Question

What are the 4 basic units of Electricity?

Answer 1

Electricity:

1. Electricity is a system of interconnected of physical phenomena related to the presence and motion of matter having an electric charge.
2. Both electricity and magnetism are connected to the phenomena of electromagnetic, as defined by Maxwell's equations.

Fundamental units of Electricity:

1. Voltage:
   1. Voltage is the amount of work necessary to transfer one electric charge from one location to another.
   2. The unit of voltage is the Volt ($\mathrm{V}$).
2. Current:
   1. Current is the amount of charge that flows across a circuit in one unit of time.
   2. The unit of current is the Ampere ($\mathrm{A}$).
3. Resistance:
   1. Resistance is the opposition provided by the current flow in the circuit.
   2. Ohms ($\mathrm{\Omega }$) is the unit of measurement for resistance.
4. Power:
   1. Power is defined as the product of work done and the number of electrons traveling through a circuit in one unit of time.
   2. The unit of power is Watt ($\mathrm{W}$).

Volts, amps, ohms, and watts are therefore the four fundamental units of electricity.
