The direction of a magnetic field produced by an electric current depends on the direction of the what?
Flow of the current.
How can magnets produce an electric current?
When a conducting material is moved through a magnetic field, a current starts to flow in the conductor. This is the principle of the electric generator.
What flows through a circuit and causes a magnetic field?
An electric current flowing through a circuit causes a magnetic field. This is due to the movement of electric charges, usually electrons, in the circuit. The magnetic field produced is perpendicular to the direction of the current flow.
When does the electric current flow?
An electric current will flow if there is a voltage, and a conducting path (usually a closed circuit is required).An electric current will flow if there is a voltage, and a conducting path (usually a closed circuit is required).An electric current will flow if there is a voltage, and a conducting path (usually a closed circuit is required).An electric current will flow if there is a voltage, and a conducting path (usually a closed circuit is required).
The flow of electrons through a conductor is called?
electric current
Controls the flow of electric current?
a generator
Can Magnetism cause an electric current to flow in a conductor?
Yes, a MOVING magnetic field will cause electric current to flow in a conductor. Conversely an electric current flowing in a conductor will cause a magnetic field.
What controls the flow of electric current?
EMF force or voltage
The direction of a magnetic field produced by an electric current depends on the direction of the what?
Flow of the current.
Can voltage flow with no amperage?
First of all, voltage doesn't flow. Voltage sets up an electric field. If the ends of this electric field are connected by a conductor, then current flows. So, if the question is "Can voltage exists with no current flow" the answer is Yes, for example a battery or a charged capacitor (although there may be some initial current flow to establish the electric field (e.g. charging the capacitor)). An electric field exists between the poles of the battery or capacitor. Current doesn't flow until the ends of that field are connected by a conductor (e.g. a light bulb).
Can you make an electrical current with an electrical field?
No. only flow of current develops electrical field. whereas magnetic field can make current to flow through a closed path. Absolutely YES. I wander how radios and TV works.AnswerYes, it is an electric field that causes current to flow in a circuit.
What is an electric current through a metal?
It's flow of electrons under directing external electric field.
What is electricomagnet?
An electromagnet is a type of magnet in which the magnetic field is produced by the flow of electric current. The magnetic field disappears when the current ceases.-wikipedia
The flow of electric charges is called?
The flow of electric charges is current.
How can magnets produce an electric current?
When a conducting material is moved through a magnetic field, a current starts to flow in the conductor. This is the principle of the electric generator.
What is the flow electric charges called?
It is called an electric current.
What controls current?
The load resistance in the circuit controls the current flow.
