Electricity flows through a pencil when it is used as a conductor to complete a circuit. The graphite in the pencil lead allows electrons to flow through it, creating a closed path for the electricity to follow. This is possible because graphite is a good conductor of electricity.
What else can I help you with?
Is pencil lead a conductor of electricity?
yes pencil lead is a conductor it is made of graphite(a form of carbon) which is good conductor of electricity
How do you conduct electricity from anemometers?
through pencil lead.
What effect would a pencil have on the brightness of a bulb?
A pencil has nothing to do with the brightness of a light bulb.
Can electricity flow through titanium?
Titanium is a poor conductor of electricity.
What is the scientific name of a substance that lets electricity flow through it?
A substance that lets electricity flow through it is called a conductor (or sometimes, to be more explicit, it is called an electrical conductor). Substances which do not permit the flow of electricity are called insulators.
Will electric currents flow through a pencil?
Electric currents will not flow through a pencil because the graphite in a pencil is not a good conductor of electricity. Graphite is considered a semiconductor, so it does not allow electricity to flow as easily as a metal conductor.
Is pencil lead a conductor of electricity?
yes pencil lead is a conductor it is made of graphite(a form of carbon) which is good conductor of electricity
Can electricity flow through metal?
Yes, electricity can flow through metal.
Will Diet Coke conduct electricity through pencil leads attached to a battery?
yes, diet coke can conduct electricity through pencil because diet coke contain free moving ions that provide free moving electrons that can flows through carbon of the pencil. Pencil is a good electricity conductor.
How do you conduct electricity from anemometers?
through pencil lead.
Is a pencil an insulator or conductor of electricity?
Note: "electricity" is not conducted, only electrical current (the flow of electrons) is. Electricity is the field that covers all things electrical. The wood in a pencil is an insulator. If it is wet, it is a poorer insulator, but only a poor conductor. The carbon (lead) in the pencil is a poor conductor. The metal holding the eraser is a good conductor. The rubber eraser is a poor conductor. You really have to address the conductivity of specific substances, not items that are build from a variety of substances.
Howdoes Electricity flow through a wire?
Electricity flow through a wire as a result of the movement of electrons and hols.
Did electricity flow through the wire when the circuit was opened?
Electricity does not flow in an open circut
What effect would a pencil have on the brightness of a bulb?
A pencil has nothing to do with the brightness of a light bulb.
Can electricity flow through iron gold?
I don't know what "iron gold" is, but electricity will flow through any metal pretty well.
What is and electrical current?
current electricity is where electrons flow through a conductor.static electricity electrons do not flow
What does electricity not flow through?
Plastic
