The standard unit of electric current is the ampere (A).
It's named after French physicist André-Marie Ampère, who was a pioneer in the study of electromagnetism.
Here's a breakdown of what electric current is and how it's measured:
* Electric current: The flow of electric charge. Imagine it like a stream of water flowing through a pipe.
* Ampere (A): The unit of measurement for electric current. One ampere represents the flow of one coulomb (a unit of electric charge) per second.
