What is the difference between the spark and arc please?
A spark is formed when the electric field strength exceeds the dielectric field strength of air. Meaning that when an area of space's electronic strength exceeds the area surrounding it, a spark occurs to modulate or evenly distribute the electrical strength. An Arc occurs when an highly conductive object with a high electrical charge is in the proximity of a highly conductive object with a low electrical charge, allowing the electrical field to travel through an area with lower conductive properties (such as air) to the object which is highly conductive but contains a lower charge than the other object. Rubbing your feet on a carpet and touching someone is a good example of this occurrence. The difference in a spark and an arc is a spark is a singular occurrence which only needs a single particle to occur and in order to create or induce an Arc, two object are needed.
Is osmium conductive?
Yes, osmium is a metal and is conductive.
What two classes of elements are conductive?
Metals and metalloids are conductive.
Is gum conductive?
No, gum is not conductive. It does not contain any metals or materials that can conduct electricity. However, chewing gum may become conductive if it picks up metal particles or other conductive material from its environment.
Which non metal is most conductive?
Graphite, which is a form of carbon, is the most conductive non-metal material. It has the ability to conduct electricity due to its unique structure that allows electrons to move freely along its layers.
What are the differences between conductive and nonconductive substance?
Conductive substances allow the flow of electricity due to their ability to carry an electric current, whereas nonconductive substances do not allow the flow of electricity. Conductive substances typically have free-moving electrons, while nonconductive substances have tightly bound electrons that do not facilitate the movement of electric charges.
What does pollution degree for a light dimmer mean?
Pollution Degree 1: No pollution or only dry, nonconductive pollution occurs. The pollution has no effect. Pollution Degree 2: Normally only nonconductive pollution occurs. Temporary conductivity caused by condensation is to be expected. Pollution Degree 3: Conductive pollution or dry nonconductive pollution that becomes conductive due to condensation occurs. To be found in industrial environment or construction sites (harsh environments). Pollution Degree 4: The pollution generates persistent conductivity caused by conductive dust, rain, or snow.
What is the difference between resistance and insulation?
Resistor is a current a insulator is a not conductive and conductors can conduct.
Is rubber electrically nonconductive?
Yes. Rubber is electrically nonconductive.
What is the difference between conductive and convective heat transfer mechanisms?
Conductive heat transfer occurs through direct contact between materials, while convective heat transfer involves the movement of fluids to transfer heat. Conductive transfer is more efficient in solids, while convective transfer is more effective in liquids and gases.
Is NaCl conductive?
Not as a solid, but dissolve it in water and the ions help electricity conduct through the saltwater. Totally pure water will hardly conduct electricity. The impurities in the water are what allows current to flow.
Difference between hygiene and sanitation?
Sanitation is the state of being clean and conductive to health whereas hygiene is a condition promoting sanitary practises. :)
What is the difference between plating and coating?
Plating is used for conductive materials while coating is used for non-conductive materials. My brass horn is silver plated while patio table is plastic coated.
What are the differences between conductive and nonconductive rubber?
When a material is identified as conductive it means that an electrical current can pass through that material. Some materials do not readily conduct electricity through the material, but will dissippate static electricity so that there is not a build up of charge on the material. Humidity and applied voltage can make a big difference on how effective the less conductive or the dissipative materials respond. Some other details about how fast a charge is released and so forth are also considerations when determining a materials response to electrical energy. In short, a conductive rubber has a Ohm resistance no larger that about 1,000,000 Ohms (often referred to as Ohms/square). Dissipative rubber has a resistance of about 1,000,000 to 1,000,000,000 Ohms. "Anti-Static" rubber is about 1,000,000,000 to 1,000,000,000,000 Ohms. Anything over this is considered insulative rubber. (refer to Boedeker.com for more detailed information).
Explain the difference between conductive and nerve deafness?
Conductive deafness is caused by the bones in the middle ear to pass on sound vibrations to the inner ear. Nerve deafness may be caused by a disease or some other event that injures the cochlear nerve.
Which materials are nonconductive?
gold silver and copper can not be conducted.
What is a a electrically nonconductive material?
any material that will not allow electricity to pass through it. rubber, plastic, some electrically conductive materials are metals, esp. gold, water, neon gases insulators, glass, paper :)
