What make the electrons to move in conductor with current?

In summary, the electrons in a conductor move due to the electric field created by a potential difference across the conductor. This electric field exerts a force on the electrons, causing them to move. The electric field is fixed and does not move with the electrons. The magnetic field does not exert a force on the electrons in the same way that the electric field does.

Which is that Coulomb repulsion, explain please. Thank you.
The Coulomb force, the electrostatic force felt between two charged particles. I intend no offence when I say this, but you are expecting us to teach you physics from the ground up. While we are all patient folk and don't mind discussing the subject(s) we love, it is not necessarily in your best interests to learn the basics of physics over a forum. It would be much more productive to invest in an elementary undergraduate physics textbook, which could offer far more extensive and thorough explanations than are even remotely possible on a forum.

Best wishes,
Hoot

hi
Hootenanny has explained very well.If you want a simpler explanation it follows
To create a flow of any substance you have to develop a didfference between its two ends.whether it is a tube full of water or a conductor.when a potential difference develops at the two ends of a conductor the electron starts moving from higher potenrial towards lower potential.Now how does this potential difference arises? the battery develops the potentialdifference whivh is measured in volts.ex 1.5 volt,9 volt ...
