Question

Question 6 of 10Which of the following statements does not apply to current in a circuit?O A. It is the flow of electric charge.B. It is measured in amperes.C. It flows only in an open circuit.D. It is defined as moving from the positive to the negative terminalof a batterySHIRAIT

Answer 1

Answer:

C. It flows only in an open circuit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that current :

• is the flow of electric charge across a surface

,

• has its unit as ampere

,

• moves in opposite directions to the electric charges/electrons

,

• is moving from the positive to the negative terminal

An open circuit does not allow the the flow of electric current. Therefore current does not flow in an open circuit. The flow of current takes place in a short circuit cell. Therefore, the statement "it flows only in an open circuit" is a
