Solution :
(a) An electric currrent is a flow of electric charges (electrons) through a conductor. Potential difference between the ends of the wire makes electric current to flow in the wire.
(b) When 1 coulomb of charge flows through any cross-section of a conductor in 1 second, the electric current flowing through it is said to be 1 ampere.
