A complete path for electric current to follow is called a?

An Electric PathA complete path for an electric current to follow is called a closed circuit. Ampere is the SI unit for measuring an electric current.


What does an electric current always follow?

The path of least resistance.


What path with an electric current always follow?

"least resistance"


Up to how many paths can an electric current follow?

There is no limit. If you have a TV, a light and a refrigerator, electric current can go through all three.


What is the path that electricity follow?

An electric current flows from negative to positive.


What is the complete path for an electric current to follow called?

The complete path for an electric current to follow is called a circuit. It includes a closed loop with a source of electricity, conductive material, and devices that use the electricity.


How many routes can an electric current go in?

An electric current can flow through multiple routes simultaneously in a parallel circuit. In a series circuit, the current has only one path to follow. The number of available routes for an electric current depends on the circuit configuration.


What electric charges can move if they have a blank path way to follow?

Electric charges with a closed pathway to follow can move. If there is a complete circuit with no breaks or gaps, charges such as electrons can flow through the pathway due to the presence of a voltage source, thereby creating an electric current.


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

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


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

DC current


What is the opposite of a electric current?

The opposite of an electric current is the absence of an electric current, meaning no flow of electric charge through a conductor.


Why doesn't all current move in the same direction?

Not all current flows in the same direction because electric energy does not follow the circular flow of electricity which results to direct and alternate current.
