Is somthing that flows through an electric circuit an eletrical current?
Yes. Current consists of electrons flowing in a circuit.
What type of light source produce descrete spectrum?
Any thin (low-pressure) sample of a gas with electric current flowing through it.
What is an elecrical current?
Electric current is the flow of charge from one place to another. Charge is carried by electrons, so current can be defined as the number of electrons per second that pass through a given area.
Why steel becomes a permanent magnet after electric current is passed through it?
Electric current is magnetic so when electric current pass through steel , steel will have the electric power and may be magnetic for awhile
When an electric charge moves through a conductor there is an electric in the conductor?
current
Which magnet made by an electric current flowing through wires?
Electromagnet.
What is encountered by the electric current while flowing through a conductor?
ambot
Does lightning have a solid state?
No. Lightning is an electric current flowing through ionized air.
What controls the strength of a magnet made with electric current?
The strength of a magnet(electromagnet) made by flowing electric current through a conducting coil depends on magnitude of current. . .
Is somthing that flows through an electric circuit an eletrical current?
Yes. Current consists of electrons flowing in a circuit.
How can an electric current be kept flowing through a coil of wire?
By applying an electrical current constantly or by using a superconducting material.
A complete path for electricity to flow?
currents can be thought of simply by flowing through a wire, though not always the case. It is convenient to think of current density which is the amount of current flowing through a cross sectional area, like water through the opening of a pipe, since electric current flows through many 3-dimensional objects.
What is the definition for current intensity?
Current intensity refers to the amount of electric current flowing through a conductor in a given time, measured in amperes (A). It is a measure of the rate at which electric charge flows in a circuit.
What will happen when electrons pass through a superconductor?
Any electrons flowing through a superconductor will show up as a regular electric current.
What is a real life example of a step function?
The current flowing through an electric circuit when you flick the switch on or off.
Why does a resistor heat up when an electric current flows through it?
Current moving through a resistor causes it to heat up because of the flowing electrons bumping into the atoms in the resistor.
What flows through a circuit and causes a magnetic field?
An electric current flowing through a circuit causes a magnetic field. This is due to the movement of electric charges, usually electrons, in the circuit. The magnetic field produced is perpendicular to the direction of the current flow.
