Would is better for energy glass rod cotton string plastic tubing or copper penny?
Copper penny
If a copper wire in a working electric circuit is replaced by a piece of rubber tubing will there be a current in the circuit?
No, a rubber tubing is an insulator and will not allow the flow of electric current like a conductor such as copper wire would. Therefore, if the copper wire is replaced by rubber tubing, the circuit will be broken and no current will flow.
Can you describe a situation where a series circuit could be used to operate an electrical device?
A series circuit could be used to operate a string of Christmas lights. Each light bulb would be connected in a series, so that if one bulb burns out, the entire string would stop working. This setup ensures that all lights in the series receive the same amount of current.

What is a reusable circuit protector a circuit breaker - a fuse - a 10 gauge copper wire or a three prong outlet?
A circuit breaker is the only reusable circuit protector in that list. A fuse is also circuit protection, but it is not reusable. A length of wire can work like a fuse in some applications, such as feeding transformers on poles, but the wire would have to be small enough of a gauge to be able to burn out when overloaded. However, the wire would need replaced after an overload. A three prong outlet is for protecting humans, not circuits. The ground wire is for providing a low impedance fault current path back to the breaker to trip the faulted circuit's breaker (or fuse). The opening of the circuit will prevent a possible fire. However, a three prong outlet doesn't actually provide the protection of tripping the circuit.
Is a cotton string a conducter for electricity?
No, cotton is an insulator and does not conduct electricity. This means that a cotton string would not allow electric current to flow through it.
What happens when you replace a wire in a circuit with a piece of string?
Well, you have almost invented the string can telephone!! Keep at it..second answer since ordinary string is not a conductor, you no longer have a circuit. Remember a circuit is a continuous path.
What kind of string is used in cooking?
Usually cooking string or twine is 100% cotton. There are probably some other fibers that would be safe to cook with, but I've only used cotton.
Would is better for energy glass rod cotton string plastic tubing or copper penny?
Copper penny
Why was the parelllel circuit created?
Remember the old Christmas lights that were a simple circuit. When you plugged the string in, hopefully, they would light up. If they didn't light up, you had to take a proven good bulb and screw it in to each light socket on the string until you found the faulty bulb. With a string of lights wired into a parallel circuit, you or wouldn't have to do that. You could identify the faulty bulb right away because it would be the only one which did not light up.
Which material would best conductor for circuit A wooden stick Bcotten string Cglass rod Dcopper wipes?
Dcopper wipes would.
If the length of a piece of string... is any length of string cut from a spool... 'what is the maximum length of a piece of a piece of string' or 'how much string is on a spool'?
100 metres seems to be the length of a spool of gardeners cotton Discuss:How_long_is_a_piece_of_string...we are not talking about jute twine here!So the maximum length of a piece of string would be 999.99mm!So the real answer to 'how long is a piece of string?' would be...anything between 0.01mm to 999.99mm.
What would happen if a circuit wire is replaced by a longer one?
the brightness of the bulbs would decrease because the cell would have to supply more power.
What is the best kind of string to use to make a friendship bracelet?
Yarn, embroidery floss, and other cotton or wool related items would be perfect.

What type of circuit would be used in lighting circuit?
A lighting circuit would be a parallel circuit.
