yes
What element is the electrical wire made out of?
most of the time, copper
What property wire increases when it is made thinner?
electrical resistance
Why can't sodium be used in electric wires?
It can be used in electrical wires. Actually, in the future a lot of electrical wire may be made mostly of sodium. Google "lightweight composite electrical wire".
Wires are made of?
Most wire is made of an electrical conducting metal such as steel, copper, brass, etc. Then to prevent electrical "shorts," a generally flexible, electrically insulating material is used to cover the wire.

The electrical terminology of a wire with no insulation on it is a bare wire.
Why is copper made into electric wire?
Copper is a very good conductor of electricity, and is easy to shape.
What can induce an electrical current in a wire?
A magnetic field can induce an electrical current in a wire.
Which type of wires used in electrical works?
Electrical wire is the type of wire that is used in electrical equipment. To strip the wires, you need to use wire strippers. There is also special tape called electrical tape that is used to secure the wire.
