explain the heating effect due to electric current and discuss its application
Answers
Explanation:
we have to take a conductor of heat then when we flow a amount of electric current through the conductor. after sometime, we observe that the conductor is hot, this phenomenon is called heating effect of electric current.
Heating effect of electric current:
When an electric current is passed through a conductor, the conductor becomes hot after some time and produce heat.
This happens due to the conversion of some electric energy passing through the conductor into heat energy.
This effect of electric current is called heating effect of current.
The heating effect of electric current is used in the following applications:
Electric Bulb: In an electric bulb, the filament of bulb gives light because of heating effect of electricity.
In the case of flow of higher voltage than specified, fuse wire melts and protects the electric appliances.
