Can electric current be made to flow from + to - and - to + at the same time?
And does it normally flow from + to - or - to +?
And does it normally flow from + to - or - to +?
The direction of electric current is from positive (+) to negative (-).
Electric current is defined as flowing from + to - because it follows the flow of electrons, which move from negatively charged particles to positively charged particles.
Yes, it is possible for electric current to flow in the opposite direction. This is known as reverse current and can occur in certain types of circuits or when the direction of the electric field is reversed.
The direction of electric current is determined by the direction of electron flow, which is opposite to the direction of conventional current (from + to -). In most circuits, the direction of conventional current is used for analysis and calculations.
No, not all materials conduct electric current in the same direction. In some materials, such as semiconductors, the direction of current can vary depending on external factors like temperature or applied voltage.
