When the current flow through a circuit it means that the electrons flowing through it.As the atoms remain fixed at their respective positions.When these electrons strike with the atoms they lose energy(Kinetic energy).this lost k.e dissipate in the form of heat.
In general we can say that the more the resistance in the flow the more dissipation of heat will occur in order to more information plz cont(fahim.ch01@gmail.com)

What is the relationship between heat and current?
Heat is caused by resistance against electricity, or flow of current which is part of electricity. Electricity was made by physical power converted into electricity. The heat is caused by resisting the flow of electrical current.
What cause glow of a filament of bulb when current flows through it?
The current causes heat. The heat is high enough to radiate energy in the form of visible light.
What is effect of resistance in heat production in a current carrying conductor?
resistance will be high
Power is transmitted at high voltages because the corresponding current in the wires is?
If you transmit at high voltage, you can send the same power at low current (P=VI), this is good because high current, means that you have high resistance and then you lose power to heat.
What is caused by heat?
Heat is caused by vibrating molecules
Is caused by heat?
Heat is caused by vibrating molecules
What caused 1988 US Heat wave?
The 1988 US heat wave was caused by a dome of high pressure that trapped warm air over the central part of the country. This led to record-breaking high temperatures and prolonged heat stress, resulting in significant impacts on agriculture, infrastructure, and public health.
What does heat exhaustion result from?
Heat exhaustion is caused by exposure to high heat and humidity for many hours, resulting in excessive loss of fluids and salts through heavy perspiration.
How is heat caused?
heat is caused by vibrations of an atom or molecule.
What collapse or sudden illness with high fever and dry skin caused by exposure to excessive heat?
Heatstroke
Can heating devices be made by passing an electric current through a conductor of high resistance low resistance high conductivity low conductivity?
Heating is caused by current flow. Certain types of wire like tungsten emit more heat than other types. Lower resistance means higher current for a fixed voltage per Ohm's Law. So the efficiency of heating with electricity depends on the material of the conductor, the operating voltage and the resulting current. In most instances this will be a low resistance with high conductivity.
Examples of heating effect of electric current?
-kettle -electric heater that's all i have! :)) When a current passes through a wire, the wire heats up. This is caused by the conversion of electrical energy into heat energy. /the heat produced depends on the resistance of the wire.
