What is a flow of a charged particle called?
The charged particle that flows through circuits is an electron.
When charges continually shift from flowing in one direction to flowing in the reverse direction what current is there?
When charges continually shift direction, alternating currents (AC) are present. AC involves charges oscillating back and forth in a circuit, with the direction changing periodically. This is different from direct current (DC), where charges flow consistently in one direction.
What is two way current called?
Two-way current is called alternating current (AC). In AC, the flow of electric charge periodically reverses direction, unlike direct current (DC) where the flow of electric charge remains in one direction.
The opposition to the movement of charges flowing through a material is called what?
The opposition to the movement of charges flowing through a material is called resistance. It is a property that determines how strongly a material resists the flow of electric current.
Where do you find alternating and direct current?
alternative current Alternating current is produced by a type of generator called an alternator. Direct current is produces by a generator called a dynamo, or by rectifying altenating current, or solar panels, or cells and batteries.
The total opposition to an alternating current presented by a circuit is called a?
impedance
The opposition to the flow of electrical current?
In a DC circuit . . . resistance. In an AC circuit . . . impedance.
What is the opposition to voltage change called?
The opposition to voltage change in an electrical circuit is referred to as "impedance." Impedance is a complex quantity that encompasses both resistance and reactance, affecting how alternating current (AC) flows in a circuit. It determines how much a circuit resists changes in voltage and current. In direct current (DC) circuits, this opposition is simply referred to as resistance.
What is a device that moves an alternating current from one circuit to one or more other circuits called?
Transferrer
What is an opposition to current flow called that occurs in an alternating current circuit?
The resistance is called impedance, and is equal to the measured voltage divided by the measured current, through Ohm's Law (V = ZI, Z = V/I).
The opposition of current is called?
"Opposition to current" can refer to resistance, reactance, or impedance.
The opposition to the flow of electrons through a conductor?
In the simplest case, that would be resistance - but there is also another type of opposition (only relevant for AC) called reactance. The combined effect of resistance and reactance is called impedance.
What do you call a current that changes directions at a regular rate?
"alternating"
Current in which electrons flow in the same direction is called?
It's alternating current
What is the current called when electrons reverse regularly?
Alternating current aka AC.
What is the opposition to current flow in an AC circuit caused by an inductor called?
The opposition to current flow in an AC circuit caused by an inductor is called inductive reactance. It arises due to the inductor's ability to store energy in a magnetic field when current flows through it, which creates a phase difference between voltage and current. Inductive reactance increases with frequency, affecting how the circuit responds to alternating current.
Electric current changes direction repeatedly is called?
AC current (alternating current) like in a wall outlet
