Every substance is made up of tiny units called atoms. Each atom has electrons, particles that carry electric charges. Spinning like tops, the electrons circle the nucleus, or core, of an atom. Their movement generates an electric current and causes each electron to act like a microscopic magnet.

What bend flex?

Bend flex is a term used in snowboarding to describe the flexibility of the snowboard. A board with more bend flex will be more responsive and easier to turn, while a stiffer board will provide more stability at high speeds. Riders often choose a bend flex that aligns with their riding style and preferences.


Why does each wire in the flex have different colours?

Different colored wires are used in a flex cable to indicate their specific function or connection point. This color-coding system makes it easier for technicians and manufacturers to identify and trace the wires during installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting.


Do the wire act as inductance?

Yes, even a straight piece of wire has inductance. One metre (or yard) of household flex has about 800nH (0.8uH) of inductance. Winding wire into coils makes them more compact, and multiplies the inductance of the assembly through coupling between turns. Using straight pieces of wire, the inductance is proportional to the length, but in a coiled inductor with 100% coupling, the inductance is proportional to the turns (length) squared! In many applications, iron or ferrite cores are used to further increase the inductance.


What word means bend or cause to bend?

The word that means to bend or cause to bend is "flex." It can be used in both the context of bending a physical object or a person's body.
