metals can be drawn into wires. give short reason
Answers
Explanation:
This prosees is called ductillity
Explanation:
Metals have a unique property called Ductility.
The term "ductile" literally means that a metal substance is capable of being stretched into a thin wire without becoming weaker or more brittle in the process.
Ductility is a measure of a metal's ability to withstand tensile stress—any force that pulls the two ends of an object away from each other.
Ductile metals can be used in more than just conductive wiring. Gold, platinum , and silver often are drawn into long strands for use in jewelry, for example. Gold and platinum are generally considered to be among the most ductile metals. Steel cables are possible because of the ductility of the alloys being used in them. Metals with high ductility—such as copper —can be drawn into long, thin wires without breaking. Copper historically has served as an excellent conductor of electricity, but it can conduct just about anything. Metals with low ductilities, such as bismuth , will rupture when they're put under tensile stress.
