A dime is a conductor of electricity because it is made of metal. Metal objects like dimes allow electric current to flow through them easily.
A dime , being made of metal , is malleable and can undergo a process that will change it's shape .
The radius of a U.S. dime is approximately 10.5 mm. This makes the diameter of the dime about 21 mm, as the diameter is twice the radius.
