How long would electricity last in the UK or US if something wiped out most of humanity?

this depends... much of the power in the UK is supplied by nuclear power, and these power plants are mostly regulated by computors.. i assume its down to luck more than anything else.

Does not electricity to move through it easily?
rubber would be an example of something that does not allow electricity to move through it easily
Which Properties make it difficult for electricity to pass through?
rubber would be an example of something that does not allow electricity to move through it easily
What if a tsunami hit Mort Macquarie would everyone get wiped out since it is a small town?
it wouldn't get wiped out but some of it would get destroyed
How can we encourage other people to use electricity?
Why would you want to do that? "Using electricity" should never be a goal in an of itself. Using electricity has costs, both in money, and ecological.You would want to use electricity if it serves some useful purposes - basically, you use DEVICES that use electricity, because they do something useful for you.
What is something that resists the flow of heat or electricity?
Something that resists the flow of heat or electricity is called and insulator. An example of this would be rubber. That is why we have rubber around all of our computer cords, lamp cords, phone chargers, etc.
Why would dry instant coffee jump around in a foam cup?
I suspect it has something to do with static electricity.
What can produce static electricity?
Well, most people would agree that if you rub something against a balloon!It is produced when two different substance are rubbed together....Static Electricity is a form of electricity that does not flow through a wire.
What would happen if you wiped your butt with a knife?
you would start bleeding and you would die.
Is ocean behave like a conductor?
Ocean is too big. Any amount of electricity that humanity would generate would dissipate and thus could not be transported through ocean. But as for water - it's conductive, and thus ocean also is - to some extent.
What does conduire mean in science?
I'm guessing that what you meant to say was 'conduct', meaning the ability of something to allow something else to pass it. Something that conducts electricity for example is a copper wire. A copper wire will allow electricity to pass it easily. The opposite of conducting is insulating. Something that insulates heat for example would be something like a blanket which stops heat from escaping
What are some bee fact?
They make great honey and without them there will be no flowers. When they sting their abdomen is torn with the sting so when they sting something they die. Without bees pollination would not happen and the human race would be wiped out.
What precautions to be taken when working with static electricity?
well, it depends on what you are working with that involves static. For static electricity to form, there needs to be a circuit completed in some fashion, weather that be between 2 objects or between something and you, and you would need a way to prevent that current from traveling too you, thus, you must ground yourself. You can in effect ground yourself by touching something that does not conduct electricity. If your working with an already completed circuit, then just treat it as you would any electricity.
