Question No. 52 to 55 are based on the given text. Read the text carefully and answer the
questions:
The rate of flow of charge through any cross-section of a wire is called electric current flowing through
q
it. Electric current (I) = t
. Its SI unit is ampere (A). The conventional direction of electric current is the
direction of motion of positive charge. The current is the same for all cross-sections of a conductor of
the non-uniform cross-section. Resistance is a measure of the opposition to current flow in an electrical
circuit.
