When electricity flows through a wire, it generates an electromagnetic field around the wire. This can produce heat if the wire has resistance, such as in an incandescent light bulb, or it can power devices like motors or electronic gadgets.

Does electricity flow through wire or around its magnetic field?

Eiectricity flows through wire not around the magnetic field.


How the charge of a wire changes when the electricity current flows in the wire?

When electricity current flows through a wire, the charge of the wire does not change. The flow of electrons creates an electrical current, but the total charge of the wire remains constant.

What is relationship between resistance and heat as electricity flows through a wire?

As electricity flows through a wire, resistance causes some of the electrical energy to be converted into heat. The heat produced is proportional to the amount of current flowing through the wire and the resistance of the wire. Higher resistance in the wire will result in more heat being generated.


What part of electric fire gets hot when electricity flows though it?

The heating element in an electric fire gets hot when electricity flows through it. This element is usually made of materials that have high electrical resistance, causing them to generate heat as the electricity passes through.


What causes a magnetic field to be produced around a wire?

Current flows through a wire and produces a magnetic field.


What small piece of wire melts if it gets to hot due to electricity?

A FUSE Wire. It is made of a very soft low melting point metal. If too much Amperage (electricity) flows through the wire it heats up and melts the wire into a liquid, thereby breaking the electrical circuit.


How can the electricity pass through the rubber cover over the wire when a circuit is connected in parallel?

Electricity can pass through the rubber cover because rubber is actually a good insulator, meaning it doesn't conduct electricity. The electricity flows through the wire inside the rubber cover, which acts as a barrier to prevent the current from passing through the rubber material itself. In a parallel circuit, the current has multiple paths to take, so it bypasses the rubber covering and flows through the wire.


How do you make magnisim using electricity i dont know?

When electric current flows through a wire, a magnetic field is created around the wire.


How does electricity flow through a wire?

Electricity flows through a wire when electrons move from atom to atom. This movement creates an electric current, which is the flow of electric charge. The flow of electrons is driven by a voltage difference, or potential difference, between the two ends of the wire.
