Well yes it does answer my question and also gives me some new facts, Thank you for this short and informative post :-)

You said that that flow of electron is current and in some cases it can be protons too. So basically flow of charges (weather positive or negative) can produce electric current. So if I move a charge (it can be a positively/negatively charged atom or it has to be only electron/proton?) around a solenoid it will cause change in the magnetic field around it; causing electric current to flow in solenoid (I know the current would be very weak). Right?

Hello everyone, this is my first post on the website so if I make any mistakes please be patient and guide me through. I'm in 10th grade and I read about electricity in my science class. In that we were told, flow of electrons produces electric current, after a few days I thought about it and developed some doubts: 1- What happens on movement of electron that electric current is produced? What is the magic magic behind the scene? 2- and if there is no logical reason, if it just happens and I take this as just a fact, like if A happens then B happens. If electrons flow, then electric current flows; won't this violet the law of conservation of energy. I mean electrons are moving so they are using some energy, but while using that energy they are also producing electrical energy. Is energy is being produced out of nowhere? Again, if you find me too dumb please don't be angry. I'm just a teenager and it's pretty normal for a boy of my age to act dumb. Thank you
