Question

In a conductor electrons are flowing from B to A. What is the direction of convetional current?

Answer 1

Conventional current can be said as charge per unit time transported in a certain direction. The flow of conventional current is from positive terminal to the negative terminal that is positive charge carriers will cause the current to flow. The direction of conventional current is assumed to be opposite to that of flow of electrons. Therefore, in the given conductor the direction of convectional current is A to B, that is opposite to the direction of flow of electrons.
