Electric Current (continued)
It is the time rate of flow of charge through a conductor when 
there is net transfer of charge (say ?Q) across a cross section 
during a time interval (say ?t), we define average electric 
current as

The conventional direction of current is along the direction of 
flow of positive charge and opposite to motion of negative 
charge.
