The flow of electric charges is called?

The flow of electric charges is current.


What do you mean by magnetic affect of electric?

The magnetic effect of electric current is known as electromagnetic effect. It is observed that when a compass is brought near a current carrying conductor the needle of compass gets deflected because of flow of electricity. This shows that electric current produces a magnetic effect.


What is the flow electric charges called?

It is called an electric current.


What is the difference between an electric discharge and an electric current?

An electric discharge is a sudden flow of electricity between two charged points, often resulting in a spark or lightning. An electric current is a continuous flow of electric charge along a conductor, such as a wire. While both involve the movement of electricity, an electric discharge is typically a short-lived event, whereas an electric current is sustained over time.


Is it true that in phenomenon known as the Doppler effect electric current will flow when light shines on certain substances?

It is not true that the Doppler effect has anything to do with electricity and the flow of current. The Doppler effect involves pitch and sound frequency of moving objects, for example the apparent noise changes of an approaching car.


What is the continuous flow of electric charges through a material?

Yes, an electric current is the flow of charged particles.


What does an electric circuit provide for the flow of electric current?

It doesn't necessarily have a 'function'; it is simply the natural consequence of applying a potential difference across a conductor. However, this is usually done for a reason, and its function is then derived from one or other of the three effects of that current:heating effect -e.g. electric heatersmagnetic effect -e.g. electric motorschemical effect -e.g. electrolysis (electroplating)


A static discharge differs form an electric current in that a static discharge?

A static discharge is a sudden flow of electricity between two objects with different electric potential, whereas an electric current is a continuous flow of electric charge in a closed circuit. Static discharge occurs due to a build-up of static electricity, while electric current flows due to an applied voltage.


Compare and contrast an electric discharge with an electric current?

An electric discharge is the sudden flow of electricity through a gas, liquid, or vacuum due to a buildup of charge, often resulting in a visible spark. In contrast, an electric current is a continuous flow of electric charge through a conductor. While both involve the movement of charged particles, the key difference is that an electric discharge is a temporary and often localized event, whereas an electric current is a sustained, directed flow of charge.


What is the direction of flow of electric current in an electric current?

DC current


How does a static discharge differ from an electric current?

It doesn't differ at all, an electric current is electricity that is moving in a current and when static electricity is discharged from an object it creates a current from one object to another


What is a continuous flow of electricity is called?

A current.
