Metal that can be pulled into a wire is ductile. The most ductile metal is gold.
Copper (or alloys containing great amounts of copper) and aluminum (alloys) are the most common electric conductors with silver, gold and other rare metals used for specific purposes.
Various iron alloys are made into cable wire that are to withstand high tensile loads.
Baling wire is a metal, specifically a type of steel wire used for bundling materials like hay or straw.
Helium is not ductile. Helium is a gas, and ductile refers to metals, and basically is the ability to be drawn or pulled into a thin wire. Clearly, helium cannot be pulled into a thin wire.
Physical. The metal is still metal, even though now it's wire-shaped.
Copper wire is a common metal wire that allows electrons to flow through it easily due to its high electrical conductivity.
A thin strand of metal is called a wire.
When a piece of copper is pulled into a wire, the atoms in the metal rearrange themselves to align in the direction of the wire, resulting in elongation of the material. This process is known as plastic deformation, where the crystal structure of the metal adjusts to the new shape without breaking.
Harley Davidson decals can be removed from metal using metal wire or fishing line. Move the wire back and forth under the decal until it comes loose and can be pulled off.
No. The bond involves deloalised electrons. When a metal is pulled into a wire essentially there is movement of the metal atom lattice and the bonds are disturbed rather than broken. Its a different situation in a covalent giant molecule where localised ciovalent bonds have to be broken as the lattice is deformed.
Physical. The metal wire is still a metal wire after the change.
I can think of two different things this might be: 1. Dies can be used to make wire. The wire is pulled through a smaller hole to make a thinner wire. The tool with the small hole would be a die. 2. You might be referring to wire EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining). This is a way of cutting metal with electricity. It is often used in the fabrication of dies because it can cut through the hardest metal - metal that is too hard to cut with normal cutting tools.
Ductile
When a wire is pulled, it is said to be in tension. Tension is the force that stretches the wire and tries to pull it apart. This is in contrast to compression, which is the force that pushes a material together.
In most cases, copper is the metal used in wire.
The thickness of metal wire is inversely proportional to the guage number of the metal wire. So 28 guage metal wire is thicker than 30 guage metal wire.
A substance that can be pulled or drawn into wire is called ductile. Metals such as gold, silver, and copper are known for their ductility, which allows them to be stretched into thin wires without breaking.
Baling wire is a metal, specifically a type of steel wire used for bundling materials like hay or straw.
The word for a flexible strand of metal is "wire."
