What else can I help you with?
A thicker resistance wire produces more heat?
I'm not sure what you mean by "thicker resistance" wire? The thicker or more diameter of a wire the less resistance it has. A larger diameter wire would produce less heat. More resistance would produce more heat.
What test would you perform to discover whether a metal bar is a magnet or not?
You can perform a simple test by bringing a compass close to the metal bar. If the compass needle moves or aligns with the metal bar, then the bar is likely a magnet. Another test involves observing if the metal bar can attract small metal objects like paper clips.
Do thicker metals have more electrons?
Thicker metals do not necessarily have more electrons. The number of electrons in a metal is determined by its atomic structure, which remains the same regardless of the metal's thickness. However, thicker metals may have a higher density of electrons due to a larger number of atoms present.
What happens to the particles in a metal when the metal is heated?
When a metal bar is heated....the particles in the area of the metal bar that is hot start vibrating.. knocking into each other and passing the heat energy on to cooler particles. The cooler end that isn't heated still has a rise in temperature just not as much as the heated area because the heat has almost been diluted.
A hot metal bar is placed into cool water what statement is true?
The temperature of the metal bar decreases.The temperature of the cool water increases.The final temperature of the metal bar will be the same as the final temperature of the water.
Why are the sides of the saucepan made out of steel?
So that the heat from the fire or hob that is underneath it can heat the object inside as metal is a conductor.
How does heat travel through metal?
the answer is that it travels by conduction. thank you.
Jimmy held the end of a metal bar over a fire while holding on to the opposite end After a few minutes the end he was holding began to get very hot Which process is illustrated in this example?
This example illustrates the process of heat transfer through conduction, where heat is transferred from the fire through the metal bar to Jimmy's hand. The metal bar acts as a conductor of heat, allowing the energy to flow from the hot end to the cooler end.
Is 24 gauge thicker than 18 gauge?
Smaller number is thicker metal.
Will a metal expand if it's thicker?
Yes, metal will expand when heated regardless of its thickness. Thicker pieces of metal will expand in all dimensions, but the expansion will be proportional to the increase in thickness.
What is the transfer of heat from warm to cold areas called?
If you heat one end of a metal bar then the heat passes along the bar by a process known as conduction.
What is thicker 28 or 30 gauge?
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.
Is a wood cabin warmer than a metal shelter?
Yes. A snow cave would be warmer than a metal shed. Mainly because a snow cave has more insallation than a metal shed and the coldness outside wil make the metal cold thus makes the shed cold. Snow is thicker thand a metal shed.
Which is thicker 18 gauge or 12 gauge metal needles for bead craft?
The 12-gauge is thicker.
Which is thicker 12 gauge or 20 gauge?
12 gauge is thicker than 20 gauge. The lower the gauge, the thicker the sheet metal or wire.
What does it mean if something is a conductor of heat?
It means that heat is transferred fairly fast through it. (A metal bar is a good conductor of heat, while wood is not). For example, you will not be able to touch a metal bar whose one end is in a blazing fire. While you can easily hold a torch of which one side is burning.
Is 400gauge thicker than100gauge?
No. The lower the gauge the thicker the material. This is common in sheet metal and wire thickness (diameter).
