False. Electrical current flows from a high pressure state (called hot) to a state of rest (called ground or neutral).

How electrical current flows from a state of rest to high pressure state?

Is it true that electrical current flows from a state of rest to a high pressure state?

No, it is not true. An electrical current (which is a flow of electrons) can only flow from a higher pressure state (higher voltage) to a lower pressure state (lower voltage).


When a lamp is switched off is the electrical current to the light open or closed?

Open and closed does not refer to electrical current or the flow of electricity. Open or closed refers to the state of an electrical circuit. When a lamp is turned on electricity flows through wires, the switch and the lamp; and the circuit is considered closed. When a lamp is switched off the circuit is considered open (or broken) and the flow of electric current is stopped.


What is the current New York State electrical code?

The current version of the National Electric Code - NFPA 70. Current Version is 2008 and can be verified: http://www.nfpa.org/aboutthecodes/AboutTheCodes.asp?DocNum=70


Is a copper wire a magnetic object?

Well, when you make it into a coil and pass an electrical current through it, yes. In its normal state, however, it is not.


How would you use the words currant and current in a sentence?

"Currant" is a fruit. "Current" is either the passage of electricity (heard of electrical current?), or the word describing now, e.g. current events. So, in my current state of mind, I would really enjoy a currant cake.


Operation of ttl gate with totem-pole output?

For the working of TTL nand with totempole When both inputs are LOW The emitter base junctions at A and B gets forward biased, base -collector junction gets reverse biased for Q1.So maximum current flows through forward biased junction. As base -collector junction of Q1 gets reverse-biased, base current through the Q2 is ZERO, which makes Q2 OFF. As Q2 is in OFF state, base current through Q4 is ZERO, which makes Q4 OFF.As Q2 is in OFF state the current through R2 flows through base of Q3 which makes Q3 and diode D to ON.As Q4 is in OFF state the current flows through the load, which make output to go HIGH state

What is direct current and alternating current?

Direct current is a constant, steady state current, such as obtained from a battery. Alternating current is constantly switching polarity, usually in a sinusoidal waveform, such as obtained from an alternator, a form of generator that does not have a commutator.Direct Current and Alternating Current:The first and simpler type of electricity is called direct current, abbreviated "DC". This is the type of electricity that is produced by batteries, static, and lightning. A voltage is created, and possibly stored, until a circuit is completed. When it is, the current flows directly, in one direction. In the circuit, the current flows at a specific, constant voltage (this is oversimplified somewhat but good enough for our needs.)The other type of electricity is called alternating current, or "AC". This is the electricity that you get from your house's wall and that you use to power most of your electrical appliances. Alternating current is harder to explain than direct current. The electricity is not provided as a single, constant voltage, but rather as a sinusoidal (sine) wave that over time starts at zero, increases to a maximum value, then decreases to a minimum value, and repeats.


Why does NaCl pass the current in liquid state only?

This is because in solution the NaCl dissociates into Na+ & Cl- ions which get attracted toward oppositely charged electrodes & thus completing the circuit . Hence, the current flows . This can't happen in solid state because in solid state there is lack of free ions & electrolyte {due to absence of water } & hence current can't pass.


Is a watt more powerful than a volt?

They are measures of different things. A watt is the standard unit of measurement of electrical power. You would state the brightness of a light bulb in terms of watts. A volt is a unit of measurement of force, or pressure, in an electrical circuit. You would describe the current coming through a wire in terms of volts. These definitions are from the TechEncyclopedia at http://www.techweb.com. I added the examples.
