Depends on exactly what its made out of, the diameter and it's resistance per metre. Forced air,refrigeration or water cooling can assist. Superconducting wire ,when kept very cold, can pass thousands of Amps and can be as fine as hair.

Will a copper wire not carrying a current be attracted to a magnet?

No, a copper wire that is not carrying a current will not be attracted to a magnet. Copper is not a magnetic material, so it does not interact with magnetic fields in the same way that magnetic materials like iron or nickel do.


A horseshoe magnet is moved back and forth across a piece of copper wire an electric current is detectable in the wire?

yes, it will be very small but the inductance from the magnet should stimulate a current in the wire as it will cause electrons to move.


What happens to copper wire because of the moving magnet?

The copper wire carries an electric current.


How can sound be changed into electric current?

The most common way is with a magnet and a coil of wire. Have either the magnet or the coil (it doesn't matter which) fixed in place and the other one attached to a membrane that will vibrate with the sound. When a magnet moves past a coil of wire, it causes an electric current in the wire.


How can a magnet field be produced around a wire?

By passing a current threw it.
