A current-carrying coil of wire that acts like a magnet when a current passes through it.
A magnetic field generates around the wire.
Because the wire has resistance.The power (number of watts) dissipated by any resistance when current passes through it is(the number of amperes of current)2 multiplied by (the number of ohms of resistance).To reduce the power lost from the wire, the choices are:-- reduce the current passing through the wire-- use thicker wire-- keep the wire as cold as possible.(If the wire is made of the right material, and you make it cold enough,then all of its resistance disappears, and it's called a "superconductor".)
When current is passed through the wire, the negatively charged electrons (Current) face resistance as the molecules of the conductor block their way. These moving electrons collide with the molecules of the conductor and heat is produced which heats up the metallic wire.
-kettle -electric heater that's all i have! :)) When a current passes through a wire, the wire heats up. This is caused by the conversion of electrical energy into heat energy. /the heat produced depends on the resistance of the wire.
though electrons
pricinples of electromagnetism state that when current passes through a piece of wire magnetic field is generated around the piece of wire and when a piece of wire passes through the magnetic field current is induced into the piece of wire

Most obviously thermal stresses are produced in a wire when current passes through it. When current passes through a wire, electrons collide with each other and result in heating of the wire element. As a result of this heating, thermal stresses are generated in the wire.
It will get hot.

current = voltage/resistanceAssuming the 240 volts is across the 100 ohm wire, 2.4 amperespower = current * voltageResulting in the wire dissipating 576 watts... One hot wire!
The battery provides the current and the energy; the lamp consumes the energy when the current goes through it; the copper wire conducts the current; and the switch lets you close or open the circuit (so that current passes, or doesn't pass, through).
