Concept explainers
Do an ampere and a volt measure the same thing, or different things? What are those things, and which is a flow and which is the cause of the flow?
Whether an ampere and volt measure the same thing or not.
To Identify: Things, flow and cause of the flow.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Ampere and volt measure different things. These things are current and voltage.
Current is measured in amperes and voltage is measured in volts. Current flows when voltage is established across a conductor.
Conclusion:
Ampere and volt measure different things.
