Normal flow of electrons are from positive to a less negative potential. When a potential is applied meaning voltage electrons leave their orbit and move to another nucleus leaving at the same time a hole to be fill out by the next electron coming in. In essence electrons flow one way and holes flow in the opposite direction. It is possible to have -100v flowing into a -90v. electrons do not know what the potential can be raised to all they know is the differential potential of 10 v in this case
AnswerIt doesn't. If flows from a higher potential to a lower potential. Voltage means 'potential difference', which is quite different.
A 'higher potential' is conventionally taken as meaning 'more positive', while a 'lower potential' is taken as meaning 'less positive'. The direction of conventional current (plus to minus), therefore, is from a higher potential to a lower potential.
Electrons, on the other hand, move from negative to positive, so they move from a 'lower potential' to a 'higher potential'.
Electronsflow from areas of lower to higher voltage, while Current flow from areas higher to lower voltage.
The current that flows in a circuit for a given applied DC voltage is primarily limited by the circuit's resistance, as described by Ohm's Law (I = V/R). Higher resistance results in lower current flow for the same voltage, while lower resistance allows more current to flow. Additionally, factors such as the characteristics of circuit components (like diodes or transistors), the temperature of the materials, and the presence of any circuit protection devices can also influence the current.
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
the current will increase because of a lower level of resistance , hence more current will flow- easily
Reverse current.
Electronsflow from areas of lower to higher voltage, while Current flow from areas higher to lower voltage.
No, it is not true. An electrical current (which is a flow of electrons) can only flow from a higher pressure state (higher voltage) to a lower pressure state (lower voltage).
Yes, higher voltage typically results in higher current flow in a circuit, according to Ohm's Law.
Current flows from higher voltage to lower voltage. The total current entering a junction must equal the total current leaving the junction. Resistance in a circuit reduces the flow of current.
The factors that affect the speed of current flow include the material through which the current is flowing (conductivity), the cross-sectional area of the conductor, the voltage applied, and the resistance in the circuit. A higher conductivity material, larger cross-sectional area, higher voltage, and lower resistance will result in a faster current flow.
Voltage potential is the force that pushes electrical current through a circuit. The higher the voltage, the greater the potential for current flow. In other words, voltage drives the flow of current in a circuit.
An electric current will flow if there is a voltage, and a conducting path (usually a closed circuit is required).An electric current will flow if there is a voltage, and a conducting path (usually a closed circuit is required).An electric current will flow if there is a voltage, and a conducting path (usually a closed circuit is required).An electric current will flow if there is a voltage, and a conducting path (usually a closed circuit is required).
The current flowing through the heating coil will depend on the resistance of the coil and the voltage of the power source. Using Ohm's Law (I = V/R), where I is the current, V is the voltage, and R is the resistance, you can calculate the current. The higher the voltage or lower the resistance, the higher the current.
When you switch a voltmeter from a lower to a higher voltage range, an additional resistor is added in series with the meter, increasing the voltage necessary to create the same voltage drop across or current flow through the actual meter movement.
Tide = Flow of kinetic energy from higher ground to lower ground Wind = Flow of kinetic energy from higher pressure to lower pressure Electricity = Flow of electrical energy (transfer of kinetic energy) from higher voltage to ground or low voltage.
Voltage in a circuit can be compared to water pressure in a pipe. Just like higher water pressure allows water to flow faster and with more force, higher voltage in a circuit enables electric current to flow more easily and with more energy. Conversely, lower voltage results in slower and weaker flow of electric current, similar to low water pressure leading to a weaker flow of water.
The flow of electrons from a body at a higher voltage to one at a lower voltage is flow of current.
