Physics
The conventional current is in a direction …………… the direction of motion of electrons.
- parallel
- normal
- opposite
- none of the above
Answer
opposite
Reason — Conventionally, the direction of current is taken positive in the direction of flow of positive charge. Therefore, conventionally, the current will be negative in the direction of flow of electrons. Hence, current is in a direction opposite to the direction of motion of electrons.
