It doesn't. The current is the same in the resistor and the connecting wires. You can't think of current as as something where electric charge makes a journey from one battery terminal to the other encountering different series resistance along the way causing the current to increase or decrease.
Maybe something like "Current flow in batteries?" Actually a current will flow if you connect a conductor to any voltage, through simple electrostatics.
In the steady state of the circuit, the current before and after a resistor must be equal, because if there is a difference in current, there is a build up of charge inside the resistor that will go on forever. So the current next to the battery adjusts itself according to the resistance of the resistor.
In your battery example, there is no return current path so no current will flow. There is obviously a more deep physics reason for why this works but as the question asked for a simple answer I'll skip the math, google Maxwell's Equations and how they are used in the derivation of Kirchhoff's voltage law.
unfortunately it says nothing about ESR of batteries which is why Voltage decreases with rising current. In general, the answer to your your question is, "yes". As other answers have pointed out, a battery has an effective resistance. This is, in part, do to the fact that the internal structure has an intrinsic resistance.
Running the battery with a constant current load, I observed the output voltage gradually rise over time. The cause was fact that the internal power dissipation produced a temperature rise in the pack, and the output voltage rises (all else being equal) with temperature.
In complex circuits, the current may not necessarily flow in the same direction as the battery arrow, and the battery arrow makes it easier to analyze those circuits. We also …
The easiest way to think of it is this: Current will only ever flow in a loop, even in very complex circuits you can always break it down into loops of current, if there is no path for …

Electrical current transfers energy around circuits. There are two types of current: direct and alternating. Part of Combined Science Electricity
Generally your current limiting circuit will require a bit of voltage "headroom" to operate in. That means you''ll need an unregulated PSU of > 5 V and regulate it down to 5 V …
But, my question is: How the resistor reduces current from the starting of the path of current, i.e. from the point where the connecting wire is connected to the positive …
Battery Chargers: Battery chargers often use current limiting circuits to protect the battery from damage or reduced lifespan caused by overcharging. These circuits regulate the current flow into the battery, …
However, in a battery, you have an electron build-up that creates the voltage. Once current begins to flow, electrons are now moving through the circuit. Does this mean that …
I''ve heard that resistors are used to decrease current to a particular appliance, such as in the regulator of a fan. However, I''ve also heard that the total current in a circuit is always the same …
