The phrase "flow of electricity" refers generally to the movement of electrons (or other charge carriers) through a conductor in the presence of potential and an electric field. The "speed" of this flow has multiple meanings. In everyday electronics, the signals or energy travel quickly, as electromagnetic waves, while the electrons themselves move slowly.
This is what I have been trying to understand.
Would you agree, an audio signal traveling down a wire is energy in the form of an electromagnetic wave. The electromagnetic wave moves at near the speed of light. The electrons are basically just wiggling back and forth. (In an IC or speaker cable. No DC component in the audio signal.)
Do you agree or disagree?
