What happened to the electrodes as a result of the electric current flowing?
Several things happened to the electrodes as a result of the electric current flowing. The electrodes conduct the electrical current and makes the circuit complete.
What is the result when an electric current is interrupted?
It loses its power
Is the process of producing an electric current by moving a loop of wire through a magnetic field?
A current is induced in the conductor by the moving magnetic field (relative to the wire, the field is moving) I guess induction might be the term you are looking for.Another AnswerMoving a magnet through a loop of wire will induce a voltage, not a current, into a coil. If the coil forms a closed loop, then a current will result. But it's a voltage that's being induced, not a current -the current is merely the result of that voltage.
The damaging effects of electric shock result from the current that flows in the body.Why then do signs read Danger-High Voltage rather than Danger-High Current?
It is true that the magnitude of current flow through the body determines the effects that occur. The path taken through the body is also responsible for the final outcome. For example the extremities will survive with higher current flow than the heart. There are a lot of factors that effect the magnitude of current flow, body resistance can be one variable. This changes from person to person, and from day to day , as well as conditional. For example wet hands will reduce the resistance to current flow and increase the magnitude of current through the body, dry, dirty hands/skin will have the opposite effect. With all other factors being equal (body resistance, path of current etc) The one variable that will 'push' more current through the body is the voltage level. Low voltage (less than 50V) typically has little effect. Where high voltage such as 4160V dramatically decreases your odds of survival.
Why electric current is not vector quantity?
As has already been explained it is a scalor until it produces a result i.e. is used to do work.

If the resistance of an electric current is 12 ohms and the voltage in the current is 60 V the current flowing through the circuit is?
..using the formula Voltage(V)=Current(I) * Resistance(R) .. we can get the result ...current will be 5 Ampere

Why does a light bulb filament get hot when electric current flows through it?
That is the result of resistance in the wire. In energy terms, some of the energy in the electric current is converted into heat.
A W bulb and a W bulb are connected in series in a circuit Which bulb has the greater current flowing in it?
A series circuit is where there is only one path for the current. As a result, and as a direct consequence of Kirchoff's current law, the current at every point in a series circuit is the same. The two bulbs have the same current flowing through them.
What is the shape of the graph between volt and electric charge where Volt is the potential difference between the ends of an ohmic resisitor and electric charge is the current flowing through it?
-- If one axis of your graph represents the current flowing through the resistor, then label it "Current", not "Electric charge". There's a big difference between charge and current. -- Ideally, the current through an ohmic resistor is a linear function of the voltage across its ends, namely a direct proportion with the resistance being the constant of proportionality. -- Ideally, the graph is a straight line, with slope equal to the resistance in ohms, and y-intercept of zero. -- In reality, the resistor dissipates energy at the rate of (voltage) x (current) watts. It must warm up as a result, and the change in its temperature always has some effect on its ohmic resistance.
What was the result of Thomas Edison's work?
