Electric Charge • Charge is a fundamental electric quantity, measured by the unit Coulomb (C) • The smallest amount of charge that exists is the charge that is carried by 1 electron = -1.602 x 10-19 C • Therefore charge quantities in real life occur in integral multiples of an electron’s charge • Typically denoted by the symbol Q Block A Unit 1

Fundamental law for charge • Current has to flow in closed loop • No current flows if there is a break in the path • Underlying physical law: Charge cannot be created or destroyed • This is the basis of Kirchhoff’s Current Law i1 Kirchhoff’s current law Sum of currents at a node must equal to zero: i1 + i2 + i3 + i4 = 0 i2 i4 i3 Block A Unit 1
