Is an iron bar an insulator or a conductor?

An iron bar is a conductor of electricity due to its ability to allow the flow of electrons. Iron has a high electrical conductivity compared to insulators like rubber or plastic.


If an iron bar is inserted into a wire coil what would happen to the iron bar?

The iron bar would become magnetized when inserted into a wire coil carrying an electric current. This is because the electric current induces a magnetic field in the coil, which in turn magnetizes the iron bar.


How piece of iron bar of 12mm make one metric tone?

To calculate the weight of an iron bar, you need to know its length. Assuming a standard density of iron, the weight of a 12mm iron bar to be one metric ton would require a length of approximately 82.5 meters. This calculation is based on the volume of the iron bar and its density.


When a bimetallic bar made of copper and iron strips is heated the bar bends toward the iron strip. The reason for this is?

The copper has a higher thermal expansion coefficient than the iron. The copper wants to get longer relative to the iron so the bar bends away from the iron strip. For example if iron is on top and copper on the bottom the bar bows downward. This seems opposite to your question conclusion


Why is magnetism induced into an iron bar placed near a magnet?

When an iron bar is placed near a magnet, the magnetic field of the magnet aligns the magnetic domains within the iron bar. This alignment increases the overall magnetic field strength of the iron bar, effectively inducing magnetism in the bar.
