Types of electric current Flashcards
What is the 1st type of electric current?
Conventional current- This current starts from positive terminal of a cell and ends at the negative terminal of the cell.
What is the 2nd type of electric current?
The 2nd type is called Real current - Real current starts at negative terminal of the cell and ends at the positive terminal of the cell
Nowadays, which current do we use?
Nowadays, we use conventional current, so we don’t need to include a “-“ in our calculations
What is another classification of electrical current?
Direct and Alternating
What is the Direct classifications about?
Direct- Always turning in a circuit in one direct with a constant amount
What is the Alternating classification about?
Alternating - The direction and the amount of current is changing
