Answer 2

Answer:

The electric current at any given cross section along the conductor in open circuit is zero.

Explanation:

• A flow of electrons (charges) occurs when we apply a potential difference across a conductor.
• The rate at which these electron flows is referred to as electric current.
• Current and electrons, however, flow in the opposite direction. While electrons go from negative to positive, current moves from positive to negative.
• The number of electrons traveling across a conductor's cross-section in one second determines the current.
• If the electric circuit is left open, there will be an incomplete route to drift the electron.
• In this instance, no drift velocity of the electron is measured, and hence no current flow in the circuit.
• Therefore, there is no current or "electron flow" via an open circuit because electrons are unable to traverse or move through an open circuit.
