What is the difference between solid and flexible wire?
A solid wire is intended to be used in a fixed position. It is installed, fastened in place, and left there. If bent repeatedly, the wire will break from meal fatigue. However, flexible wires, such as those in an extension cord or an appliance cord, consist of many fine strands of wire that ARE made to be bent and bent back without breaking.
Can electric fields be harmful?
Before lightening strikes, there has to be an electric field. If you grab a live wire, the voltage of the wire creates an electric field in you which drives the current that kills you.
What is the material of sonometer wire?
The sonometer wire is usually made up any material which is non-magnetic in nature.
A steel wire of length l has a magnetic moment M It is then bent into a semi circular arc The new magnetic moment is?
Since, a steel wire is bent into a semi circular arc ,the new magnetic moment will be M
Why does a piece of wire become hot when it is bent repeatedly at the same point?
friction of the electrons are not moving freely in the wire, they bump on each other
When a wire is bent back and forth it becomes hot why?
Friction of the material at an atomic level.
Is a wire thick with low electric resistance?
A wire that is thicker than another wire of the same material has less resistance
What part of a circuit is the wire cable or switch?
Wire is the transition material used to carry the electric current; the switch is the controller of that current.
Does an electric heater contain platinum?
Nichrome wire s the usual material because i s cheap
Inventor of electric wire?
who invented electric wire
What are the release dates for A Bit of Bent Wire - 1916?
A Bit of Bent Wire - 1916 was released on: USA: 22 December 1916
How can an electric current be kept flowing through a coil of wire?
By applying an electrical current constantly or by using a superconducting material.
What is the white material inside electric heaters?
The white material inside electric heaters is magnesium oxide. This same material is used in Pyrotenax cables to withstand heat in high ambient temperature areas. On these cables a #14 wire is given a 20 amp current rating.
What happened in electrec wire if you bent?
Bending does not normally affect the conductivity of a wire. If you deform the wire in the process, you may create a place where heat builds up. Most wiring avoids sharp bends and keeps them even to avoid any deformation.
A material that can be streached into a wire?
a material that can be stretched into a wire
Does electric charges travel only through wire?
There are 2 questions in this : 1: if it is about material... A: No electric charges can also travel through all the conductors of electricity like water, humans, animals, metals etc. 2: if it is about area in which electric charges pass through... A: No, If current is AC then it travels on the surface of the wire, and if the current is DC then it travels through the wire evenly.
Why copper wire becomes stronger when bent?
It becomes weaker and breaks when bent many times.
