Resistance & Conductance of Conductor
Mechanism of Current Flow In A Conductor- Before you go through this article, make sure that you have gone through the previous article on Mechanism of Current Flow In A Conductor. We have learnt- When a potential difference is applied across the ends of a conductor, an electric field is created inside it. […]
Electric Current & Drift Velocity | Relation
Electric Current- Before you go through this article, make sure that you have gone through the previous articles on Electric Current & Drift Velocity. We have learnt- Electric current is the flow of electric charges (free electrons) through a conductor in a preferred direction. Drift velocity is the average uniform velocity with which […]
Drift Velocity | Relaxation Time | Concept
Electric Current- Before you go through this article, make sure that you have gone through the previous article on Basics of Electric Current. We have learnt- When electric charges (free electrons) flow through a conductor in a preferred direction, it constitutes an electric current. The amount of charge flowing through the area per […]
Electric Current | Definition | SI Unit
Electricity- The branch of physics which deals with the study of electric charges is called as Electricity. There are two branches of electricity- 1. Static Electricity- The branch of physics which deals with the study of electric charges at rest is called as static electricity also called as electrostatics. […]
