The flow of electrons through a conductor is called electrical current.

Charged particles (electrons) that move through a substance creates electricity.

The path that electricity takes.

Resistors

  • resistance is measured in ohms:  Ω
  • Ohm's Law: the current through a conductor between two points, is directly proportional to the voltage across the two points
  • Named after Georg Simon Ohm
