Basic Electrical Relationships Coulomb’s Law Coulomb -- a unit of charge 1 coulomb = 6.2×1018 elementary charges The electrical analog of force is voltage The electrical analog of velocity is current
Movement of Charges A good analogy is the expansion of gases into larger containers -- although the proximate cause of the expansion is quite different!
