1. induces magentic field around the conductor.

2.Generates heat in the conductor.

3. Causes shock if flows through human body.

Answer

The three 'effects' of an electric current are its heating effect, its magnetic effect, and its chemical effect.

It's magnetic effect (resulting in the force between parallel conductors) is used to define the ampere.

Name any 5 electric appliances that make use of heating effects of electric current?

Five electric appliances that make use of the heating effects of electric current are electric stoves, electric kettles, hair dryers, toaster ovens, and space heaters. These appliances contain heating elements that convert electrical energy into heat energy through the process of resistive heating. The heat generated by the electric current is then used for cooking, boiling water, drying hair, toasting bread, or heating a room.

What are the differences between electricity and electric current?

The difference is that "electric current" is a strictly defined, universally interpreted quantity, with a known method of measurement and a rigorously defined unit, whereas "electricity" is a slippery, rubber word, without any scientific definition, or method or unit of measurement, being the popular word used to mean any of the things, effects, or stuff related to electric charge and its motion.


Is this sentence incorrect any material that allows an electric current to pass through is called a battery?

Incorrect. Any material that allow electric current to pass through it is a conductor.


How you know by looking a wire if there is any current or not?

How can electricity be used to make a magnet?

Any time there is ANY flow of electric charges (any current), the current will be surrounded by a magnetic field.


why do circuits need fuses?

Any electric circuit need to be equipped with electric fuses to protect the electric appliances or any electric/electronic equipment from damage due to unexpected electric current sudden or transient increase.

Does electric current damage vehicle?

no because any current that is incident on the vehicle is protected by the grounding provided by the tyres.


Can an electric current be used to affect a compass needle?

Yes, an electric current can affect a compass needle because it creates a magnetic field. When the electric current flows through a wire, it generates a magnetic field around the wire, which can deflect the compass needle and change its direction.


What is the difference between electric currents and electric charge?

Electric current is a flow of electrons is a measure of the quantity of electrical charge passing any point of the wire in a unit time.And, electric current is measured in ampere (A).Whereas, electric charge is the quantity of electricity that flows in electric currents . And , it is measured in coulomb (C)
