heat
AnswerThe answer is work, not heat.
'Heat' is the name given to energy in transit from a warmer body to a cooler body. So heat cannot be produced by electricity. Electricity does work on a conductor, causing its internal energy to rise which, in turn, causes its temperature to rise and this then results in heat transfer away from the conductor.

How much heat is generated by 1 amp?
The heat generated by an electric current is in watts, Current x volts. So current alone is not enough to define it. By Ohms Law, Volts = Current x Resistance, so another way of expressing watts is (Current squared) x Resistance. If you know the current andthe resistance you can get the wattage, which will give you the heat generated.
How much heat is generated in a nuclear fusion?
Heat generated in a nuclear fusion depends on the resistance of the plasma and the current.
When the bulb is the resistance what this tells about the resistance?
An incandescent bulb has a filament that has a resistance. The value of the resistance determines the current that will flow for a given supply voltage. The heat generated by the current flowing through the filament gives off light. As the resistance of the filament decreases the current increases and you get more light.
How do sensors sense light and dark?
A: A photocell has the property to change resistance as photon hit its surface that cause a change in resistance with current is flowing a voltage is generated
How does a trans resistor work?
Wherever there is resistance or conductance and a current generated through interaction of electrons and holes there will be amplification. Trans-resistor is basically transfer of resistance.
When resistance decreases what happens to current?
Based on the simplest Electrical Equation V = I * R,(reads: voltage equals current multiplied by resistance)then, rearranged I = V / R .As resistance decreases, current flow proportionately increases
How do you find power generated in a resistor?
The power generated in a resistor is converted into heat. and that can be power which is converted into heat is the product of the voltage across the resistor and, current passing through the resistor. or the product of square of the current and the resistance offered by the resistor.
Why is the starting current high in DC motor?
The starting current is high because when the motor is not rotating no back-emf is generated, leaving the starting current to be determined by the armature resistance, which should be low.
What is a relationship among voltage current and resistance in a circuit?
Voltage = (current) x (resistance) Current = (voltage)/(resistance) Resistance = (voltage)/(current)
What is the relationship among voltage current and resistance in a circuit?
Voltage = (current) x (resistance) Current = (voltage)/(resistance) Resistance = (voltage)/(current)
What is meant by resistance of a current?
The resistance of a current is a measure of how difficult it is to push the electrons along.AnswerThere is no such thing as the 'resistance of a current'. Resistance is a characteristic of the material through which a current flows, not of the current itself.
Does resistance depend upon current?
The higher the resistance the lower the current flow. It restricts the flow of electrical current. The resistance will not depend upon the current. The current flow will depend on the resistance.
