1 rod equals how many meters?
1 rod = 5.0292 meters
How tall is a lightning rod?
it doesn't have a fixed length, as long as a rod is "grounded" connected to the ground by a heavy duty wire, it's a lightning rod. . .
What factor determines how much linoleic acid can twist and bend its shape?
carbon-carbon doble bonds.
What do nuclear scientist call a stick of uranium?
A rod of uranium
What a lightning rod?
A lightning rod is a metal rod placed in various structures to prevent lightning from striking them. It attracts the lightning to itself, and it is channeled into the ground.
Is carbon rod magnetic?
No, Carbon is diamagnetic.
What are the uses of carbon rod in a battery?
the carbon rod is the medium for conduction of electricity inside the battery
Is a carbon rod an insulator?
A carbon rod may be an insulator or a conductor. It depends on which allotrope of carbon we're talking about. Electricity can travel through a graphite (carbon) rod easily, but it cannot travel through a diamond rod. Both graphite and diamond are carbon, but the former is a conductor while the latter is an insulator.
Will a magnet stick to a carbon rod?
No, carbon itself is not magnetic.
What rod forms the positive terminal of a dry cell?
carbon rod
What is carbon rod connected to the negative terminal of the battery?
The negative terminal of a carbon/zinc cell is connected to the zinc cup that functions as the cathode. The carbon rod is the anode (positive).
Which is the strongest material for a fishing rod - is it glass fiber or carbon?
It's carbon
IS carbon rod a cathode or anode?
cathode
Is carbon rod metal?
yes it is a metal
Is a carbon rod a conductor or insulator?
As regards electrical conduction, if the carbon rod is graphite, it's a conductor. If the carbon rod is diamond, it's an insulator. We have to specify the allotrope of carbon used to make the rod to discover whether it's an insulator or conductor.
In a dry cell the carbon rod releases electrons and becomes the positive or negative terminal?
In a dry cell, the carbon rod is the positive terminal, or anode.
Is carbon rod a metal or non-metal?
yes it is a METAL
