There is really no complete theory of superconduction yet. It is believed that in certain materials - the "classical" superconductors - the current is transported by Cooper pairs (i.e., pairs of electrons). However, the classical theory doesn't really explain superconduction in the more recently discovered high-temperature superconductors.

Is water a superconductor?
Water is not a superconductor.
What material has no electrical resistance?
A superconductor. So far, it has only been possible to produce superconductors that work at extremely cold temperatures.
Does a superconductor expel a magnetic field?
As a superconducting material transitions into its superconducting state, it ejects internal magnetic fields. In that light, yes, a superconductor could be said to expel a magnetic field according to what is called the Meissner effect. A link can be found below.
A superconductor performs best at what?
Low temperature. A superconductor doesn't 'perform' at all, and isn't even a superconductor, above its critical temperature.
A superconductor performs best at?
A superconductor superconducts ONLY at extremely low temperature.
A material that has no electrical resistance?
That's a "superconductor".
What is the meissner effect?
In case of normal material,the magnetic lines of force can penetrate the material,but in case of superconductor material the magnetic lines of forces repels from the material.Since superconductor materials have dimagnetic property.This effect is called meissner effect.
Is mercury the planet an example of superconductor?
Pure mercury will exhibit superconductivity at 4.2 degrees Kelvin. It was the first superconductive material that H. Kamerlingh Onnes found in 1911.
What flows indefinitely in a superconductor?
A current of electricity can flow at the same strength for an indefinitely long time in a superconductor but only for as long as the superconductor is held below its critical temperature. If its temperature were allowed to rise to its critical temperature - or higher - the material would no longer behave as a superconductor: it would acquire resistivity which would restrict the flow of current.
A material showing perfect conductivity and Meissner effect below a critical temperature Is this true or false?
Superconductor
Is water a superconductor?
Water is not a superconductor.
What makes zinc a superconductor?
a superconductor is a conductor that is at absolute 0 in temperature allowing free flow of electrons without slowing them down because of no resistance any conductor in theory can become a superconductor but has to be brought down to a very low temperature typically 0 kelvins
When was American Superconductor created?
American Superconductor was created in 1987.
Is salt water a superconductor?
No. Salt water is a conductor but not a superconductor.
A superconductor performs best at what?
Low temperature. A superconductor doesn't 'perform' at all, and isn't even a superconductor, above its critical temperature.
What material has no electrical resistance?
A superconductor. So far, it has only been possible to produce superconductors that work at extremely cold temperatures.
Is any magnatic field proof material?
Yes, a magnetic field won't penetrate a superconductor. That's called the Meissner effect.
