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.

Why does a seaweed not move in the same direction as waves?

Seaweed will move in the direction of the sea current. It's not able to move on its own, but can develop moving skills to get around.


Which would cause most of the free electrons to move in a conductor to move in the same direction?

The presence of an electric field would cause most of the free electrons to move in the same direction within a conductor. The electric field exerts a force on the electrons, causing them to move in the direction of the field. This movement of electrons is what constitutes an electric current.


In which direction will each compass point when there is a large current in the direction shown?

When there is a large current in the direction shown, each compass point will point in the same direction as the current.


Do electrons travel in the same direction in a circuit?

In a circuit, electrons flow from the negative terminal to the positive terminal of the voltage source (such as a battery). This flow of electrons is opposite to the conventional current direction, which is from positive to negative. So, while electrons themselves move in one direction, the conventional current moves in the opposite direction.


Do pulleys move in a same direction?

No, pulleys can be configured to move in the same or opposite directions. If the pulleys are set up with the same orientation, they will move in the same direction. However, by using different setups or arrangements, they can also be made to move in opposite directions.


Where do wormholes move?

Same direction as the worms.


What is the role of split rings in electric motors?

Split rings keep the current flowing in the same direction or the motor turning in the same direction when using alternating current which reverses direction in its cycle..


Describe the vibration of the colored ribbon. How does it move as waves pass by Does it move in the same direction as the wave?

The colored ribbon vibrates back and forth perpendicular to the direction of the wave as the waves pass by. It does not move in the same direction as the wave; rather, its movement is perpendicular to the wave's direction.


What is the name of the electric current which always flows in the same direction?

Direct current (DC) is the name of the electric current that always flows in the same direction. It is commonly used in electronics and power transmission systems.


What happens to the heating effect when the direction of current is reversed?

When the direction of current is reversed, the heating effect remains the same. The amount of heat generated is determined by the magnitude of the current and the resistance in the circuit, independent of the direction of the current flow.


What happens to the force generated by the circular coil of Relay if current direction is reversed?

As long as the amperage stays the same, the force in the relay stays the same regardless of direction of the current.


Which direction does the conventional flow of energy move?

The term "conventional flow" is usually used specifically for electricity, not for any kind of energy. If the current consists of electrons, then, if the electrons move in one direction, the conventional flow (a ficticious flow of positive charge) flows in the opposite direction. If the electric flow consists of positive charges, then the conventional flow and the physical, or real, flow, are in the same direction. An electron current is the most common case, though.
