    Chapter 2: ELECTRICITY: 2.2 Analysing The Relationship Between Electric Current and Potential Difference

    Uploaded by

    Khairul Aizuddin
    This document discusses the relationship between electric current and potential difference. It defines key terms like potential difference and resistance. It explains that potential difference is the work done to move a unit charge between two points in an electric field. It also introduces Ohm's Law, which states that the current through a conductor is directly proportional to the potential difference across it, and describes resistance as the ratio between potential difference and current.
