Yes, all metals and alloys should be considered as (good to very good) conductors.
What else can I help you with?
Is nichrome a conducter of heat?
yes,in fact it is good conductor of heat
Name the conductor normally used in heating appliances?
The conductor normally used in heating appliances is usually a nichrome wire. Nichrome is an alloy of nickel and chromium that has high electrical resistance, making it ideal for converting electrical energy into heat efficiently.
Can heating devices be made by passing an electric current through a conductor of?
Nichrome wire works.
Should the heating element of an electric iron be made of of iron Silver or nichrome wire?
It should be made of nichrome wire because resistivity of nichrome is high.Its high resistivity causes nichrome to heat up faster, when an electrical current is passed electricity moves through the wires, givingheat to the element.hope it helped
Does copper conduct electricity better than nichrome?
yes it does -------------------- You might say they are polar-opposites. Copper is specifically used where low resistance is desired. NiChrome is often used as a resistance wire. For example, model rocket engines utilize nichrome wire to ignite the fuel because the resistant wire will glow red-hot when electric power is applied.
What is the product of burning nichrome in air?
Nichrome is not flammable.
Is nichrome wire a good conductor of heat and electricity?
Yes !! It is an alloy of nickel with chromium.Heating ElementsManufacturers use nichrome wire extensively to make heating coils or elements for household and industrial use. You can find it in toasters, hair dryers, heaters and many other appliances.PotteryCeramics enthusiasts use nichrome wire to hold kilns together, and also to hold pottery together while baking. It will not melt or break at these extremely high temperatures.Hot Wire CutterYou can buy or make a cutter that uses a heated nichrome wire for a blade for cutting certain foams and plastics. The hot wire blade cuts cleaner and neater than a saw or knife.Fireworks and Motel RocketsSince nichrome wire heats up rapidly with voltage applied, it makes safe electric igniters for fireworks and model rockets. The operator can safely set off the device from a distance with a battery and a switch.
What elements is in heating elements in toaster?
Nichrome but nichrome is made out of nickel and chromium
Difference between copper wire and nichrome wire?
Copper wire is a good conductor of electricity and is commonly used in electrical applications due to its low resistance. Nichrome wire, on the other hand, is a nickel-chromium alloy with high resistance to heat and corrosion, making it suitable for applications like heating elements in appliances and industrial processes. Nichrome wire is used when resistance to high temperatures is required, while copper wire is used for its conductivity.
Why does nichrome get hot?
Nichrome has a high electrical resistivity.
Nichrome patented when?
1987
What element is used in heating element in toasters?
Nichrome but nichrome is made out of nickel and chromium
