CAIE IGCSE Physics 4.2.2.6 Conventional Current Is From Positive Questions

Learn that conventional current flows from positive to negative while electrons move in the opposite direction, and apply both directions to circuit diagrams.

Exam points

Draw conventional current from positive to negative around a circuit, draw electron flow from negative to positive opposite to current, and identify electrons as moving charge carriers through components and meters.
