Question

PLEASE HELP ME How does electricity flow? from low potential to high potential from high potential to low potential from series circuit to parallel circuit from conductor to insulator

Answer 1

The correct answer of this question is : From high potential to low potential.

EXPLANATION :

Before going to answer this question, first we have to understand the conventional rule for current flow.

As per the conventional rule of electricity, the current direction is opposite to the direction of electronic motion.

The current flows through a conductor is due to the motion of the free electrons. When the conductor or wire is attached to any electric source, the electrons are drifted towards the positive terminal of the source. Hence, electrons are moving from negative terminal to positive terminal.

As per the conventional rule, the current direction will be from positive terminal towards negative terminal i.e from higher potential to lower potential.

Hence, the correct answer of this question is from higher potential to lower potential .
