Does steel wire or aluminium wire stretch more after exceeding its elastic limit?
Steel
Particles of solids tend to stay very close together from each other when they are pulled That way some solids can turned into thin wires How is that property called?
This is the way we describe the ductility of metals. A ductile metal can be "pulled" (called "drawing" by the industry) and made into wire, or rolled and turned into foil. Copper is drawn into wire and aluminum is rolled into foil, and both metals will stand up to the processes because they have the physical property of ductility. Look below for links.
How do particles move around?
After you stroke a tuning fork, all the particles move back and forth. If you play a piano, particles of the wire move back and forth.
What happens when a magnet is moved alongside a wire?
the electrons in the wire begin to flow
What happens when too much current flows through a wire?
Heat is created. Without the proper protection of over current devices on the circuit this heat can reach temperatures high enough to melt the insulation on the wire. High voltage on a very small wire will vaporize it and all that will be left is copper particles.
Cna you stretch copper into wire?
yes

Steel
What will be change in resistance of a wire if you stretch it?
If you stretch a wire, it would become longer, and therefore thinner. The cross sectional area will decrease and so the resistance will increase. in the real world, if it's stranded wire, the strands will likely break. Solid wire would not stretch evenly, and in either case insulation will tear, so I wouldn't recommend stretching a wire.
Stretch a copper wire so that its thinner and the resistance between its end?
increases

What's the mean of ductility for zinc?
Ductility is a measure of how easy it is to stretch a metal into a wire.
What is TPC?
A multi-wire chamber (or just wire chamber) is a type of proportional counter that detects charged particles and photons, by means of gaseous ionization detection of particles of ionizing radiation.
Can an ounce of gold can be stretch into a wire?
An ounce of gold can be stretched into a wire 80km (50miles) long or beaten into a sheet covering 9 square metres.

When a magnet is alongside a wire what happens?

What particles are moving from atom to atom in a wire?
In a metal wire electrons go and go and go! when conducting electric current.
What is flexible and a good conductor of heat?
no,as convection can never occur in solids[they allow only conduction].In a solid ,the particles[molecules] are closely packed together so then the cannot allow movement which is required in convection
