Show transcript
Two unlike electric charges attract each other. Two like electric charges repel each other. In an electric circuit, electrons are forced towards the positive terminal of a battery. Electric current is the amount of charge that passes a point in a circuit in each second. Current can be found using the equation: current = charge ÷ time.
