Electricity is in the form of electrons, which have mass. Everything that has mass is influenced by gravity. Therefore, why doesn’t electricity fall down to the ground due to being influenced by gravity?

    Think of it like this–electrons moving in a circuit is like water moving through a hose. You could pump water up to that crane, right? Electrons in a wire are so much more incredibly lighter than water, so they’re that much easier to move against gravity as well.
