	Ampere - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The ampere is defined first (it is a base unit, along with the metre, the second, and the gram), without reference to the quantity of charge.
		The unit of charge, the coulomb, is defined to be the amount of charge displaced by a one ampere current in the time of one second.
		The unit of electric charge, the coulomb, is defined in terms of the ampere: one coulomb is the amount of electric charge (formerly quantity of electricity) carried in a current of one ampere flowing for one second.

	Ampère's law - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In physics, Ampère's law, discovered by André-Marie Ampère, relates the circulating magnetic field in a closed loop to the electric current passing through the loop.
		It is the magnetic equivalent of Faraday's law of induction,
		To resolve the problem, he came up with the concept of displacement current and made a generalized version of Ampère's law which was incorporated into Maxwell's equations.

	Ampere
		Ampere was a very talented man who mastered all mathematics by the time he was twelve years old.
		He formulated a law of electromagnetism, known as Amperes law, which describes the magnetic force between two electric currents.
		Ampere was the first person to think of measuring techniques for electricity, the unit amps (A) is named after Ampere.

	Ohm's Law
		When a microscopic view of Ohm's law is taken, it is found to depend upon the fact that the drift velocity of charges through the material is proportional to the electric field in the conductor.
		The electric current in amperes which flows into any junction in an electric circuit is equal to the current which flows out.
		Along with the voltage law, this law is a powerful tool for the analysis of electric circuits.

	Ampere's Law, must the current extend to infinity?
		The method we use is: we construct a rectangular loop that one of the sides lies along the central of the solenoid, 1 side outside the solenoid and parallel to the previos one, and the remaining 2 sides connect the previos 2 sides and perpendicular to them.
		Ampere's law is valid (well, if you include the term added by Maxwell), no matter what.
		When a system is more complex and there is no obviosu symmetry, it is not that the law fails, it is rather than it is not very useful because it involves an integral very difficult to do.

	Kirchhoff's Current Law (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		We are already familiar with Kirchhoff's current law from parallel circuits, that is, the sum of the branch currents is equal to the total current entering the branches, as well as the total current leaving the branches (Figure 35).
		Kirchhoff's voltage law states that the sum of the voltage drops around a closed loop is equal to the sum of the voltage sources of that loop.
		Kirchhoff's current law states that the current arriving at any junction point in a circuit is equal to the current leaving that junction.

		To treat time varying fields, we are going to add another term to Ampere's law and we are going to introduce a new law called Faraday's law.
		The term which is added to Ampere's law was found by Maxwell in 1865.
		Therefor when the capacitor is charging, Amperes law would state that there is no enclosed current and hence the magnetic field is zero.

	What is Ohm's Law? - a definition from Whatis.com - see also: George Simon Ohm
		Ohm's Law is the mathematical relationship among electric current, resistance, and voltage.
		Suppose a resistance having a value of R ohms carries a current of I amperes.
		Also, in a DC circuit, if E volts appear across a component that carries I amperes, then the resistance of that component is equal to E/I ohms.

	Introduction to DC Circuits
		According to Ohm's law (Equation 1), current should increase proportionally to voltage for a constant resistance.
		Once, the circuit in Figure 4 was assembled, lamps B and C were very dim with respect to lamp A. This corresponds to the measured voltages across the lamps.
		Removing lamp A from the circuit opened the circuit and all of the lamps went out, but removing lamp B caused lamp C to become brighter, and the same for removing lamp C for B. To put Ohm's law to the test, the circuit in Figure 5 was assembled.

		As an acknowledgement for James Watt’s work on steam engines and defining the amount of work (power), physicists have defined a standard unit of power as a “Watt,” instead of the previously used horsepower.
		Given that standard residential and commercial receptacles use 15 or 20 amperes, Watt’s Law would say that the circuits that feed the receptacles would then have either 1800 or 2400 watts in power availability.
		Watt’s Law applies to many items, and the challenge is to distribute the various pieces of sound system gear so they do not add up beyond circuit power availability (capacity), or a potential “overload” may occur, resulting in a circuit breaker tripping or fuse blowing.
