9 Basics of Current Electricity Calculators

Electric Current given Drift Velocity
Go Electric Current = Number of Free Charge Particles per Unit Volume*[Charge-e]*Cross-Sectional Area*Drift Speed
Drift Speed given Cross-Sectional Area
Go Drift Speed = Electric Current/(Number of Electrons*[Charge-e]*Cross-Sectional Area)
Drift Speed
Go Drift Speed = (Electric Field*Relaxation time*[Charge-e])/(2*[Mass-e])
Electromotive Force when Battery is Discharging
Go Electromotive Voltage = Electromotive Force-Electric Current*Resistance
Electromotive Force when Battery is Charging
Go Electromotive Voltage = Electromotive Force+Electric Current*Resistance
Electric Field
Go Electric Field = Electric Potential Difference/Length of Conductor
Current Density given Electric Current and Area
Go Electric Current Density = Electric Current/Area of Conductor
Current Density given Resistivity
Go Electric Current Density = Electric Field/Resistivity
Electric Current given Charge and Time
Go Electric Current = Charge/Total Time Taken
