If you plug a 1000 w portable heater into a 220v outlet will it burn out?

you must check the voltage and current rating for the heater, the power itself doesnt matter Concur - Some heaters may be rated for the higher voltage which requires less current to run. Watts = Current * Voltage. You risk a fire if you try to run heater above its rated values which should be on a plate on the appliance.


How can an electrical cable cause a fire outbreak in a building?

Say the wire attached to a wall plug is not screwed tightly onto the terminal. If you plug something like a heater into that outlet, the current flow across that loose terminal will get it warm and as time goes on even hot, even hot enough to start the wall on fire.


For an eletric current to flow the only thing needed is for two objects to have a difference in charge?

Yes. However, depending on the size and shape of the objects, the amount of current that flows may be small and/or flow for only a brief time until the charges are neutralized. But - if the objects are connected to an electrical power source such as a battery or a wall plug, the charges are continuously supplied and the current continues to flow.


What type of current flows through an electric current?

Current is the flow of electrons. This could be DC (direct current like what you find in a battery) or AC (alternating current, what you find in a regular plug for example). Current is measured in Amperes or amps. And if you have the unfortunate chance of being shocked, amps are what could actually harm you or kill you.
