The name for the potential difference that causes current to flow is voltage.
A difference of potential (which is measured in Volts) is needed to make current flow.
A potential difference, or voltage, is necessary for a sustained flow of electric charge through a conducting medium. This potential difference creates an electric field that pushes the charges through the conductor. Without a potential difference, the charges will not move and no current will flow.
Conventional current is the flow of positive charge from higher potential to lower potential, while electric current is the flow of electrons from lower potential to higher potential.
Increase or decrease in potential results in the change in direction of the flow of electric current.
because of potential difference.
Current flows through a wire when there is a difference in electric potential between two points. This potential difference creates an electric field that drives the flow of electric charge (current) through the wire.
See voltage means potential difference. Electrons move from higher potential to lower potential always. In wire same thing happens. So electrons flow because there is potential difference and flow of electrons causes current to flow. current is nothing but flow of electrons. reply if u r satisfied @ rahul.khaladkar@rediffmail.com
A potential difference (voltage) across the conducting medium is necessary for a sustained flow of electric charge. This potential difference creates an electric field that pushes the charges through the conductor. Without a potential difference, there would be no force to maintain the flow of charges.
Voltage across two terminals mean there exists a potential difference, and when the circuit gets closed, due to this potential difference the current flow.
potential difference make the current to flow. i think this can be compared with mechanical system as fluid flow as a result prssure difference between two points
Potential difference. Like the plus and minus on batteries...
