What is relationship between resistance and heat as electricity flows through a wire?
As electricity flows through a wire, resistance causes some of the electrical energy to be converted into heat. The heat produced is proportional to the amount of current flowing through the wire and the resistance of the wire. Higher resistance in the wire will result in more heat being generated.
Property of the filament that makes it light up when electricity flows through it?
Incandescence. The filament is heated by the electricity moving through it, this causes the filament to heat up, and the heat causes the familiar glow.
What happens to the electricity as it flows through the closed circuit?
Some is changed into light and heat energy and some continues through the curcuit
How does heat utilize electricity?
Heat can be generated using electricity through devices like electric heaters or stoves. When electricity flows through a conductor, such as a heating element, it encounters resistance which causes the conductor to heat up and produce heat. This heat can then be used for various purposes like warming a room or cooking food.
When electricity flows through the metal filament of a light bulb electrical energy is converted to?
Heat, which then produces light.
What is made when electricity flows through a wire?
When electricity flows through a wire, it generates an electromagnetic field around the wire. This can produce heat if the wire has resistance, such as in an incandescent light bulb, or it can power devices like motors or electronic gadgets.
A property that shows how easily heat or electricity flows through matter?
Conductivity - either thermal conductivity, or electrical conductivity.
What provides the energy to light a light bulb?
Electricity provides the energy to light a light bulb. When the electricity flows through the filament in the bulb, it generates heat and light.
When can electricity be transformed into heat energy?
Electricity turns into heat when it passes through a resistance. The amount of wasted power can be calculated as I2R. Whenever electricity is used by some machine, most of it will eventually turn into heat, too.
What part of electric fire gets hot when electricity flows though it?
The heating element in an electric fire gets hot when electricity flows through it. This element is usually made of materials that have high electrical resistance, causing them to generate heat as the electricity passes through.
Which device uses electricity in this way?
An electric kettle uses electricity to heat water quickly for making hot beverages such as tea or coffee. The heating element inside the kettle heats up when electricity flows through it, transferring heat to the water.
How do hair straightners heat up?
The heat is obviously generated by the the electricity which is provided by the socket. The the heat from the electricity conducts through the hair straightener resulting in the hair straightener to straighten your hair
