What is the flow of electrons callled?

The flow of electrons is called an electrical current. Current is measured in Amps and flows from a positive voltage towards a negative voltage. The electrons themselves have a negative charge so they move or flow in the opposite direction to the flow of current.


What is trickle charge?

A trickle charge is a small amount of electricity that continuously flows. A trickle charge is used in many electrical applications.

In which circuit does charge reverse direction many times per second?

In an alternating current (AC) circuit, the electric charge periodically reverses direction at a certain frequency. This is in contrast to a direct current (DC) circuit, in which charge flows in one direction only.


Electrical current flows from a state of rest to a high pressure state?

False. Electrical current flows from a high pressure state (called hot) to a state of rest (called ground or neutral).


What does the retifier on gators do?

Assuming you mean "rectifier", a rectifier is an electrical device that converts AC, which periodically reverses direction, to DC, which flows in only one direction.
