What is the name for the potential difference that causes current to flow?

The name for the potential difference that causes current to flow is voltage.


What is necessary in order to push current through a conductor?

A difference of potential (which is measured in Volts) is needed to make current flow.


What condition is necessary fpr a sustained flow of electric charge through a conducting medium?

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.


What is the difference between conventional current and electric current?

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.


How does the increase or decrease of potential difference affect the flow of the electric current?

Increase or decrease in potential results in the change in direction of the flow of electric current.


How is current flow in an AC-DC converter?

because of potential difference.


Why does the current flow through wire?

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.


In a wire electrons moves by current or voltage?

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


What condition is necessary for a sustained flow electric charge through a conducting medium?

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.


How does voltage produce current?

Voltage across two terminals mean there exists a potential difference, and when the circuit gets closed, due to this potential difference the current flow.


What is the reason behind the flow of electric current?

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


What do you need to have a flow of current?

Potential difference. Like the plus and minus on batteries...
