What causes electrons in an electric current to flow slowly in that circuit?
We don't normally think of electrons "flowing slowly" in a circuit. In general, electricity operates at the speed of light. It is circuit characteristics like conductivity and resistance that determine how much current will flow in a circuit when a given voltage is applied. We will discover that more conductivity will permit more current, and more resistance will limit current (for the same applied voltage).It is possible that inductance and capacitance could be looked at as circuit characteristics that cause current to "flow slowly" in that there is a time difference between when voltage and current appear in a circuit. But we usually think of electricity as a phenomenon that works at the speed of light.The answer that has been posted might confuse someone beginning an investigation of the way electricity works. But it is suggested that the basic models of electricity be considered and even reviewed to get a handle on the concept of electron flow. One idea that may be offered in closing is that when two ends (wires) of an electric circuit are connected to a voltage source, current will begin to flow. And when one electron "goes into" one end of the wire, one will "come out" of the other end. It is not the same electron. The electrons available to support current flow in the circuit will "shift over one place" to accommodate the current flow.Alternative AnswerElectrons move within a conductor in a rapid, chaotic, haphazard, way. When a potential difference is applied across a conductor, the electrons continue to move in this chaotic way; however there is a drift towards one end of the conductor. So, electron 'flow' is very, v-e-r-y, slow (an electron moving within a flashlight bulb's filament is unlikely to move throughout the length of that filament within the lifetime of the battery!), although the effect is more-or-less instantaneous along the length of the conductor.
What is the form of lullys french overture was?
Slowly.
How were the plains and lowlands created?
the erosion of the shield regions created the rest of each continent. rivers and glaciers carried eroded material, called sediment, intoancient seas. there, it accumulated into thickbeds that slowly solidified intosedimentry rock.
Are the two main islands of New Zealand slowly drifting apart?
Yes, very slowly they are.
A material that conducts electric current slowly is called?
a circuit
What is a material through witch an electric charges moves slowly?
A material through which electric charges move slowly is called an insulator. Insulators have high resistance to the flow of electric current, which causes the charges to move at a slower speed compared to conductors. Examples of insulators include rubber, glass, and plastic.
When a battery is connected to a complete circuit charges flow in the circuit almost instantaneously explain?
When a battery is connected to a complete circuit, an electric field is established almost instantly throughout the circuit. This electric field causes free electrons in the conductive material to begin moving, resulting in a flow of electric current. While the individual electrons travel relatively slowly, the effect of the electric field propagates at a significant fraction of the speed of light, allowing the current to appear to flow almost instantaneously. Thus, the response of the circuit is immediate, even though the actual movement of electrons is gradual.
A material in which thermal energy is transferred slowly is a?
Material with low thermal conductivity.
What are the advantages of ammeter?
A wattmeter is an instrument that measures the electric power of a circuit, in watts. A watt meter is installed in almost every house, and is used to determine a family's monthly electric bill.
How a current limit starter works for an electric motor?
it consists of a series of resistances, a magnet and a bar that is pulled by the magnet. Initially all the resistance comes in series so the current is limited. when the bar is pulled towards the magnet slowly the resistance decreases and the current increases. thus it protects the DC motor from initial high current.
What happens if you You wrap a wire around a piece of iron. and slowly increase the strength of an electric current flowing through the wire?
As the electric current flowing through the wire increases, the iron core becomes magnetized. The increasing current creates a magnetic field around the wire, which induces the iron core to also become magnetized. This process creates an electromagnet, which can attract magnetic materials or exert a magnetic influence.
An electric current occurs in a circuit when?
An electric current occurs in a circuit when a source of energy (or power, which is energy with a time factor) causes electrons to start slowly moving through the circuit at a speed of a few mm or cm per hour. This allows the quantity that we call charge to race through the circuit at a speed of roughly a million miles per hour, which is what we call electric current. Mathematically defined, electric current is the amount of charge which passes a given point in the circuit each second of time, I = Q/t .The source of energy or power can be as nearby as an energy cell or battery, or can be an electrical generating station located many miles away.
How does the material of the asthenosphere differ from the material of the lithoshere?
the material in the astehnosphere can flow slowly and the lithosphere flows on top of the astenosphere HOPE I HELPED!!
Can an electric discharge occur quickly or slowly?
An electric discharge can occur quickly or slowly depending on the conditions and the amount of energy involved. For example, a lightning strike happens quickly, while the discharge in a fluorescent light can be slower.
Why do you use resistors and capacitors in a circuit?
resistors and capacitors are used in order to create a path for the current , for the resistivity of the current , for the storage of the current.AnswerResistors don't just 'resist' electric current, they create a predictable change in voltage (electric potential) from one side to the other, so they can be used to adjust the expected voltage level at each point in a circuit.In an electric circuit with an unchanging current and voltage, capacitors simply store current and wait for something to change.In the more common electronic case of a circuit with voltage fluctuations, each capacitor is effectively a high-pass filter -- it permits quickly-fluctuating voltages to pass through, but reduces or stops slowly-fluctuating voltages.
What is the current called that is caused when dense salt water sinks to the bottom and slowly spreads?
Halocline current
