The general unit of electric current is called Ampere ( Amps).

Ampere is defined as the flow of coloumb f charge per second, or 6.2 x 10^18 electrons per second. Ampere can be solve using Ohm's Law.

Formula for Ohm's Law:

V = IR

I = V/R

R = V/I

V = Voltage (volts)

I = Current (amps)

R = Resistance (ohms)
