When is thene an electric current in the conductor |
| Answer» An\xa0electric current\xa0is a flow of particles (electrons) flowing through wires and components. It is the rate of flow of charge. If the\xa0electric\xa0charge flows through a\xa0conductor, we say that there is an\xa0electric current\xa0in the\xa0conductor. In the circuits using metallic wires, electrons constitute a flow of charges.\xa0Current\xa0can\xa0flow through a conductor\xa0only when an\xa0electric\xa0field is established\xa0inside\xa0it. An\xa0electric\xa0field exists\xa0inside\xa0the\xa0conductor, as it is connected to the battery. Thus,\xa0current flows through\xa0the\xa0conductor. | |
