Yes, electricity can pass through two wires if they are connected in a circuit where there is a complete path for the electricity to flow. If the wires are not connected in a closed circuit, the electricity will not flow between them.

What are the two application of magnetism?

Two different applications of magnetism are: 1. Construction of a Compass. The indicator needle must be magnetized. 2. Generation of electricity. Conductors must pass through a magnetic field in order to generate a current in the wires.


Does electrey faster in thick wire or thin one?

The speed of an electric signal or current depends on the material, not on the thickness. In metal, it is usually about 2/3 the speed of light in a vacuum. On the other hand, a thin wire has a higher electrical resistance than a thick wire (other things being equal). But this does not affect the speed.


What affects the amount of current that can go through a wire?

1. The potential difference given to the conductor 2. The resistance of the conductor 3. The change in magnetic field linked with the conductor 4. The temperature of the conductor 5. The material that we have chosen as the wire


How is electricity generated using wind turbines?

There are two basic ways we have today of generating electrical energy: 1). Photovoltaic panels, those greenish-blue glass things that when the sun shines on them, you can get electricity out of them. 2). An electrical generator ... there are two wires hanging out of, and when you spin the shaft, you get electrical energy out of the wires. Method #2 has always been the more common. -- At hydroelectric dams, falling water turns the generator shaft, and you get electrical energy out of the wires. -- At coal-fired, oil-fired, or gas-fired electric plants, you burn coal, oil, or natural gas, boil water with it, use the steam to turn the generator shaft, and you get electrical energy out of the wires. -- At nuclear power plants, you use the heat from uranium fission to boil water, use the steam to turn the generator shaft, and you get electrical energy out of the wires. -- In your car, you use a belt off of the gas-engine to turn the generator shaft, and you get electrical energy out of the wires. -- In a wind farm, you put up a giant pinwheel in a place where the wind always blows. The wind turns the pinwheel, the pinwheel turns the generator shaft, and you get electrical energy out of the wires.


What is the definition for conductivity?

1. The act of conducting, as of water through a pipe.2. Physics .a.the transfer of heat between two parts of a stationary system, caused by a temperature difference between the parts. 3.Physiology . the carrying of waves, electrons, heat, or nerve impulses by a nerve or other tissue.

How is the number of units of electricity consumed by motor in 2 hours calculated?

You can buy a volt meter, which can calculate how much electricity is passing through the wires.


Does electric charges travel only through wire?

There are 2 questions in this : 1: if it is about material... A: No electric charges can also travel through all the conductors of electricity like water, humans, animals, metals etc. 2: if it is about area in which electric charges pass through... A: No, If current is AC then it travels on the surface of the wire, and if the current is DC then it travels through the wire evenly.


Why isn't one wire enough to make it the work?

Because you need 2 wires to go into the ___ to make it work. You need 2 wires to make the electricity go into the ___ equally.


What did railroads use to conduct electricity along railroad?

The early railroads established "polelines" to carry telegraph wires and electricity alongside the railroad tracks. These looked like what are called telephone poles today, but could have large "crossarms" at the top to carry many wires. These began with just 2 or 4 wires for telegrph use, which later had 2 wires for electricity added. As technology advanced, more wires were added to control trains and send other messages along the lines.

How many wires can be pulled through a 1 inch hole?

The answer will differ depending on the size of the wires that are to be pulled through a one inch (25mm) hole. How many 12/2 wires can be pulled through a 1" hole. I will also use some 14/2 and 12/3 .

How do chemicals currently impact your energy usage?

Chemicals in certain areas affect energy usage. If it has a positive or negative charge it can allow energy to pass through it easily. 1.) H2O has covalent bonds so the electron is shared, now if electricity goes through it. It can pass easily because it has a path connected by electrons. 2.) now if lightning tries to pass through wood it has resistance because its a insulator.


At what time can you pass through airport security?

You can pass through airport security at the time specified on your boarding pass, typically 2-3 hours before your flight departure.


Does electricity continue to flow through a table lamp when the switch is on and the bulb is removed from the lamp?

Electricity flows by any conductor.But the most used to flow electricity is copper. Now if there is any problem with a wire even if it is a conductor the electricity will not flow.Sometimes when trying to make an electric circuit the electricity does not flow,if the wirehas no problem it is a problem with connection to make that work you just put silver paperbetween the 2 wires that have a problem in connecting to the bulb or any such thing.
