What happened next was this: Jahlil phoned his father, Chucky Okafor, who had moved from Oklahoma back to his hometown of Chicago a few years before. Chucky heard it immediately in his sonâs voice, which was somewhere between a cry and a scream. The only words Chucky could make out: âMama.
Current is the rate at which charge is flowing. Resistance is a materialâs tendency to resist the flow of charge (current). So, when we talk about these values, weâre really describing the movement of charge, and thus, the behavior of electrons.
in electric current. ...current is the ampere, a flow of one coulomb of charge per second, or 6.2 Ã 10 electrons per second. The centimetreâgramâsecond units of current are either the electrostatic unit of charge (esu) per second or the absolute electromagnetic unit (abamp). One abamp equals 10 amps; 1 amp equals 3 Ã 10 esu per second.
