Hi,
I have a doubt in my mind about the behaviour of Good Conductors. So far whatever we studied,
1. Good Conductors have free electrons to move and carry the charge,
2. Electric charge is being carried in form of electrons.
Now the question is Suppose, we have piece of good conductor(copper).
B(+) =====COPPER_WIRE======== (-)A
Scenario 1
---------------
In above arrangement, in the copper is connected to (-)ive charged source (point A),
and point B is open in the air..
: How come the (-)charge will flow from Point A to the loose end point B.
When we say Point A is Negative source, Is it like a electron gun, bombarding free electrons and pushing electrons into the metal wire ?
: If there is no electron gun of free electrons and its only the charge(more exicted state of electron) which is getting transferred from electron to electron, then charge should also flow thru bad conductors also. Atleast the charge(excited state) of electron can be transferred from rigid packed electron of the atom of any bad conductor.
: Now charge cannot flow thru bad electrons as we all know, and hence we need free electrons to take the charge and move further to +ive side or somewhere.. but in a finite direction..
: But isn't a situation will come, where are the free electrons are clubbed at the B side of wire, and there will not be any free electron on A side, As all the electron are already moved and carried the charge. Then how come wire will still be Good Conductor.
Please anyone try to explain the core, I know I am loosing some basics here
Thanks in advance
