: What’s the basic concept of electricity, what is it and how does it work?
In: Engineering
Electrons can jump from atom to atom in conductive wires. If you imagine marbles filling a marble-sized pipe, pushing a marble into one end of the pipe will cause one to pop out the other side. The pressure (voltage) I push the marbles with determines the exit pressure. The rate at which I introduce marbles determines the mass flow (charge flow/current) of marbles per second.
