as the ratio

of the current that flows to the potential difference present. This is the
reciprocal of the resistance, and is measured in siemens

Charge

The property of matter that is responsible for electrical phenomena,

existing in a positive or negative form

Energy stored chemically for conversion into electricity

The process of storing electrical energy in a battery
