Detailed explanation-1: -When matter that carries a charge moves in an electric field, it also carries kinetic energy. By comparing the two mathematical descriptions of kinetic energy, we can relate how the speed of a particle, V, changes as its mass, m, charge, q, or the electrical voltage, E, it moves in, is changed.

Detailed explanation-2: -Electrical energy is the product of power multiplied by the length of time it was consumed. So if we know how much power, in Watts is being consumed and the time, in seconds for which it is used, we can find the total energy used in watt-seconds. In other words, Energy = power x time and Power = voltage x current.

Detailed explanation-3: -Electric current is therefore a flow of charged particles or charge carriers. The charge carrier can be an electron, a proton, an ion, or any particle with charge. In an electric circuit, the charge is usually carried by electrons.

Detailed explanation-4: -Electrical energy is caused by moving particles that have a negative or positive charge. These charged particles are called electrons. The faster the electrons are moving, the more electrical energy they carry. Electrical energy commonly moves through a wire in an electrical circuit.
