How do you make a working model on electricity which is easy to make?
Just make a physics model of the properties which are associated with electricity but are tangible in the real world. I.e. the water analogy of electricity. Water pressure is voltage, electrical current is analogous to water flow rate and a restriction in a water pipe could be resistance. but it is important that this is only a model for certain circumstances and will break down if you try to carry the analogy too far.
Does electricity flow from high pressure to low pressure?
No, air does - electricity does not.
What is pW?
pW stands for potential of water. It is analogous to pH.
Does the tap use electricity?
"Yes we can" , unless you use a electric pump to transfer the water directly to your house. Usually there will be a raised reservoir to store water (raised to provide pressure). Therefore (normally) electricity is not needed when you open the tap unless the reservoir is empty. Hope this helped!
Is a water a conductor or an insulator of electricity?
Pure water, that is to say without any other substances, actually does not conduct electricity. Water with impurities, on the other hand, does conduct electricity. Since water is usually impure, common water conducts electricity.
What is analogous to water pressure in an electric circuit?
A whole set of math can be devised in which the water pressure is analogous to thecurrent in the circuit. But I was never comfortable with that. It seemed a lot moreintuitive and useful to me ... and when I explain electricity to my kids I always do itthis way ... to draw the analogy between the water pressure at the faucet and thevoltage at the outlet.
Does a water pressure regulator uses electricity?
No, it uses water pressure.
How many volts in 5kv genrator?
5kV means 5 kilovolts or 5,000 volts. Electricity is analogous to water flowing through a pipe. Voltage is water pressure, current is water flow. Resistance is the resistance of the hose to the flow of water. The larger the hose, the less resistance and the more flow you can move with the least amount of pressure.
What is electrical pressure?
Electro motive force = EMF = Voltage.
Explain that electrical power is the product of voltage and current with their respective symbols and units?
Volts(v) x Amps (a) = Watts (w) voltage is analogous to water pressure and amperage is analogous to water volume, so wattage is analogous to cu.ft. per minute.

What is the name of the electrical pressure that causes current to flow in a circuit?
Electrical pressure is called "electro-motive force" (EMF). It is measured in volts. Pressure and the quantity of electricity transmitted can be considered analogous to pressure and quantity of water flowing in pipes: the longer the distance, the higher is the pressure (called the "voltage" for electricity) that is necessary to pump the flow of water (called the "flow of electrical charge, which is also known as the "electric current"). That is why, for long distance transmission, high pressure (voltage for electricity) is required, failing which, the current - and therefore the power - will not reach the intended destination. Instead, it will be lost (also called "dissipate") along the way. We can think of electrical current as the quantity of electricity which will be drawn from the pipeline (= cables for electricity) at the pressure (= voltage) required.
How does hydraulique electricity work?
When the water here is like a dam, water weight creates pressure on water depth. The term refers to the pressure of the hydraulic turbine driven generators and electricity is produced and run. The water flow of electricity is produced. Electricity can be generated from tidal water. Hydraulic fluid power is used.
Is Voltage electricity?
Yes. If you compare the effect water pressure has on flow rates and from an open tap, more pressure allows more water to flow out of and away from the source. In electrical circuitry, an increase in voltage - say from a battery - will in most cases enable a larger current to flow around the circuit that the battery is connected to. Voltage can be seen as the pressure force pushing another quantity around the loop and that quantity is electrical current . Electrical pressure and the quantity of electricity transmitted can be considered analogous to water flowing in pipes. Electrical pressure is called voltage: the longer the distances, the higher is the pressure (voltage) required to pump the current. That is why, for long distance transmission, high pressure (voltage here) is required, failing which, the power will not reach the destined end. It will dissipate on the way. <><><> We can think of electrical current as the quantity of electricity which will be drawn from the pipeline (= cables for electricity) at the pressure (= voltage) required.

How can you get electricity from water?
One of two ways: 1. Drop large amounts of water through turbines (generators) and electricity is created in the turbine windings. 2. Press water at high pressure through micro-tubes in a disk of glass. A small amount of electricity is generated. But, it takes electricity to pump the water up to high pressure, so no new energy can be created.
Why is moving water not commonly used to generate electricity?
A lot of water and pressure is needed to create a small amount of electricity. In many places, its not a viable solution.
