Which way are charges likely to move between two positions of different electrical potential energy one high and one low?

Negative charges tend to move towards the side that has a positive charge, and vice versa.


Do electrons tend to go to region of high potential or of low potential?

Electrons tend to go to an area of low potential to high potential. This is because an area with high potential is more positive and the charge on an electron is negative.


If a proton moved from 0 V potential to 5 V potential would its potential energy increase or decrease?

Electric field points from high potential to low potential. Positive particles had tendency to follow electric field. If you are moving the particle against this tendency you are doing work, and this work give more potential energy to the particle.


Do electron tends to go to region of high or low potential?

electrons are negatively charged so they tend to move towards the more positive charge which in this case would be high potential.


Do electron tend to move a region of high potential or lower potential?

Electrons always move 4m a region of low potential 2 higher. While electrons move 4m negative 2 positive terminal they continuously gain energy as work is done on them by the positive terminal to attract them 2wards it. In this process an energy equal to the work done on the electrons ( by the positive terminal ) is gained by the electrons. That is y, as electrons cum closer to the positive terminal they hav high potential stored in them..The electrons, in order to attain this high potential flow 2wards the positive terminal of a battery wen connected in a circuit...

What is the flow of electricity charge?

it is the rate at which electric charges pass though a conductor. The charged particle can be either positive or negative. In order for a charge to flow, it needs a push (a force) and it is supplied by voltage, or potential difference. The charge flows from high potential energy to low potential energy.


How are current and wind alike?

Current arises when "compressed" charges (high potential) expand into lower "pressure" areas (low potential). Wind is much the same.
