What element combined with nickel it forms nichrome wire which is used in toasters and other devices where high elctrical resistances is desire to produce heat?
Chromium
What elements have luster and are good conductors of heat and electricity?
A metal has luster and conducts heat and electricity. Most of the elements are metals and plastic
Which elements in the periodic table are better conductors of heat?
The better conducters of heat are the metals
What gives elements their properties?
heat, heat can change the state of matter therefore speeding up molecules.
What are the three elements that make up fire?
fuel,oxygen,heat
Does toaster have metal?
Toasters are made of metal to withstand the heat from the red hot elements that toast the bread.
Do toaster have metal?
Toasters are made of metal to withstand the heat from the red hot elements that toast the bread.
What do toasters have a lot of?
toasters obviously have alot of heat
What is a toasters maximum heat?
2500 decrees Fahrenheit
What causes heat to be produced in appliances such as lights toasters and ovens?
Heat is a form of energy and in appliances like toasters energy is transmitted into the metal of the toaster causing the heat. Resistance to the flow of the electricity through the coils of wire in the toaster create heat. ---/////--- more coils equals more heat. ---/////////////---.
Is a toaster a mechanical?
No. Toasters covert electrical energy to heat energy, but no mechanical energy is involved.
What element heats elements in toasters?
It is nearly always Nichrome wire. The same is used for space heaters, etc.
Do toasters have a motor?
No. Toasters generally have heating elements, a mechanical or electronic timer, and a spring loaded tray on which toastable items rest. There are some larger industrial model toasters that do have electric motors that pass toastable items past the heating element, typically on a chain belt, but the toaster in your kitchen is not likely one of these.
What element is used to make heating elements in toasters?
The most common alloy is the Swedish Kanthal (Fe, Cr,Al).
How does heat from toasters heat up your toast?
By sending electricity through a type of wire that electricity can't get through easily which causes alot of heat to emerge thus toasting the bread.
What are some uses of resistance wire?
wirewound resistorsvacuum tube filaments and heatersheating elements: toasters, room heaters, heat lamps, etc.incandescent lightbulbsfluorescent lamp starting heatersthermal delay relaysetc.
Is a toaster mechanical energy?
No. Toasters covert electrical energy to heat energy, but no mechanical energy is involved.
