Can hydrocarbon mixture conduct electricity?
As there are no free electrons to carry the electric current, hydrocarbons cannot conduct electricity (whether molten or not).
What two parts of an electric circuit are show in the picture?
Since we cannot see the picture... we cannot help you !
Why does an electric circuit that operates correctly need to be closed circuit?
In order to have the electricity or the flow or electrons going around the circuit, the circuit must be closed. If it is not closed then electrons cannot flow.
What is an open circuit fault?
An open circuit is a kind of electric circuit in which the path that the electrons follow cannot be completed because of an open gap that they cannot flow through.An open circuit is a circuit where the load resistance has been removed and replaced with an open, meaning there is no electrical connection between the two sides of the circuit.
What is the formula for the joules law for heat?
1. the filament of electric bulb is made up of tungsten as it has melting point of 3380 degree & it cannot be oxidised 2. electric fuse As a safely device which works on heating effect of electric current. the fuse wire is made up of copper, lead & tin. if a current larger than the specified value close to the circuit, the temperature of fuse wire increase. this melts the fuse wire & breaks the circuit.
What is the name for the status of a circuit that has breaks which electric current that cant flow?
The name for the status of a circuit that has breaks which electric current that can't flow is called a Closed Circuit. Electric current cannot flow through an open circuit.
What is generally not a possible condition in an electric circuit?
Current cannot flow through an open circuit.
Why electric current cannot exist if an electric circuit is broken?
Current flow is fully based on motion of electrons since there is no possibilities to motion electron in open circuit there no current flow.
Can air pass through oil layer?
The current cannot pass through the oils.Oils are moleculer so molecules cannot conduct electric current
What is electric current that flows through different parts of this circuit at the same time?
Cannot say without seeing the circuit.
Can hydrocarbon mixture conduct electricity?
As there are no free electrons to carry the electric current, hydrocarbons cannot conduct electricity (whether molten or not).
Is electric current stored anywhere?
Electric current is the movement of charge around a circuit and so cannot really be stored, however, the energy which it carries is stored in most things.
A solution conducts electric current can you use this property of the solution to determine if it is acid or basic?
No, you cannot, because both acidic and basic solutions can conduct electric currents.
Why must there be no gaps in an electric circuit for it to carry current?
Current travels through free electrons (These are present in most transitional metals and some allotropes of carbon (I.E. Graphite)), when there is a break in a circuit (No metal present) the current cannot travel the gap, unless it is of sufficient energy to "arc" through the air to connect the gap. However this will only occur if completing the circuit is the easiest and quickest way to ground itself (Hence why people get electric shocks, we, being made up of mostly water, conduct electricity better than air, so the current passes though us to ground).
How do you use a thyristor on a ac circuit?
A thyristor will conduct only if enough gate current is present on the gate and enough holding current flow trough it. Once on it will remain on until the holding current is reached then it will not conduct. Since AC is changing polarity it is possible to apply gate current at any time to make it conduct it will turn off when the AC cannot supply the holding current making it an ideal phase controller
Direct electric current cannot be used to operate A. Electric motors B. Electric heaters C. Electromagnets D. Transformers?
Direct electric current cannot be used to operate D. Transformers.
Does oxygen conduct electricity?
oxygen does not conduct electricity because it is a gas that we breath in and a gas that we cannot see so it cannot conduct electricity.
