With direct current, the charge flows only in one direction. With alternating current, the charges slosh back and forth, continually reversing direction.

We know that the current (I) flows from the positive to the negative electrode in the external circuit during discharge. Does the current go from negative to positive potential
AI Customer Service$begingroup$ There is a convention for the technical direction of the current: positive current flows from the plus pole of a battery to the minus pole by convention. The
AI Customer ServiceMany electrical engineers say that, in an electrical circuit, electricity flows one direction: out of the positive terminal of a battery and back into the negative terminal. Many electronic technicians
AI Customer ServiceAs a battery discharges, chemical energy stored in the bonds holding together the electrodes is converted to electrical energy in the form of current flowing through the load. Consider an
AI Customer ServiceYes. When a battery is operating normally then current flows inside the battery from the negative terminal to the positive terminal.
AI Customer ServiceYes. When a battery is operating normally then current flows inside the battery from the negative terminal to the positive terminal.
AI Customer ServiceThis physics video tutorial provides a basic introduction into the electric battery and conventional current. The electric battery converts chemical energy
AI Customer ServiceVoltage is the energy per unit charge. Thus a motorcycle battery and a car battery can both have the same voltage (more precisely, the same potential difference between battery terminals),
AI Customer ServiceElectrons from the positive plate are attracted to the positive terminal of the battery, and repelled from the negative terminal, that''s what causes current to flow. Inside the
AI Customer ServiceAn electric current that regularly changes its direction and size., the direction of electron flow continually reverses. Learn more on electrical charge and current in this podcast Listen to the
AI Customer ServiceIn complex circuits, the current may not necessarily flow in the same direction as the battery arrow, and the battery arrow makes it easier to analyze those circuits. We also
AI Customer ServiceIdeally, a diode provides unimpeded flow for current in one direction (little or no resistance), but prevents flow in the other direction (infinite resistance). Its schematic symbol looks like this:
AI Customer ServiceThe direction of conventional current is always represented in the direction that positive charge would flow, from the positive terminal to the negative terminal. The conventional current flows from the positive terminal to the negative
AI Customer ServiceA battery is recharged by applying external voltage, prompting the current to flow in the opposite direction. This process restores the original chemical compositions at the
AI Customer ServiceIn solids, an electric current is the flow of free electrons in one direction. is a flow of charge, and in a wire this will be a flow of electrons. We need two things for an electric current to flow:
AI Customer ServiceFor some electrodes, though not in this example, positive ions, instead of negative ions, complete the circuit by flowing away from the negative terminal. As shown in the figure, the direction of current flow is opposite to the direction of
AI Customer ServiceA battery is recharged by applying external voltage, prompting the current to flow in the opposite direction. This process restores the original chemical compositions at the
AI Customer ServiceA direct current is one that always flows in the same direction rather than alternating back and forth. Batteries produce direct currents.
AI Customer ServiceThe Army and Navy decided that electron flow was more appropriate than conventional current flow, so they developed all of their classes and training materials using electron flow. After the war, electron flow caught on and
AI Customer ServiceAs a battery discharges, chemical energy stored in the bonds holding together the electrodes is converted to electrical energy in the form of current flowing through the load. Consider an example battery with a magnesium anode and a nickel
AI Customer ServiceThe easiest way to think of it is this: Current will only ever flow in a loop, even in very complex circuits you can always break it down into loops of current, if there is no path for
AI Customer ServiceWhen the battery is supplying power (discharging) to, e.g., the starter motor, the direction of the electric current is out of the positive terminal through the load and into the negative terminal..
AI Customer ServiceMany electrical engineers say that, in an electrical circuit, electricity flows one direction: out of the positive terminal of a battery and back into the negative terminal. Many electronic technicians say that electricity flows the other
AI Customer ServiceThe theories and books all said that in a circuit, electrical current flows out of the positive terminal of a battery, and returns into the negative terminal. However, the new discoveries concluded that, contrary to conventional wisdom, electrons flowed the other direction.
During the discharge of a battery, the current in the circuit flows from the positive to the negative electrode. According to Ohm’s law, this means that the current is proportional to the electric field, which says that current flows from a positive to negative electric potential.
I would appreciate it very much. There is a convention for the technical direction of the current: positive current flows from the plus pole of a battery to the minus pole by convention. The microscopic details of conduction in a specific medium/conductor are a different thing. In some conductors, like metals, it is actually electrons that flow.
Maybe something like "Current flow in batteries?" Actually a current will flow if you connect a conductor to any voltage, through simple electrostatics.
Editor’s note, 2/13/2020: Per reader requests, we have uploaded model files to go along with this blog post to the Application Gallery entry “ Potential Profile in Batteries and Electrochemical Cells “. We find out if the electric currents in batteries flow backwards by studying the potential profile inside a battery.
Many electrical engineers say that, in an electrical circuit, electricity flows one direction: out of the positive terminal of a battery and back into the negative terminal. Many electronic technicians say that electricity flows the other direction: out of the negative terminal of a battery and back into the positive terminal.
