When does electricity flow?
When there is a closed circuit, there is electricity flow.
What happens in a current when the resistance goes up?
It causes the electricity flow faster,which in term increases the electrical flow.CommentChanging a circuit's resistance doesn't cause 'electricity' to flow faster -or slower, come to that! First of all, 'electricity' isn't a quantity, so it cannot be measured, and it doesn't flow! If, by 'electricity', you mean 'current', well that isn't made to 'flow faster' either.If the supply voltage is constant, then increasing a circuit's resistance causes the magnitude of current to fall. This has nothing to do with its 'speed'!
A photovoltaic cell or solar cell is used to convert solar energy to?
electricity CURRENT FLOW INTO A LOAD. Without a load that is just voltage sitting there.
The flow of electricity can be compared to the circulation of water in a?
A pipe. The volume of water available can be compared to voltage. The diameter of pipe could be compared to resistance with smaller diameter being larger resistance and the flow of water past a point in pipe is equivalent to current flow.
Why is an electricity not flow in an open circuit?
The electricity will flow from higher potential to lower potential in a closed circuit.
What does the voltage of a battery tell you?
the flow of electricity
What does voltage cause the flow of?
there is a difference in electrical potential energy.
What does the term voltage and current mean?
Voltage -the rate at which energy is drawn from a source that produces a flow of electricity in a circuit; expressed in voltsCurrent - a flow of electricity through a conductor; "the current was measured in amperes"
Force of electricity is measured in this?
There is no "force of electricity". Voltage is sort of like a "force" that makes electricity flow, but it doesn't have the units of force.
What kind of electricity is caused by a continuous flow of electricity?
Current electricity is the kind of electricity that is caused by a continuous flow of electricity. In order for this to happen there must be a voltage present across a conductor, for example in overhead power lines.
How much electricity can flow through a series circuit?
it depends on the battery voltage
Can electricity flow in gases?
lighting and the tesla coil flow in gass High voltage will flow thru anything, including air.
How do electrons behave in a conductor when no voltage is applied?
when no electricity flow then chare are in condition of static
Current and voltage?
The current is the flow of electrons The voltage is the push the power source gives to the electrons to make the current faster. The flow of electrons is electricity HI!! By the way I am amazing! Trust me.
What can't we use step-up transformer to increase the voltage by producing electricity of lower voltage?
This question is not understandable. You can use a step up transformer to increase voltage; you can't increase voltage by producing electricity at a lower voltage; this will result in current flow into your generator, not current flow out (similar to operating a generator in the leading mode). Please explain further under "discuss question".
What is the function of electricity mains?
The main function of an electric circuit is to provide a path for electrons to flow. The electrons are from a current source flow or voltage.
How do electron flow in an electric circuit in terms of voltage difference?
Electrons are negatively charged particles. When a voltage difference exists, electrons are repelled from the more negative (or less positive) voltage toward the more positive voltage. If they are in a material which allows conduction of electricity, then the electrons will flow toward the more positive voltage.
