Электрический ток – упорядоченное движение электрически заряженных частиц под воздействием электрического поля. Такими частицами могут являться: в проводниках – электроны, в электролитах – ионы (катионы и анионы), в полупроводниках – электроны и дырки (электронно-дырочная проводимость).
Исторически принято, что направление тока совпадает с направлением движения положительных зарядов в проводнике. При этом, если единственными носителями тока являются отрицательно заряженные частицы (например, электроны в металле), то направление тока противоположно направлению движения электронов.
Скорость направленного движения частиц в проводниках зависит от материала проводника, массы и заряда частиц, окружающей температуры, приложенной разности потенциалов и составляет величину, намного меньшую скорости света. Несмотря на это, скорость распространения собственно электрического тока равна скорости света, то есть скорости распространения фронта электромагнитной волны.
Различают постоянный и переменный ток.
Постоянный ток – ток, направление и величина которого слабо меняется во времени.
Переменный ток – это ток, направление и величина которого меняется во времени. Среди переменных токов основным является ток, величина которого изменяется по синусоидальному закону. В этом случае потенциал каждого конца проводника изменяется по отношению к потенциалу другого конца проводника попеременно с положительного на отрицательный и наоборот, проходя при этом через все промежуточные потенциалы (включая и нулевой потенциал). В результате возникает ток, непрерывно изменяющий направление: при движении в одном направлении он возрастает, достигая максимума, затем спадает, на какой-то момент становится равным нулю, потом вновь возрастает, но уже в другом направлении и также достигает максимального значения, спадает, чтобы затем вновь пройти через ноль, после чего цикл всех изменений возобновляется. Время, за которое происходит один такой цикл (время, включающее изменение тока в обе стороны), называется периодом переменного тока. Количество периодов, совершаемое током за единицу времени, носит название частота. Частота измеряется в герцах, один герц соответствует одному периоду в секунду.
