MCQ
Which type of current is flowing through a circuit?
- AStatic current
- BConventional current
- ✓Electronic current
- DPotential current
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
Electronic current
The carriers of electric current are electrons. The current in a circuit is due to the flow of electrons. Therefore, the direction of the conventional current is opposite to the direction of flow of electrons.
