Units Flashcards
What unit measures the amount of electric charge?
Coulomb (C) The Coulomb is the SI unit of electric charge. One Coulomb represents the charge transported by one ampere of current in one second.
What unit measures the rate of flow of electric current?
Ampere (A) The Ampere is the SI unit of electric current, representing one Coulomb of charge flow per second.
Which unit represents electric potential or voltage?
Volt (V) The Volt is the unit of electric potential or electromotive force. It measures the potential difference across a conductor when one ampere of current dissipates one watt of power.
What unit measures the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred?
Watt (W) The Watt is the SI unit of power, representing one joule of energy transferred or converted per second.
