When do you say a current is flowing through a conductor?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine when a current is flowing through a conductor, we can break down the explanation into a series of steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution 1. **Understanding the Conductor**: - A conductor is a material that allows the flow of electric charge. Common examples include metals like copper and aluminum. 2. **Setting Up the Circuit**: ...
