The electrons don't actually move the electricity; the charge moves. The electrons slowly drift in the opposite direction from the charge.

What causes short lifetime of battery How to prolong the lifetime of battery?
1)Reason: a.Charger or electro circuit can't be fit for the battery. b.Overcharge and overdischarge, etc. c.Battery can't comply with the charging requirement 2)Solution: a.Use the original charger. b.Charge the battery after it automatically powers off , then full charge the battery. c.Avoid erroneous usage of battery, such as heavy pressure, short circuit, fall off and so on.
What causes a short circuits?
-circuit damage -overheating -fire or explosion causes a short circuit.
What happens to the flow of electricity in an incomplete circuit?
It stops flowing. An analogy to this is the kitchen faucet ... water is always "at the ready" behind the valve, ready to flow when it is enabled. Same is true in an electrical circuit - once the circuit is broken (valve closed in above analogy) the flow of electrons ceases. If there is a light bulb which is not on it is a open circuit. If the light bulb is still on it is parallel circuit which has lot of wires causes some of the lights to go on and some to go of.
How would you describe what causes the seasons?
its earths tilt on its axis orbiting the sun
Does a discharging battery can cause health problems?
Not a 'discharging' battery. Depends on the type of battery. A lead acid battery gives off Hydrogen when 'charging', which could be hazardous to health, if a spark causes it to explode. A 'discharged' battery can have an impact on it's own health. Best to keep them charged.
How a battery causes electron to move in a circuit?
It is an oxidation/reduction reaction. Electrons flow from anode to cathode.
Does a battery supply the electrons in an electric circuit?
No, is it incorrect to say that a battery produces the charges that circulate in a circuit. Some might suggest that a battery is a current source, but the battery should most properly be considered a voltage source. It generates the electromotive force (emf or voltage) that causes charges to move. (It does this through electrochemical reactions.) The charges that circulate in a circuit (which might be termed the current flow) are already in the conductor and components. All the battery does is produce the voltage (the force) to move charges. Let's look at current flow and see why things might be best looked at in the manner we've stated.Note that the way a battery moves charges is to "inject" an electron into the circuit where it is tied to the negative terminal of that battery. The electron causes one electron in the circuit at the terminal to "move over" and that will cause another electron to "move over" and so on. This will continue until the "last electron" in the circuit at the positive terminal of the battery leaves the circuit and "goes into" the battery. Current flow in the circuit is like musical chairs with electrons everywhere in the circuit "moving over a space" to cause the current flow.Having gone through all that, it should be easier to see why a battery probably should not be considered the producer of charges that circulate in a circuit. Rather, the battery is the source of the voltage that drives the charges (the current) in the circuit.
What is the point of a battery?
If you did not have a battery, the circuit would not have any electricity to make a change on something. Basically, a battery is a power source. It creates a difference in charge (positive and negative ends) that causes a flow or electrons through the wire which is electricity!
When wires are connected to the terminals of a battery. what causes electric current in the circuit?
The resistance of the load is what causes an electric current to flow in a circuit.
When the wires are connected to the terminals of the battery what causes electric current in a circuit?
The resistance of the load is what causes an electric current to flow in a circuit.
What causes gasses in a battery?
Overcharging (bad voltage regulator) or a short circuit inside the battery.
When the wires are connected to the terminals of the battery what causes electric currents in the circuit?
The energy stored in the chemicals of the battery
Where do electrons originate that flow down?
There are electrons in every atom, and every part of an electric circuit is made up of atoms (or charged atoms, which are known as ions). The electrons actually move very slowly around the circuit, going from atom to atom. However, the effect which causes them to do this travels very fast (at the speed of light) around the circuit. This effect is caused by the source of what is known as electromotive force - the battery, or power supply.
What causes a car battery to bulge?
The bulging is caused by gassing. This is caused by overcharging or by a short circuit inside the battery. The acid inside the battery is turned to gas and it expands the sides of the battery.
How do batteries produce electricity?
The battery's chemical combination causes excess electrons to be produced and they want to to get out of Dodge City via the battery connectors.
Why does your battery light stay on in a 93 Eldorado?
There could be several causes for the battery charging circuit warning light remaining "ON," and some that come to mind at the moment include: * The battery is seriously undercharged. * The alternator or generator is not working. * There is a defect in the light circuit.
When wires are connected to the terminals of the battery what causes electric current in the circuit?
The voltage (V) between its terminals. ~Gabby
