What do you think is the importance of
understanding electricity? Try to see it from
smaller to larger scale.
Vocabulary Word….
Current represents the flow of electrons, however it
flows from the positive terminal of the battery towards
the negative terminal, and it is the common way of
representing the flow of current in an electric circuit,
that is how it perceive, thus it is called conventional
current, the choice or preferred current flow, so the
moving charges are considered positive, so it is assume
that it is moving in the same direction with current. On
the other hand, the opposite direction is the actual flow
of electrons, from the negative terminal to the positive
terminal.

It is important to realize that the difference between
conventional current flow and electron flow
in no way effects any real-world behavior or
computational results. In general, analyzing an
electrical circuit yields results that are independent
of the assumed direction of current flow.
Con?ventional current flow is the standard that most
all of the world follows.
CURRENT: I = Q/t
CHARGE: Q = It
TIME: t= Q/I
Example:
A current of 5 A flows through a
resistor for 30 minutes. How
many electrons flows through
the resistor during the time
given?
There are other factor and properties that affects
the flow of electric charges, and one of which is
voltage and resistance aside from current. Its
relationship is summarized and explained by Ohm’s
Law, which named after George Simon Ohm. It states
that the current is directly proportional to voltage
and inversely proportional to resistance as shown in
the equation below.
 I=V
Where, R
• (V) is denoted for voltage and has a unit of volts
(V), it serves as a “force” that pushes electrons
through a certain component in an electric
circuit,
• (I) for current is the electron flow which is
measured in ampere (A), and
• (R)resistance is measured in ohms(Ω).
RESISTANCE
Resistance is the force that reduces or stops the flow of
electrons. It opposes voltage.

Higher resistance will decrease the flow of electrons and

lower resistance will allow more electrons to flow.
