Question

Why direction of electric current is opposite to direction of electrons

Answer 1

Answer:

Electrons being negatively charged flow from the negative terminal to the positive terminal of the voltage source. So, the actual direction of current should be from negative to positive terminal. ... So, the current flow is considered in the direction opposite to the direction of flow of electrons.

now please mark me as branliest

Answer 2

Answer:

The late discovery of electrons.

Explanation:

The direction of flow of positive charge is from the positive terminal of the battery/cell to the negative terminal through the circuit. Conventionally in the earlier times, only positive terminals were believed to exist. Thus, direction of flow of positive charge was taken as the direction of electric current.

Hope it helps. Pls rate and mark me as the brainliest (only if I could b of some help) <3
