Detailed explanation-1: -An electric current is a stream of charged particles, such as electrons or ions, moving through an electrical conductor or space. It is measured as the net rate of flow of electric charge through a surface or into a control volume.

Detailed explanation-2: -electric current: A continuous flow of electric charge moving from one place to another along a pathway; required to make all electrical devices work; measured in amperes or amps (A).

Detailed explanation-3: -Electric current is flow of electrons in a conductor. The force required to make current flow through a conductor is called voltage and potential is the other term of voltage.

Detailed explanation-4: -When an electric current flows in a conductor, it flows as a drift of free electrons in the metal. Electricity flows easily through a conductor because the electrons are free to move around in the object. Whenever there is a movement of electrons through a conductor, an electric current is created.
