So, the simplest model for how electricity behaves in a wire is that wires act like pipes through which electrons flow like water. That model, however, doesn’t really quite work, because electricity ...

A river erodes its course. In an electric circuit, does the wiring get eroded by the current, atoms, electrons etc? — Bill "It's a reasonable analogy to think of an electric current acting like ...

People use the words ‘tide’ and ‘current’ and ‘flow’ and ‘flood,’ but to describe this phenomenon – the speed of electrons moving through a wire – scientists use the term ...

Scattering between electrons in the material graphene can cause these particles to flow like a viscous liquid. Such flow, which has previously been detected using measurements of electrical ...
