What is the speed of electricity in copper?

The speed of electricity in copper is typically around 95 of the speed of light, which is approximately 186,282 miles per second.


What is the name of the particle which flow through copper in order to make a light bulb light?

It is called metal,plastic or steel so copper is also magnetic which alows the copper to make the bulb be brighter and to light up thankk you for listening...


How fast can sound waves travel in copper wire?

Sound waves can travel at a speed of around 4,920 meters per second in copper wire. This speed is dependent on the material properties of copper, such as its density and elasticity.


What speed does data travel through copper wires?

I would assume that the speed is higher than the speed of light, as experiments by Goudsmidt and Uhlenbeck in the mid 1920s showed the electrons spin (orthorotates) 1,7 times the speed of light - assuming ressonance occurs, the electrons absorbing the sound wave (at the microphone) ressonate with the electrons emitting the wave (at the speaker) and the sound is transfered 'imediatetely' through quantum ressonance. If the sound travelled with the electrons, the sound would travel 2-3 cm per sec. This does not happen. The sound waves probably are not transformed to photons - travelling at light speed - if that were the case, how could the copper core in an insulated wire (rubber or plastic) absorb the photons? Nor are they transformed to other quarks or elementary particles. This is an example of electron ressonance, the electrons absorb, transmit and recieve the physical wave of sound from one part of the copper wire to the next. This ressonance ensures that the speed of light is ecceded. The sound travels in the form of rotating electrons in ressonance in the two parts of the wire.

What are the disadvantages of using optical fiber instead of copper wire for communications?

Optical fiber carries signals through light, and therefore at light speed, the fastest possible, and gets less hot. Copper wire transmits information using electricity, which although fast, is not nearly as fast as light. Fiber optics allows faster transmission of data.
