Superconductivity was first observed by the Dutch physicist Heike Kamerlingh Onnes.
He had developed a method to liquify helium and was therefore in a unique position
to perform experiments at low temperatures. In 1911, three years after his first helium liquefaction, Kamerlingh Onnes discovered that the resistance of solid Mercury
drops to zero when it is cooled below its critical temperature (4.1 K), for which he was awarded the 1913 Nobel prize of physics.

Why does lightning strike near water?
Lightning strikes strike near water because water is a good conductor of electricity. Most lightning strikes happen by the ocean because the salt makes it an even better conductor at electricity than fresh water.
What discovered that lightning on Jupiter is ten times stronger than lightning on earth?
Galileo Probe
Why is it necessary to install lighting conductor in multiplex building?
Tall structures attract lightning... Installing a conductor allows any strike to be safely guided to ground.
Air is the poor conductor but during lightning electric current passes through itwhy?
air becomes good conductor during lightning and thunderstorm as usually it is a bad conductor because when there is lightning the lightning bolt travel through air,an electron flow takes place. this electron flow through the air leaves behinfd it a little hollow channel in the air it produces charge and air gets charged with this and becomes good conductor during lightning and thundestorm. thanx.......... prachi singh india
What are the Advantages of air not being a conductor of electricity?
if air is a conductor of electricity ,then everyone will be undergone for great electric shock because air is everywhere . without air we cant live . Air can be a conductor but is a better insulator! An example of it conducting is lightning. If it was not a better insulator we would not be able survive. Another advantage is: the ability to string high voltage wires for the transmission of electricity.
When was Lightning Conductor - film - created?
Lightning Conductor - film - was created in 1938.
Is a lightning rod an electric conductor or an insulator?
conductor
Are lightning rod or plastic better metal lightning rods?
For a lightning conductor, we need an electrical conductor, so the iron would be superior.
