Answer 1

the flow of electricity along a path is called an electric current.

Answer 2

Heya!!

Here is your answer.

$\textbf{The flow of electricity is called electric current.}$

$Now\:go\:through\:these\:for\: understanding$

✨The voltage applied across a device causes current to flow through it. The greater the voltage across a device, the greater is the current through it.

✨A path along which an $\underline{electric\: current}$ can flow is called an electric circuit.

Q-What causes current to flow?

Ans:-The voltage applied a device causes current to flow through it. Voltage is somewhat like the pressure of water in a tank.

NOTE:- The greater the voltage across a device, the greater the current through it.

Q-What happens if we connect a bulb across a 1.5-V(volts) cell and then across a 3-V battery?

Ans:-Since the voltage across a device determines the current through it, the current flowing through the bulb in the second case is more.As a result, the bulb glows more brightly in the second case.
