voltage is applied to a conductor to cause a current flow
When a voltage is applied across it.
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.
The free electrons in a conductor will, when a difference of potential (voltage) is applied at its ends, participate in electron current flow (or just current, if you prefer). The voltage applied to the conductor will drive current through the conductor, and the free electrons will support current flow. These electrons will actually move through the conductor. As electrons are driven into one end of the conductor, the free electrons "shift over" and electrons stream out the other end of the conductor. This is the essence of current flow in conductors.
An electric current is caused by the flow of charged particles, typically electrons, through a conductor. When there is a potential difference (voltage) applied across a conductor, the free electrons will move in response to this voltage, creating a flow of electric current.
In a conductor, free electrons are present that can move when an electrical charge is applied. These free electrons are responsible for the flow of current through the conductor.
The terminology for a steady flow of electrons through a conductor is called the current of the circuit.
Current flows in a conductor when there is a potential difference applied across it, creating an electric field that causes the movement of free electrons in the conductor. The electrons flow from the negative terminal to the positive terminal of the voltage source.
No, a depletion region is not a good conductor. It is an insulating region formed in a semiconductor material when a voltage is applied, creating a barrier to the flow of current.
An electric current is driven through a conductor by the force of voltage or potential difference applied across the ends of the conductor. This force pushes the free electrons in the conductor, causing them to move in a particular direction, thus creating an electric current flow.
It is easier to create a current in a conductor because conductors have free-flowing electrons that can move easily when a voltage is applied, allowing for the flow of current. Insulators, on the other hand, have tightly bound electrons that do not move freely, making it more difficult to establish a current flow in them.
An electric current is produced when electrons flow through a conductor, such as a wire. Factors that influence the generation of an electric current include the voltage applied, the resistance of the conductor, and the presence of a closed circuit.
Yes, the flow of electric charges through a material is known as electric current. This flow of charges typically involves the movement of electrons in a conductor when a voltage is applied across it.
