The neutron carries a positive electric charge while the what carries a negative charge?
I think you're confused. A neutron has no charge. An atom, however, is made up of negatively charged Electrons, Positively charged Protons, and No-charge Neutrons.
What is encountered by the electric current while flowing through a conductor?
ambot
Describe the difference between insulator and conductor?
Insulators prevent electric current from flowing, while conductors allow it to flow freely.
Is a magnet a conductor?
A magnet will conduct electricity.
Why does a balloon that has has static electric charge stick to the wall?
A balloon that has a static electric charge can stick to a wall because opposite charges attract each other. The balloon carries a negative charge, while the wall carries a positive charge (due to electrons being transferred from the wall to the balloon). This attraction between the opposite charges causes the balloon to stick to the wall.

What is an RCD cut the current to a circuit?
RCD cut the current to the circuit while preventing the electric shock
In direct current charges carries have a drift velocity but in alternating current there is no net velocity of the charge carriers. Explain why?
In direct current the charge carries always flow in the same direction, while in alternating current they change direction repeatedly, meaning overall there is no net direction.
The SI unit of electric current is?
The SI unit of electric current is the ampere. While it is an SI base unit, it can also be considered to be a combined unit, coulombs per second.
What colour code for 3 pin plug in NZ?
The live wire is brown in coulor while the earth wireis green and yellow in color and neutral wire is blue in colour. Uses of these three wire: Live wire:It's connected with fuse.It carries a voltage which drives electric current through the electrical appliances. Earth wire:It is a safety device and protect us from electric shock. Neutral wire:It offers a return path by electric current.
What is the purpose is of a diode?
The purpose of a diode is to allow electric current to pass in one direction while blocking electric current in the opposite direction. It is for this reason that diode is usually referred as the check valve.
What is sensor carburetor and electronic carburetor?
The sensor carburetor uses the sensors in its operation while the electric carburetor uses the electric current in its operation.
Distinguish fixed from current assets?
current assets are those assets which can be easily converted into cash while fixed asstes can not be easily converted into cash example fixed= land, building, machinery current= debtors , bill receviables
If current increases and resistance increases what would cause this?
The only way current can increase while resistance in a circuit increases is if voltage, which is the force that causes electric current, increases.
Is a gas or electric range better?
Both have advantages. Gas is typically a faster and more uniform heat, while electric provides a more easily controlled temperature.
What is a device that changes electric current into a different voltage?
Nothing can change electric current to voltage. You can compare "current " to rate of flow, while "voltage" is the energy level. Transformers can be used to increase or decrease the voltages of alternating current as is done from 'street power' to domestic power.
