Voltage is the pressure that pushes current through the resistance of the conductor.
Ohm's Law: E=IR can be rewritten as I=E/R to explain this. "I" is the intensity measured in amps, "E" is the electromotive force measured in volts, and R is the resistance measured in ohms. Voltage divided by the resistance equals the amperage. The voltage pushes valence electrons out of orbit from one atom into the next atom.

A flow of electrical charges is known as an?
A flow of electrical charges running through a medium is known as an electrical current.
What does a load do to the flow of electrical current in a series circuit?
A load increases the flow of electrical current in a series circuit. No load, no flow.
Difference between electrical current and electrical charge?
current is the flow of charge.
What device is used to adjust the flow of electrical current?
A device used to adjust the flow of electrical current is called a resistor.
What causes a current in an electrical current?
Electrons flow because of electrical attraction and repulsion.
What is the flow of current through a wire known as?
The flow of current through a wire is known as electrical current.
In automotive electrical circuits current is considered to flow from?
In automotive, electrical circuits current is considered to flow from the battery. Most cars will have a 12-volt battery which will provide the electrical circuits current.
An electrical current will always flow?
An electrical current will only flow in a closed loop or circuit where there is a complete path for the electricity to follow. If there is a break in the circuit or an open switch, the current will not flow.
How does a resistor affect the flow of current in an electrical circuit?
A resistor restricts the flow of current in an electrical circuit by resisting the flow of electrons. This causes a decrease in the amount of current that can pass through the circuit.
What is a current in electricity?
The flow of electrons is called an electrical current.
What is the name for the flow of electrons in an electric circuit?
A flow of electrons in an electrical circuit is called a current, which is the name given to the amount of electrical charge flowing in a certain period of time.Any total quantity of electrical charge is measured in coulombs.Any flow of electrical current is measured in amps.1 amp is equal to a flow of 1 coulomb of electrical charge in one second of time.
