🔍 Key Concepts

• Electric current as a "rate of flow" of charge • Difference between current, voltage, resistance, and power • Standard SI units used in basic electrical theory

💭 Think About

• When you hear "rate of flow" in electricity, what electrical quantity does that usually describe? • Which unit is used to measure how much charge passes a point in a circuit each second? • Think about what each option normally measures: which one is tied directly to the flow, not the push, opposition, or total work?

✅ Before You Answer

• Match each choice with its usual meaning: current, voltage, resistance, power • Verify which unit is defined as coulombs of charge per second (charge flow over time) • Eliminate any units that describe pressure (push), opposition to flow, or rate of doing work, not the flow itself
