Why Current(Ampere) is chosen as Fundamental Quanties not Charge(coulomb) ?..

Answer / siva kumar

Current is flow of electrons/charge with respect to time i.e.,
6.241 × 10^18 electrons, or one coulomb passing through a
conductor in one second is called 1 Ampere. 1 Ampere = 1
coulomb/sec

Why Current(Ampere) is chosen as Fundamental Quanties not Charge(coulomb) ?..

Answer / narendra mishra

amperes can be broken down
into coulombs and seconds, the coulomb cannot be broken
down (except to a
specific count of electrons or protons). Why does there
seem to be some
contradiction between the definition of a fundamental
quantity (a quantity
that can't be described in terms of another quantity)
