why mass exist in any matter ?

WHY CURRENT FLOW IN OPPOSITE DIRECTION OF ELECTRON ?

^The electron flow is the ACTUAL direction of the current flow. However, in past times, the movement of electrons was not properly understood. As such, the scientists decided to keep the direction of current as flowing from higher potential to lower potential. "Potential" here refers to electric ve charge. You can reverse the direction of current flow and still achieve the exact same results (it is actually being done these days by solid-state physicists).

because the electrone have negative charge.on the other hand protons have positive charge so the direction of current is in direction of proton flow.

dear friend, for entrance exam of ISRO there are two parts of question paper in exams, such as

For ISRO exam you have to strong your technical subject like electronics and communication .

Prepare communication part very strong like
Analog communication
Digital communication
Satellite communication
Material engineering
Power electronics

Prepare with objective question so that concept will clear.

Also maintain your aggregate above 70% for eligiblity.

You can take part in ISRO exam you must be from either electronic and communication or mechanical or computer science.

You aggregate should also be above 70% they usually write 65% in notification if number of student increase a certain limit so they shortlist candidate on the basis of marks.

Position in ISRO are Scientist in fields like
analog communication,
digital communication,
Analog electronics
digital electronics
Satellite communication.

After your engineering you can enter in the fields like:

BARC
ISRO

Both give you designation as scientist.

ISRO is satellite research center.
BARC is atomic research center.
