What are some testable questions involving electric currents?
Here I got one.. How long would it take for an electric current to travel through an 11 foot wire?
How do you get electric shock?
Electricity tends to travel towards the ground. when we touch an electrical substance, our body acts as a conductor and the current passes through our body to the ground. this is how we get an electric shock.
What does electric current produce?
A electric current produces a magnetic field
Is electric current scaler or vector quantity?
Electric current is a scalar.
Do you use static electricity in your homes or current electricity?
electric current (alternating)
If an electric current can travel though two paths which will it travel though?
Both
What is the conductivity of electricity?
conductivity is the ratio of current density to the electric field
How does electric current travel through gas?
Through ions or electrons.
What is arc resistant?
The electric current will not travel from one end of the circuit to another.
Does an electric current flow as negative charges?
Yes because only electrons(negatively charged) can travel.
How does sound travel through a microphone?
Sound waves enter the microphone and are then converted to an analog electric current.
The pathway taken by an electric current is a?
The term is "circuit" (from the same root as circle) An electric circuit must be uninterrupted for the current to flow. (This is why circuit-breakers are also called circuit-interruptors.)
What is the continuous flow of electric charges through a material?
Yes, an electric current is the flow of charged particles.
What is the direction of flow of electric current in an electric current?
DC current
What are some testable questions involving electric currents?
Here I got one.. How long would it take for an electric current to travel through an 11 foot wire?
Does electric charges travel only through wire?
There are 2 questions in this : 1: if it is about material... A: No electric charges can also travel through all the conductors of electricity like water, humans, animals, metals etc. 2: if it is about area in which electric charges pass through... A: No, If current is AC then it travels on the surface of the wire, and if the current is DC then it travels through the wire evenly.
What is a continuous flow of electricity is called?
A current.
