Electricity is the device that control?
A: Electricity is not a device but rather a fiscal flow of electrons
What is a material which allows electricity to flow through it but with but with resistance?
A "resistance" or "resistor".
Difference between electronic and electrical appliances?
The ELECTRICAL device is in which the current passes through a CONDUCTOR and the ELECTRONIC device is in which the current passes through a SEMICONDUCTOR.
Can a diode work in ac?
A diode is a "one-way valve" that allows electrical current to flow in only one direction. A diode placed in series between an AC voltage source and a resistive load will allow current to flow through the load in one direction and block the current when the polarity of the AC voltage changes.
Something that will not let electricity flow through it is an?
Note that "electricity" doesn't flow, only current, which is one aspect of electricity, does. Current is the flow of electrons. Anything that doesn't allow current is an insulator
What is a semiconductor device that allows electricity to flow in only one direction?
A "diode" will allow current to pass thru it in only one direction, provided you don't overload it.
What is the function of an diode?
The easy answer is it allows electricity to flow in one direction but prevents it from flowing the other direction.
How current are made?
You cause the current to flow through an electronic device that allows current to flow in one directionbut not in the other direction. Such a device is called a "diode" or a "rectifier".
An electronic device that limits the amount of current that can flow through it?
Not in normal circumstances. A diode is an electonic device that allows current to flow freely in only one direction.
Electricity is the device that control?
A: Electricity is not a device but rather a fiscal flow of electrons
What is the Device in a circuit to make it harder for electricity to flow?
the device is a resistor
What gives electrons there electricity?
Electrons don't have electricity they only posses energy, Electricity is defined as the flow of electrons! In conductors the flow of valence electrons are called Electricity! therefore inducing a current in it! generally the direction of flow the current is the opposite of the direction of flow of electrons(D.C)!
What is a device that resists the flow of electricity in a circuit?
A resistor.
Which direction does electricity flow with a d-cell?
sraight
What do you call a material that allows electricity to flow through it easily?
A material that electricity can conduct electricity.
What device used to stop and start the flow of electricity in a circuit is a?
A switch is a device that stops and starts current flow in a circuit.
What do you mean the word diode which is used in electronics?
Diode is a Two terminal device which allows flow of curent in forward direction that means it converts DC to AC
