What happens to electric current before it enters you home?
Before entering your home, electric current typically travels through a network of power lines and transformers to step down the voltage for safe domestic use. It may also go through a meter to measure usage before entering your home's electrical panel.
What happens when there is an electric current in bathroom?
The lights shine. The fan works. You can use your electric shaver or hair dryer. The radio plays. You need to clarify your question before anyone can answer it in a meaningful way.
How many paths in the electric current takes before turning to its source?
This depends entirely on the layout of the circuit in which it is flowing
What must happen to the electric current in power lines before it can safely enter your home?
step-down transformer
What is electric current flow?
Answerits lightning, for a more simple answer......electric current flow is the movement of charges. Most often, however, we consider electric current flow to be moving electrons, or electron current flow.We most often use the term electric current flow to refer to the moving electrons, the flow of which is measured in amperes.Earlier scientists, before the discovery of electron, do believe that current flows right from positive terminal to the negative. This is known as conventional current flow.So electron flow is always opposite the direction of conventional current.
How are step up and step down transformations used in transmission of electric current from electric company to homes?
(This is what my teacher said, I wrote this down in my notes) The answer is, Step-up Transformers are used to increase the voltage of an electric current before it is sent out over transmission lines from the electric company. Step-down transformers are used to reduce the voltage of current from high-voltage transmission lines before it enters homes and businesses. Some devices, such as televisions, contain step-up transformers that increase the voltage once again.

How does a fuse wire save an appliance from high electric current?
A fuse link will melt and interrupt the flow of current to the appliance before it can get high enough to damage the appliance or wiring.
What must occur before the current flows through a circuit?
As current is the rate of flow of electric chargesAs I=Q/tso,there must be free electrons for the flow of electric current in a circuit.Then when voltage is applied at the terminals of circuit the free electrons acquire an average velocity called as drift velocity in the opposite direction to that of electric field (-E).Now the free electrons modify there random motion and a steady current begin to flow in a circuit.
Why is it important that an oscilloscope be used with an instrument before playing in a concert?
An oscilloscope is a device that measures oscillations, such as from current or voltage. For electric instruments, such as an electric guitar, this device can be important to help make sure that the instrument and its equipment are functioning properly before a concert.
When was the ligt bulb created?
The first lightbulb was made by Thomas Alva Edison, but other electric lights were created before his invention of the lightbulb.
How does electromagnetic induction produce induced current?
Before you can understand how electrical energy is supplied by your electric company, you need to know how it is produced. A magnet and a conductor, such as a wire, can be used to induce a current in the conductor. The key is motion. An electric current is induced in a conductor when the conductor moves through a magnetic field. Generating an electric current from the motion of a conductor through a magnetic field is called electromagnetic induction. Current that is generated in this way is called induced current. To induce a current in a conductor, either the conductor can move through the magnetic field or the magnet itself can move.
