Why telephone cables are single stranded?
They arent. Most are either 2 or 4 conductor. EDIT: Telephone cables in the UK consist of either four or six-core cable - depending on the circumstances of the installation. Each strand of the cable is a single wire wrapped in a colour-coded sheath to aid identification. The reason each wire is only a single strand, is because the current used to power the phone-line is extremely small, so doesn't need multi-stranded cable. (Snakester1962)
I'm trying to make a lamp with a wire which i can bend to adjust the lighting. So what's the wire or a cable which stays in form after it's bent?
A solid (single-strand) wire can hold some weight, but it is probably not strong enough to hold up lighting unless it is very small (i.e. a single LED). Metal will also become brittle if flexed often.
