What else can I help you with?
Why would an electric wire be covered with an insulatos such as plastic?
Plastic being nonconducting, it avoids electrocution when covered around electric wire.
The combination of the magnetic field of the coiled wire and the iron create a very what magnet?
The combination of the magnetic field of a coiled wire wrapped around an iron core will create a very useful electromagnet. This is the bases used in the construction of mechanical relays.
What is the direction of the magnetic field if the current is directed upward or downward?
The direction of the magnetic field is counterclockwise or clockwise. For a current flowing in a wire you can use the "left hand rule" If you take your left hand and have the thumb point in direction of electron flow in the wire, the fingers wrapped around the wire will show the direction of the magnetic field by the direction the fingers are pointed..
Is there a voltage carrying limit of wire?
Yes it depends on many variables such as what the wire is made of the size of the wire whether the wire is a multi strand wire. What governs the amount of voltage a wire can carry is the insulation that is wrapped around the wire. Like wire with ratings of 300 volts, 600 volts and 1000 volts these are the highest allowable voltages that can be applied. A wire that is rated for 300 volts is good for 120 volts, 240 volts and 277 volts. At test research facilities, insulation is tested to destruction. The label that is given to the wire insulation as a result of the tests is the highest safest voltages that can be applied to that particular type.
What are paperclips made of?
Steel Wire in most cases but they can be made of plastic, or aluminum.
Is plastic wrapped around the electric wires is a good conductor?
Plastic wrapped around the wire is insulator. Not a conductor. That is why it is wrapped around the conductor wire.
Why did the wire wrapped around the pole because it was?
The wire wrapped around the pole due to a force such as wind, a reaction to being pulled or pushed, or a twist in the wire causing it to spiral around the pole.
What was wrapped around an iron bar to create the first electromagnet?
A copper wire was wrapped around an iron bar to create the first electromagnet.
Can a wire be wrapped around a screw clockwise or counter clockwise?
Well, it CAN be wrapped either way, but because standard screws tighten when turned clockwise:if the wire is wrapped around the screw clockwise tightening the screw will pull the wire tighter around the screwif the wire is wrapped around the screw counterclockwise tightening the screw will push the wire away from the screw making it loose and maybe even popping the wire out from under the screwSo, if you want the wire to stay secure on the screw only wrap it clockwise!
Why copper electrical wires need to be wrapped in plastic?
Copper wires are wrapped in plastic to provide insulation and protection against moisture and other potential damage. The plastic coating helps to prevent short circuits and ensures the proper flow of electricity through the wire.
How does the presence of copper wire wrapped around a magnet affect the magnetic field produced by the magnet?
When copper wire is wrapped around a magnet, it creates an electromagnet. This increases the strength of the magnetic field produced by the magnet.
When a current -carrying wire wrapped around an iron core what can it create?
a magnet
When a current carrying wire is wrapped around an iron core what can it create?
a magnet
Why would an electric wire be covered with an insulatos such as plastic?
Plastic being nonconducting, it avoids electrocution when covered around electric wire.
When current-carrying wire is wrapped around an iron core what can it create?
It creates a magnet and magnetism.
What does a electric wire wrapped around a nail cause?
When an electric wire is wrapped around a nail and connected to a power source, it creates an electromagnet. The current flowing through the wire generates a magnetic field, causing the nail to become magnetized. This setup is commonly used in electromagnets and various electrical devices.
Suppose you had a pipe with circumference 8cm and length 20 cm and that 8 turns of a wire are wrapped around the pipe. What is the length of the wire?
56.60
