Does the wire in the electrical cord of an electric kettle have a higher or lower resistance than the heating element inside the kettle?
The wire in the cord has much lower resistance than the heating element. The heating element is a resistive or resistance heating element. Resistance in the quality of a substance or material that causes it to limit current flow, and it get heated up in the process. The heating element has all but the smallest fraction of the resistance in the circuit, so the heat, that thermal energy that get the water hot, is generated by the resistance of the heating element.
What materials are made from good conductors?
Most familiar conductors are metallic. Copper is the most common material used for electrical wiring. Silver is the best conductor, but is expensive. Gold is used for high-quality surface-to-surface contacts. Aluminium too is a good conductor.
How do thermal clothes work?
The material absorbs a minimum of body moisture, dries very quickly and regulates body moisture efficiently, thus keeping you warm. It's the breathable quality in the material that helps keep heat in.
What principle is used in the operation of an analog meter?
This result can be achieved through various methods. Two most common are: The electromagnetic principle: the probed quality is converted into current quality and passed through a coil wound around a magnet. That coil is then calibrated to move proportionally to the measured quality, and it thus displaces a gauge overlayed on a scale. For obvious reasons these meters are not well suited for measuring in environments with high (electro)magnetic fields. The thermal principle: a spiral is constructed using materials that cause the spiral to displace (unwind) due to heat when a current is applied, in proportion to that current, and in turn displaces a needle overlayed on top of a scale. The measured quality is, as above, converted into proportional current. For as well obvious reasons as above, these meters aren't very useful in extreme-temperature conditions (high or low). Method selection is based on the environment in which the meter will be used, and the measurement accuracy required. For completeness, pressure-reading gauges oftentimes include a membrane that displaces under pressure in order to move a gauge, but these are not commonly used in electrical circuits (membranes displacing semiconducting material are used instead, to convert pressure change to either voltage change, current change or resistance change, adequately to the requirement).
What effect if any does connecting an ammeter in series with a resistor in a circuit have on the current though the resistor?
That depends on the quality (price) of the meter. Ideally it should have no effect.
What is Like kind and quality for roofing material?
That would be defined as material substantially similar in appearance and quality as the material being replaced or repaired.
What are the applications of an electric resistance furnace?
A Furnace heated by electric Current is known as electric Furnace. Advantage of an electric furnace is it gives Positive temperature control System through a Temperature Controller. Now a days application of an electric Furnace is very Vast, from domestic use to Industrial Applications. Industrial uses its making large quantity of steel, in quality control laboratory it's a part to Analise the quality of materials etc. Domestic use of electric furnace warm rooms, media of cooking foods for us.
What material makes the highest quality fake fur?
The highest quality & finest material for making fake fur is modacrilic
Does recycling improve material quality?
not really it just reuses the material
How accurate are airsoft electric pistols?
Not very. Electric pistols are generally cheap and low quality.

What is meant by power quality engineering?
Power quality determines the fitness of electrical power to consumer devices. Synchronization of the voltage frequency and phase allows electrical systems to function in their intended manner without significant loss of performance or life. The term is used to describe electric power that drives an electrical load and the load's ability to function properly. Without the proper power, an electrical device (or load) may malfunction, fail prematurely or not operate at all. There are many ways in which electric power can be of poor quality and many more causes of such poor quality power.The electric power industry comprises electricity generation (AC power), electric power transmission and ultimately electricity distribution to an electricity meter located at the premises of the end user of the electric power. The electricity then moves through the wiring system of the end user until it reaches the load. The complexity of the system to move electric energy from the point of production to the point of consumption combined with variations in weather, generation, demand and other factors provide many opportunities for the quality of supply to be compromised.While "power quality" is a convenient term for many, it is the quality of the voltage-rather than power or electric current-that is actually described by the term. Power is simply the flow of energy and the current demanded by a load is largely uncontrollable.
What is the opposite of quality?
The opposite of "quality" (of fine material or construction) would be inferiority or shoddiness.
Are fender electric guitars bad quality?
Honestly it depends on the guitar but most fender guitars are very good quality. Fender was voted the number 3 highest quality electric guitars in the world. It is behind Gibson and marsall.
What companies make a quality electric drill?
The highest quality electric drills are made by the following companies: DeWalt, Ryobi, Milwaukee, Makita, and Black & Decker. The best retailer for electric drills is none other than The Home Depot.
What is high quality uniform made of?
High quality uniform is made up of the cotton material.
What does sub standard material mean?
It means that the material does not meet at least one of the requirements in terms of its quality.
