1. induces magentic field around the conductor.
2.Generates heat in the conductor.
3. Causes shock if flows through human body.
AnswerThe three 'effects' of an electric current are its heating effect, its magnetic effect, and its chemical effect.
It's magnetic effect (resulting in the force between parallel conductors) is used to define the ampere.

Name any 5 electric appliances that make use of heating effects of electric current?
electric iron , electric toaster, electric water heater, electric geyser
Why any electric wire get suddenly cool when electric current cutoff?
Heat in an electric wire is mainly caused by the rapid movement and collision of electrons as they flow along it, when an electric current is cut off, the flow is greatly reduced causing a huge drop in temperature.
What form around a wire carrying an electric current?
Electromagnetic fields form around any current carrying conductor.
Does lead slow down electric currents?
Not to any perceivable level. Lead will conduct an electrical current, as will any metallic object.
What properties makes certain metalloids useful as switches to turn electric current on and off?
any property
Enlist any four effects of electric current on conductor with one example of each?
Effects of an Electric current -1) Heating effect -e.g. - Heater / Geyser etc.2) Magnetic effect -e.g. - Electric Bell etc.3) Chemical effect -e.g. - Battery charging etc.4) Lighting effect -e.g. - Electric bulb etc.
Can an electric current be used to affect a compass needle?
Yes. Any electric current is surrounded by a magnetic field.
What happens to an electric current at a switch?
The electric charges flow without any interruption's

What are the differences between electricity and electric current?
The difference is that "electric current" is a strictly defined, universally interpreted quantity, with a known method of measurement and a rigorously defined unit, whereas "electricity" is a slippery, rubber word, without any scientific definition, or method or unit of measurement, being the popular word used to mean any of the things, effects, or stuff related to electric charge and its motion.
Is this sentence incorrect any material that allows an electric current to pass through is called a battery?
Incorrect. Any material that allow electric current to pass through it is a conductor.
What is a define current?
the rate of flow of electric charge through any cross sectional area is called electric current. by,Rameen Riaz
How you know by looking a wire if there is any current or not?
You can't detect the presence of electric current in a conductor with any human sense.
How can electricity be used to make a magnet?
Any time there is ANY flow of electric charges (any current), the current will be surrounded by a magnetic field.
why do circuits need fuses?
Any electric circuit need to be equipped with electric fuses to protect the electric appliances or any electric/electronic equipment from damage due to unexpected electric current sudden or transient increase.
Is there any fish Which contain electric current?
There's an electric eel but I'm not sure if it is technically a fish :D
