Question

In an electric circuit, the conventional current flows from positive to the negative terminal of the battery.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A

True

In an electric circuit, the conventional direction of current is taken as the direction in which a positive charge would move. ie., from positive to negative terminal of the battery. Thus, the current in the external circuit is directed away from the positive terminal and toward the negative terminal of the battery. Electrons would actually move through the wires in the opposite direction.
