Insulators
Conductors are those materials where
electrons can move freely under the
influence of an electric field.
Conductors are important in Physics
155.3 because they allow us to create
electric circuits

introduced earlier?

These materials have a few free electrons

A coulomb/second is called an ampere

Current Direction
The symbol for average current is I
I=
If charge is moving in a conductor, for
example a copper wire, then, by
definition, current is the rate at which
charge passes a plane.

Current has direction and, by definition, the
direction is opposite to the flow of electrons.
The reason for this is that when current was
defined it was thought that the positive
charge was what flowed.

It is common for a symbol or an abbreviation to have more

meaning The context in which it is used
determines exactly what is being talked about.
For example, C can mean coulombs and C can mean
capacitance. This can be quite confusing since coulombs and
capacitance are sometimes referred to in the same
sentence.
