Problem
Electrons inside a straight copper wire are observed to drift from point P toward point Q. Which statement correctly identifies the direction of the conventional current in the wire?
(a) From P toward Q
(b) There is no conventional current because the charge carriers are negative
(c) From Q toward P
(d) There is no net conventional current because the electrons move too slowly
