What type of current is used to power electrical outlets in the US?
AC, alternating current is used to power electrical outlets in the U.S..
What is the name of an instrument for measuring electrical current?
Electrical current can be measured with an Ammeter. The units used are amps.
How did Oersted discover the relationship between an electricity and magnetism?
He used an electric current to affect the needle of a compass.
What type of electrical current is used for three phase 408V?
Alternating current.
What term is used to refer to the process of electrical discharge and the flow of electrical activity?
current
How is magnetism used to produce electricity?
A time-varying magnetic field can be used to induce a current in an inductor
How can electricity be used to generate magnetism?
Any time an electrical current flows, it will automatically be surrounded by a magnetic field.
Is a electromagnet only charged when electric current passes through?
Basically, yes. However, especially when the electromagnet uses iron, it will most likely have some residual magnetism when the current is switched off. Note: You shouldn't used the word "charged" in this context. That refers to electrical charges, and is not usually used for magnetism.
What is the instrument used for electrical current?
An Ammeter is used to measure electrical current, which is measured in Amperes (or Amps).
What is the equipment used to measure an electrical current?
Electrical current is measured using an ammeter.
What type of current is used to power electrical outlets in the US?
AC, alternating current is used to power electrical outlets in the U.S..
What is the name of an instrument for measuring electrical current?
Electrical current can be measured with an Ammeter. The units used are amps.
Why is the letter I used for electrical current?
Intensity.
What is abbreviation for electrical current?
the letter used is "I"
How does electromagnetic induction produce induced current?
Before you can understand how electrical energy is supplied by your electric company, you need to know how it is produced. A magnet and a conductor, such as a wire, can be used to induce a current in the conductor. The key is motion. An electric current is induced in a conductor when the conductor moves through a magnetic field. Generating an electric current from the motion of a conductor through a magnetic field is called electromagnetic induction. Current that is generated in this way is called induced current. To induce a current in a conductor, either the conductor can move through the magnetic field or the magnet itself can move.
What type of electric current is used in household?
Alternating electrical current is usually used in household.
Why soloniod is used for magnetize different metals?
Solenoid is a helically wound coil of wire. If current flows through the wire then an intense magnetic field is produced along the axis of the solenoid. This magnetic field would induce magnetism in the ferro magnetic piece placed along the axis of the solenoid.
