    1) Potential difference is the amount of work done to move a unit positive charge between two points against repulsion, measured in volts. It is calculated as work done divided by charge. 2) Electric current is the flow of electrons or movement of positive charge through a conductor. It is calculated as the amount of charge passing through per unit time and measured in amperes. 3) One volt is defined as the potential difference when one joule of work is done to move one coulomb of charge, and one ampere is one coulomb of charge passing through in one second.

    Potential Difference (p.

    d) :-
    The amount of work done in moving a unit positive charge from one point to another
    against the force of repulsion is called pottential difference
    .'. Potential Difference = workdone/charge
    V = W/Q
    SI unit of p.d (voltage) is volt
    V = 6V means p.d = 6 volts

    Current :- [Electric Current]


    -> Movement of electrons (negative charge)
    -> (convention) Movement of positive charge
    -> (definition)
    The amount of charge flowing through the conductor in unit time is called current
    Current = charge moved/time taken
    I = Q/t
    SI unit of current is ampere
    I = 3A
    => Current = 3 ampere

    Potential Difference = work done/charge moved

    Definition of 1 volt :- When a work of 1 joule is done in moving 1 coulumb of


    charge, then 1 volt of p.d exists across the ends of the conductor.

    Current = Charge moved/Time

    1 ampere = 1 coulumb/1 second

    Definition of 1 ampere :- If 1coulumb ofcharge is moved in 1 second of time, then 1


    ampere of current is said to be flowing through the conductor.
