Does lightning have electrical energy?
Yes because it has electricity running through it!
Why does a bulb lights?
I think it does that because that's the sound of electricity running through it
How is Electricity used to make magents?
electricity running through wires creates a small magnetic force, so wires are spooled and a current is run through them
Is a TV magnetic?
Yes. Though it is not designed to be so. Anything with electricity running through it is magnetic. People are more concerned with how strong is this magnetic field generated by the electricity running through it. Go read up on electro-magnetism.
How does a generators produce electricity?
. This causes electrons to move through the conductor, which is creates a flow of electricity that we can use for lighting or running our computers.
Electricity running through a wire will induce field?
A magnetic field around the wire.
Do amps increase when electricity is ran through steel?

Why is an electromagnet not a permanet magnet?

What do you call something that allows heat or electricity to pass through it?
A material that allows heat or electricity to pass through it is called a conductor. The opposite of that is called an insulator. For electricity, the wire inside is the conductor, while the plastic on the outside is an insulator.
When electricity takes the easy path what type of circuit is involved?
Electricity takes the path of least resistance. When the electricity travels outside of the circuit, rather than through it, it is called a short circuit.
