@VD15@alyx@Jens_Rasmussen@themilkman most people don't understand electricity on a intuitive level, because it's not taught on an intuitive level, because none of the textbook writers understand it on a intuitive level
@VD15@alyx@Jens_Rasmussen@themilkman "electricity" as most people think of it isn't "electrons" but "electromotive force"; you can generate voltage by the movement of protons as well as electrons.
power is also transferred on both portions of a circuit.
@EssentialUtinsil@VD15@Jens_Rasmussen@sickburnbro@themilkman I'll be honest, I don't remember exactly how it was taught to me in school, but I think it was more of a "this electron bumps into and pushes the next electron over, which bumps and pushes the next one, etc".
@sickburnbro@VD15@alyx@Jens_Rasmussen@themilkman do they actually teach people that electricity is 'electrons moving in a line through a wire'? i'm an electrical engineer so i don't actually know how a normal person understands electricity lol.
