How the declair one ohm resistance?

One ohm is the resistance through which a current of one ampere will induce an electrical potential difference of one volt. Ohm's Law: Resistance is Voltage divided by Current


Where do electric generators direct the current they induce?

An electric generator generates the current by moving a coil of wire through a magnetic field. This is normally in the inner mechanisms of the device.


Does an electric current produces a magnetic field?

yes*edit: don't confuse moving with changing. A change in magnetic field strength/direction will induce an electric current.


What is induction motor?

Induction motor is an AC electric motor which uses electromagnetic induction to induce the electric current in the rotor to produce torque.


Does a moving magnetic field produce an electric current?

yes*edit: don't confuse moving with changing. A change in magnetic field strength/direction will induce an electric current.


How can you develop a magnet?

Electric current in a coil can induce magnetism in an iron nail,place near the coil.when the electric current is cut off the magnetism in the iron nail disappears.the magnetism in the nail exist so long as there is electric current in the coil.this is an electromagnet.


Can magnets produce electric currents?

Motion of a coil within a magnetic field will induce a current in the coil if it can complete a circuit.


Static electricity is produce when?

when there is an electrical potential difference as if water flows down as there is a difference in gravitational potential difference.


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 can induce an electrical current in a wire?

A magnetic field can induce an electrical current in a wire.


What is a magnetic created when electric current flows through a coil of wire?

Nothing is ever created, however, Electricity is INDUCED. The process is interchangeable, so if you pass a current through the wire you have a magnetic field (electromagnetism)lol.-originalposter- When you pass a magnet through a coil of wire, you induce an electric current. Also, if you move the coil instead you get the same result.-norman


How does hydro electricity produce electricity?

the difference in water height (potential energy) on either side of the dam causes water to flow down through it. water flows through turbines inside the dam, causing the turbines to spin. magnets on the spinning turbines induce an alternating current (AC current). that current is then transported via transmission lines to your house. potential energy -> mechanical energy -> electrical energy
