Why do electrons continue to move in the same direction in an electric circuit with a potential difference?
In a circuit with a potential difference, electrons move in the same direction due to the influence of the electric field force. When the power supply is turned on, a large amount of negative charge (electrons) accumulates at the negative pole of the power supply, while a large amount of positive charge accumulates at the positive pole. These charges are separated within the power supply due to chemical reactions or other energy conversion processes, resulting in a potential difference, or volta
