Question

By convention, the direction of electric current in the external circuit is taken as:

विकल्प

• From the negative terminal to the positive terminal

• From the positive terminal to the negative terminal

• In the direction of electron flow

• Perpendicular to the flow of charge

Answer 1

By convention, current is taken to flow from the positive terminal to the negative terminal in the external circuit. This direction is opposite to the actual movement of electrons, so conventional current is opposite to electron flow.
