A

A

Amperes or Amps


C

Capacitor Charge

Q = C x V


Couloumbs

The quantity of electricity 


Current

I= V divided by R


I

I = Q/t

An electric current is a flow of charged particles. 

The size of an electric current is the rate of flow of charge



P

Power

P equals I squared R


Q

Q

Q = I x T


R

Resistance

R= V divided by I

T

Time

Always measured in seconds (sec)


V

Voltage

V= I x R
