Why does amplifier use only forward bias?
because in forward connection the internal field is in a direction of the main current so the current passes while in the backward connection it is reversed so no current passes
What is the difference of a conductor from an insulator?
A Conductor like copper, conducts current or electricity while an Insulator works just the opposite it doesn't conduct current or electricity.
Does olivine form to anything when heated?
can heat form while heated
Why may copper losses be neglected in the open circuit test of a transformer?
Because the magnetising current is very small, so the primary losses are insignificant, while there is no secondary current, so there are no secondary losses.
What colour is copper oxide and why?
Copper has two oxides. Copper (I) oxide is red, while Copper (II) oxide is black.
Does water lose mass while heated?
no
Why does the chord of an electric heater not glow while the heating element does?
The element is made of special high resistance wire so the power is dissipated in the element rather than the low resistance cord.Power(watts) = Resistance (ohms) X {Current(amperes)}squared
When the mantle is heated the magma rises because?
When it is heated it becomes less dense (i.e. lighter). The more dense (i.e. heavier) magma sinks while the less dense magma rises to the top. It will eventually cool again causing a convection current within the mantle.
Does voltage vs current graph passes through origin?
Yes. While it isn't clear what device you are talking about, and different devices have different characteristic curves (for example, a straight line for a resistor), a voltage is required for a current to flow, so if there is no voltage, there won't be any current, either.
How does soil filter out copper?
The copper particles stick to the soil, while the water continues to filter through the soil. Therefore the copper stays in the soil while the water does not.
Where does matter charcoal go while burning?
graphite is a non metal and an element and because it is a weak conductor of electricity it lets electric current and heat flow through it and when electric current passes through it it faces resistance and glows.
Is it safe to use a heated blanket overnight, while sleeping?
Heated blankets are designed to be used overnight while sleeping, so there's little risk.
