Answer
- The randomly moving electrons in a metal wire will start moving in a particular direction when a potential difference is applied across it.
The electrons in any conductor are under continuous motion but in random way. There's no net crossing of charge carriers through a given cross-section. Without potential difference, the electrons move randomly in all directions.The randomly moving electrons in a metal wire will start moving in a particular direction when a potential difference is applied across it.
