Question
Identify if each statement is true or false (3 marks)a) Current is the flow or amount of electric chargeb) Voltage is a measure of the amount of electrical energy gained or lost by electric charge as it moves through the circuit.c) Current is also known as potential difference because it measures a change in the potential (stored) energy of charge as it moves between one place and another.
Solution
a) True. Current is indeed the flow or amount of electric charge.
b) True. Voltage is a measure of the amount of electrical energy gained or lost by electric charge as it moves through the circuit.
c) False. Current is not known as potential difference; voltage is the term used to describe the potential difference, which measures a change in the potential (stored) energy of charge as it moves between one place and another.
