Does current always go from positive to negative?

We call this Conventional Current Flow, where imaginary positively charged particles are repelled away from a positive charge and attracted towards a negative charge.The reality is that electrons are actually flowing through the conductor. Electrons are negatively charged particles and flow from negative to positive. It's just easier to think of a positive current flowing than a negative current.


What is the function of grid?

it accelerate the motion of electron emitted by the filament if given a positive charge, similarly if negative voltage to grid the current flow through the grid is reduced. the more positive grid shows less current.


What current has a negative sign and what does it indicate?

Electrical current in copper is the flow of electrons which are negaitve charge particles. In a typical battery, electrons flow from the negative (bottom) side to the positive (top, nipple) side. However, the engineering convention is to call the "plus" side of the battery the source so current is said to flow from the plus side to the negative side -- which is the opposite to the physical flow of electrons.


Is polarity negative or positive?

Yes. Electrons always flow from the negative pole to the positive pole. In a Direct current(DC) circuit, one pole is always negative, the other pole is always positive and the electrons flow in one direction only. In an alternating Current (AC) circuit the two poles alternate between negative and positive and the direction of the electron flow continually reverses. In DC circuits (e.g. for a battery) positive is usually marked red and negative is usually marked black, but other color schemes are very common in automotive and telecommunications systems. In AC systems which are at no point connected to earth (unlike domestic mains wiring where the neutral is commonly earthed at substations and generators) polarity is not important as the two wires alternate polarity many times per second.

Is a electric current a flow of negative charges?

Electrons are a negative charge. Using conventional notation current flows from positive to negative poles of a battery, for example. In electron flow convention the electrons flow from negative to positive.

Where do electric current move?

Electric current moves through wires or conductive materials in a closed loop circuit, from the positive terminal of the power source to the negative terminal. Electrons carry the negative charge and flow from the negative terminal to the positive terminal.


The flow of current in electrodes is in which direction?

The flow of current in electrodes is from the negative electrode (anode) to the positive electrode (cathode). This flow is conventionally considered as the direction of electron flow.


Is conventional current noun?

The term 'conventional current' is a singular, common, compound noun; a word for current flowing from positive to negative as opposed to electron flow where current flow is from negative to positive.
