Best Answer

Heat is caused by resistance against electricity, or flow of current which is part of electricity. Electricity was made by physical power converted into electricity. The heat is caused by resisting the flow of electrical current.

The more current through a wire the more heat it will produce. The wires resistance determines the amount that can flow at the voltage being used. Ohms law applies.

Does metal gets voltage when it heats?

There is no relationship between applying heat energy to metal and that alone yielding an electrical current. However, conductors release heat (temperature increases) based on the amount of electrical load they bear in a direct relationship.

What is the relationship between the size of an electric current passing through a lenght of wire and its heating effect?

The higher the current, the more heat generated. Also, the smaller the diameter of the wire, the higher the heat. It is important to choose the correct amperage rating of the wire to prevent fires.Another AnswerThe work done by an electric current is the product of the square of that current, and the resistance of the conductor. The resulting heat depends upon the difference between the temperature of the conductor and that of the surrounding air. Remember, heat is defined as the transfer of energy between objects at different temperatures.
