Question

Electric charge can flow between two connected bodies if they ______.

Options

• are at same potentials

• are at different potentials

• are at zero potentials

• have the same electric charge

Answer 1

Electric charge can flow between two connected bodies if they are at different potentials.

Explanation:

Electric charge flows between two connected bodies when there is a potential difference between them. Conventional current flows from higher potential to lower potential, while electrons flow in the opposite direction. When both bodies attain the same potential, the net flow of charge stops.
