Current density: Measurement, Calculation of current densities in matter & In practice

In electromagnetism, current density is the electric current (or the amount of charge per unit time) that flows through a unit area of a chosen cross section. The current density vector is defined as a vector whose magnitude is the current density at a given point in space and whose direction is that of the motion of the positive charges at this point.…
