What are the parts of an electrical current?

A flow of electrons is needed to have a current. And there (usually) must be a complete circuit. And you need a voltage to make the current move around your circuit. All tied up in Ohms Law - which I'll leave to you.


Where do the electrons come from in the circuit?

Electrons come from the atoms within the materials that make up the circuit. When a voltage source is connected to the circuit, it creates a potential difference that causes the free electrons in the material to move, creating an electric current.


How does a battery cause electrons to move through an electric circuit?

A battery creates an electric field within the circuit, which applies a force on the electrons, causing them to move. This movement of electrons creates an electric current that flows through the circuit, allowing electrical devices to function.


Do protons travel through an electric circuit at or near the speed of light?

No, protons do not travel through an electric circuit at or near the speed of light. In a circuit, electrons are the charge carriers that move through the wires at speeds much slower than the speed of light. Protons typically remain within the nucleus of an atom and do not move freely in a circuit.


What causes current to flow from one terminal of the battery to the other?

Current flows from one terminal of a battery to the other due to the movement of electrons within the circuit. When a circuit is completed, electrons are pushed by the battery's voltage to move through the circuit, creating an electric current.


The current I though all resistor is the same?

If you have one or more resistive elements in a circuit connected in series, the current through them will be the same.To make it easier to understand, think of the resistors as being bottlenecks in the circuit for the flow of electrons. The speed at which the electrons move in the circuit (aka - the current) is limited by the narrowest bottleneck. In this case, the narrowest bottleneck represents the most resistive element.


How are electrons related to electricity?

because electrons are the only particles that can move in an atom. so when current flows through a circuit it is really electrons moving


Electrons move in a circuit and have millions and millions of what?

Electrons move in a circuit and have millions and millions of collision's.


Why did Volta get an electric current when he connected the cells in a circuit?

Volta got an electric current when he connected the cells in a circuit because the cells produced a potential difference, or voltage, which created an electric field that allowed a flow of electrons to move through the circuit. This flow of electrons is what we call an electric current.


How does electricity flow from a battery through a circuit?

Electricity flows from a battery through a circuit when a complete path is created for the electrons to move. Electrons move from the negative terminal of the battery through the circuit to the positive terminal. This flow of electrons creates an electric current that powers the components in the circuit.


What unit measure the force that makes electron move in a electric current?

The force that causes electrons to move in an electric current is measured in volts, which is the unit of electrical potential difference. The flow of electrons is driven by this voltage, creating the current in the circuit.
