What is one ampere?

Answer»

If one coulomb of charge is passing through any cross section of a conductor in one second, the amount of current flowing through it is called one ampere. 

[Note: 1 ampere = 1 coulomb per second OR 1A = 1 C/s. The coulomb is named in honour of Charles Augustin de Coulomb (1736 – 1806), French physicist. The ampere is named in honour of Andre Ampere (1175 – 1836), French physicist and mathematician.]
