willem2 said:A is an area, so it can't be 1 divided by a length. You seem to be forgetting n and the fact that it isn't dimensionless.
An electric current is the flow of electric charge through a conductor or medium.
Electric current is measured in units of amperes (A) using a device called an ammeter.
The strength of an electric current is affected by the voltage, resistance, and type of conductor or medium.
Direct current flows in one direction, while alternating current periodically reverses direction.
Electric current is used in a wide range of applications, such as powering electronic devices, lighting homes and buildings, and running appliances and machinery.
