Copper, due to its high conductivity and its relative low cost.
If you mean an electric furnace then normally it is nichrome. a heating element in a heat strip is made of what type of wire
A electric Geyser has a Element screwed in the side of the inner water container, with the heated side submerged in water, parallel to the element (sometimes center) is a thermostat unit to control the temperature by switching the element off once the desired temperature has been reached. The element itself is made with nichrome wire, which is a resistive wire, When a Electric current is passed through the nichrome wire the resistance of the wire restricts the current causing a pressure of electrons and protons (as water builds pressure in a hose pipe when the end is restricted) and intern creates heat as a byproduct.
A wire has to be made of a conducting metal such as copper or aluminium, and it has to be thick enough to carry the required amount of electric current. Wire is often given an enamel coating to insulate it Wires are often stranded which gives flexibility.
No. Copper wire is made of the element copper. Tungsten wire is made of the element tungsten. Copper wire is made to conduct electricity. Tungsten wire is made for the filament in light bulbs as tungsten does not melt under even very high temperatures.
The coil of wire in a light is called a filament. It is typically made of tungsten and produces light when an electric current passes through it, heating it to a high temperature.
The heating element in electric heaters and irons is made from an alloy of nickel and chronium called nichrome. It is usually made in the form of wire. The wire is often wound around a flat sheet of mica for support. Mica is a thin layered mineral that can withstand high temperatures.
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
Copper is on the Periodic Table, anything on the periodic table is an element so copper wire is made from an element.
Copper wire is made of the element copper. Copper is a pure substance, not a compound, because it is made up of only one type of atom.
copper?
The element is made of special high resistance wire so the power is dissipated in the element rather than the low resistance cord.Power(watts) = Resistance (ohms) X {Current(amperes)}squared
most of the time, copper
