What is a material that conducts electric current slowly?
Material with high resistance
Will a circuit component with a high resistance will have a low electric current?
Yes
What effect does decreased resistance have on a circuit?
resistance is the opposition to the flow of an electric current, therefore the current will decrease as the resistance increases. Resistance also creates heat. This is how the light globes in a circuit light up.
A material that conducts electric current slowly is called?
a circuit
What is the formula of electric current?
the formula for electric current is VI ,where v is voltage then I is the current. the unit used for current is ampere and volts for voltage. multiply the total I to the Voltage The formular of electric current is given by I=V/R ,I=P/V
What is a material that conducts electric current?
Material with high resistance
What is a material that will carry an electric current called?
A material that will carry an electric current is called a conductor. Conductor materials have high electrical conductivity, allowing the flow of electric charges with minimal resistance. Examples of conductors include metals such as copper, aluminum, and silver.
What is a material that conducts electric current slowly?
Material with high resistance
What is the meaning of electrical resistance?
Definition Of Resistance In Electrical:Property of a material to oppose the flow of electric current through it is called Resistance.
If a material conducts electricity easily what will it have?
It must have a low resistance to the flow of electric current.
Does R value means the resistance a material has to the flow of heat?
No, to the flow of electric current.
What material allows electric current to pass through?
Electric current flows in conducting materials such as metals. The best conductor of electric current is silver, followed closely by copper and then aluminium.
What is a resistance of a material?
Resistance is the opposition to the flow of electric current. It is affected by the length, cross-sectional area, and resistivity of a material. As resistivity is affected by temperature, temperature indirectly affects resistance.
Definition of insulators of electricity?
That refers to a material that doesn't let an electric current through easily - a material with a high resistance,
Is the continuous flow of charges through a material is called electric resistance?
No, it's called 'current'.
What will an electric current follow?
An electric current follows the path of least resistance.
What is electrical conductance?
Electrical conductivity is the measure of a material accommodates the transport of electric charge. Its SI derived unit is the siemens per metre, (A2s3m−3kg−1) (named after Werner von Siemens) or, more simply, Sm−1. It is the ratio of the current density to the electric field strength or, in more practical terms, is equivalent to the electrical conductance measured between opposite faces of a 1-metre cube of the material under test
