Electrical Charge
Current
Current is the rate of flow of Charge
I = Īq/Īt
Current
Voltage
Voltage (Potential Difference) is the change in energy (work done) to each coulomb of charge between two points on a circuit, or two points across an electric field

Internal Resistance of a Battery
Batteries can be thought of as having an ideal voltage supply E.M.F. (Electromotive Force) in series with an internal resistance
V = š - Ir

Kichhoff's Laws
Kirchhoff’s Current Law
“At any junction in a circuit, the total current entering the junction equals the total current leaving the junction”
Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law
“Around any closed path of a circuit, the total of all the potential differences, V, is zero”
“At any junction in a circuit, the total current entering the junction equals the total current leaving the junction”
Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law
“Around any closed path of a circuit, the total of all the potential differences, V, is zero”
