What does copper and tin make?
Tin and copper make bronze, with bits of coal to make brass. some may think it makes a solid bronze bar by playing runescape, alot of things in runescape are incorrect when it comes to the ores, smelting, and smithing
Why do cars not use solid fuel?
Because if they did the car would not be able to move because it is solid and 1: you could not fit it in the car hole 2: you would not get anywhere 3: we are better of using liquids like petrol and diesel
Tube and pipe?
Tube is a made up of rubber, while pipe is a round solid material.
What is another name for aerogel?
Solid blue smoke is one... I'm about 90 percent sure
What metal has lowest thermal conductivity?
Mercury, apparently Bismuth has the lowest thermal condctivity of metals that are solid at room temperature.
What is the advantage of using a stranded copper conductor over a solid copper conductor?
It would of course depend on the specific application. Current tends to travel on the surface of a conductor and a stranded conductor has more surface area and thus offers less resistance to the current. Stranded wire also bends a bit easier than the corresponding size solid wire.
How do you calculate diameter of a copper wire conductor and how do we calculate resistance of a copper wire conductor of a particaular length?
You go to the NEC and look at the chart for developed length and the ambient temperature and the load factor and if it solid or stranded wire as stranded allows for more voltage
What are the differences between THHN solid and stranded wires?
THHN solid wires have a single, solid conductor, while THHN stranded wires have multiple smaller strands twisted together. Solid wires are more rigid and better for long runs, while stranded wires are more flexible and better for applications that require frequent bending.
What is the advantage of stranded wires?
Flexibility is the main advantage of stranded wires; however for high frequency AC (i.e. radio frequencies), stranded wires increase the surface area, minimizing the skin effect (i.e. high frequency current avoiding the core of a wire, increasing its resistance at that frequency). This is not an issue at typical power frequencies (e.g. 60Hz) as the skin effect is still insignificant at those frequencies.
Is a solid rod of copper a better conductor than a hollow rod of copper?
Yes, a solid rod of copper is a better conductor than a hollow rod of copper because the solid rod has more metallic structure and more pathways for electrons to move through. In contrast, the hollow rod has less material and fewer pathways for electron flow, resulting in higher resistance to electrical conduction.
Why is speaker wire stranded not solid?
high frequencies utilize the skin effect, running on the exterior of the conductor, with low frequencies utilizing the core of the conductor. Stranded wire has more skin area and would enhance higher frequencies, while solid wire would enhance lower frequencies. stranded is more flexible
Difference between solid and stranded conductors?
In a solid conductor there will be only one conductor ,but in stranded conductors there are several conductors twisted together to make a whole conductor ,this is mainly done to increase flexibility of the Conductor .
What are the differences between solid and stranded THHN wires and which type is more suitable for my electrical project?
Solid THHN wires are made of a single, solid conductor, while stranded THHN wires are made of multiple smaller strands twisted together. Solid wires are more rigid and better for long runs, while stranded wires are more flexible and better for applications that require frequent bending. The choice between the two types depends on the specific needs of your electrical project.
Four examples of solid conductor?
aluminium, coal, iron and copper
What is the recommended type of wire for electrical installations that require high current capacity, such as 10 gauge solid copper wire?
The recommended type of wire for electrical installations that require high current capacity, such as 10 gauge solid copper wire, is typically stranded wire. Stranded wire is made up of multiple smaller wires twisted together, which allows for better flexibility and conductivity compared to solid wire.
What is the difference between stranded copper and tinseld copper wire?
bare copper is pure copper, while tinned copper is having light coating of Tin over it, preferred where soldering phenomenon is req. while the bare copper is good conductor then tinned copper.
What is a Grounded conductor?
The grounded conductor (Neutral) can be white or gray. The grounding conductor can be solid green, Green with a yellow tracer or bare copper.
