What is the relationship between the direction of current and direction of electron flow in a current-carrying wire?
because the current is actually the flow of electrons.
What happens to a positron when it encounters a magnetic field?
just like an electron, its path curves but in the opposite direction.
When electrons are moving from negative pole to positive pole in the circuit then current in the circuit will be moving in which direction?
always current flow from the opposite direction of electron
Is a proton the opposite of a electron?
No. The opposite of an electron is an antielectron or positron, which has exactly the same mass but opposite charge. A proton has opposite charge from that of an electron, but it is about 1836 times more massive.
Would a force have to be applied in the same or opposite direction to stop a moving ball?
The opposite direction. To stop a moving object requires an acceleration in the direction opposite its motion.
What is the relationship between the direction of current and direction of electron flow in a current carrying wire?
the directions are opposite to each other
What is the relationship between the direction of current and the direction of electron flow in a current carrying wire?

What flow is equal to and opposite of electron flow?
The "flow of current" is considered to be in the opposite direction.
What is the relationship between the direction of current and direction of electron flow in a current-carrying wire?
because the current is actually the flow of electrons.
Is a proton a subatomic particle carrying a charge equal to but opposite that of an electron.?
Yes.
Why the current is flowing in opposite direction in cables?
the charge of the electron is negative
Do Diodes have the ability to block electron flow in one direction and pass electrons in the opposite direction.?
yes
Why do electron n positron move in opposite directions in pair production and how does momentum is conserved when they move in opposite directions?
They move in opposite directions when in a magnetic field because they have opposite charges. The force on a particle depends on its charge -- make the charge completely opposite, and the force on it will be completely opposite. Momentum is conserved when they move in opposite direction (that is, in their center of mass frame) because their respective masses are identical. One electron mass moving in one direction plus one electron mass moving in the opposite direction means a total momentum of zero. The system begins with zero momentum and ends that way.
What will be the effect on the motion of electron if it travels along the dirction of electric field?
The "direction" of the electric field is defined as the direction of the force it exerts on a small positive charge. The direction of the force on an electron in the field is exactly opposite to the direction of the field, and its effect is to accelerate the electron in the direction of the force.
What happens to a positron when it encounters a magnetic field?
just like an electron, its path curves but in the opposite direction.
When electrons are moving from negative pole to positive pole in the circuit then current in the circuit will be moving in which direction?
always current flow from the opposite direction of electron
When an electron in H changes it's spin from the same to the opposite direction as the proton?
emits radio wave photon.
