Why do materials with high heat capacities heat slowly?
because by definition heat capacity is how much heat the substance needs to change its temperature by 1 degree. It "stores" heat and delivers it back slowly. It has nothing to do with heat resistance which is how much heat it allows through it.
Do alloys produce heat resistance?
Alloys can add heat resistance to a metal
HOW MUCH HEAT DOES 600 VOLTS CREATE?
The amount of heat generated by 600 volts depends on the current flowing through the circuit and the resistance of the materials involved, as described by Joule's law (Q = I²R, where Q is heat, I is current, and R is resistance). Without knowing the current or the resistance, it's impossible to determine the exact amount of heat produced. In general, higher voltage can lead to more heat if current and resistance are also significant.
What are the effects of the resistance of a filament wire?
The resistance of a filament wire affects the amount of current passing through it and the amount of heat produced. Higher resistance leads to higher heat generation and light emission, resulting in brighter light. However, too much resistance can cause the filament to overheat and fail prematurely.
Does heat depend on path?
Not really, if you're referring to heat transfer, then the heat will use the path of least resistance. So the heat doesn't rely on the path as much as it does on the material that the heat must travel through.
How much efficiency do you lose when using a home resistance heater?
You lose a lot of efficiency, since resistance heaters make heat off being inefficient.
Why does electrical resistance cause heat to be produced?
When current flows through a material with resistance, electrical energy is converted into heat energy due to the collisions between electrons and atoms in the material. This increased kinetic energy in the material causes the temperature to rise and heat to be produced as a result of resistance.
What will make an amp surge to protect mode in a car?
a short or too much resistance thus heat
How is heat made by electricity?
There are many ways how electricity can create heat. For example, passing a current through a wire of high resistance (i.e. a resistor) will generate heat, though not much.
What doesnt conduct heat well?
Heat insulation is defined as the resistance to the flow of heat offered by a material when it is subject to a change in temperature. Objects that put up a lot of resistance to heat flow don't conduct heat well, and are called insulators. Some examples of insulators are wood, rubber and glass. Things that do conduct heat well don't offer much resistance to heat flow. Many metals fall into this category, such as aluminum, copper, and gold. See the link below for more information on heat conduction.
Does the amount of heat produced depend on the material of the conductor?
Yes, resistance in a conductor causes energy losses due to heat. Metals such as Gold and Platinum have very low resistance but they are very expensive so Copper and Aluminium are used instead which are much more affordable but have higher resistance.
How much heat is generated by 1 amp?
The heat generated by an electric current is in watts, Current x volts. So current alone is not enough to define it. By Ohms Law, Volts = Current x Resistance, so another way of expressing watts is (Current squared) x Resistance. If you know the current andthe resistance you can get the wattage, which will give you the heat generated.
