- The Present The present is the time that is associated with the events perceived directly, not as a recollection or a speculation. It is often represented as a hyperplane in space-time, often called now, although modern physics demonstrates that such a hyperplane can not be defined uniquely for observers in relative motion. The present may also be viewed as a
Science and Mathematics
- Electric current Electric current means, depending on the context, a flow of electric charge or the rate of flow of electric charge (a quantity). This flowing electric charge is typically carried by moving electrons, in a conductor such as wire; in an electrolyte, it is instead carried by ions, and, in a plasma, by both
- Current (fluid), including
- Ocean currents An ocean current is a continuous, directed movement of ocean water generated by the forces acting upon this mean flow, such as breaking waves, wind, Coriolis force, temperature and salinity differences and tides caused by the gravitational pull of the Moon and the Sun. Depth contours, shoreline configurations and interaction with other currents
- Air currents
- Current (stream) A current, in a river or stream, is the flow of water influenced by gravity as the water moves downhill to reduce its potential energy. The current varies spatially as well as temporally within the stream, dependent upon the flow volume of water, stream gradient, and channel geometrics. In tidal zones, the current in rivers and streams may reverse - currents in rivers and streams
- Current (mathematics), geometrical current in differential topology
- The conserved current In physics a conserved current is a current, jμ, that satisfies the continuity equation . The continuity equation represents a conservation law, hence the name or "Noether current" in physics and mathematics
