It is the flow of electric charge per unit time. The ampere is one of the seven base units in the International System of Units (SI). It is named after Andr\u00c3\u00a9-Marie Amp\u00c3\u00a8re, a French physicist and mathematician who is considered one of the founders of electromagnetism.<\/p>\n<p>A volt is the SI unit of electric potential difference, electric potential, electromotive force, and electric tension. It is named after Alessandro Volta, an Italian physicist and chemist who invented the voltaic pile, the first electric battery.<\/p>\n<p>A watt is the SI unit of power. It is equal to one joule of energy per second.
