Which is the conductor that produce higher energy
Answers
Answer:
Copper and aluminum both produce higher energy
Answer:
copper silver and aluminium
Explanation:
Silver is the best conductor of electricity because it contains a higher number of movable atoms (free electrons). For a material to be a good conductor, the electricity passed through it must be able to move the electrons; the more free electrons in a metal, the greater its conductivity. However, silver is more expensive than other materials and is not normally used unless it is required for specialized equipment like satellites or circuit boards. Copper is less conductive than silver but is cheaper and commonly used as an effective conductor in household appliances. Most wires are copper-plated and electromagnet cores are normally wrapped with copper wire. Copper is also easy to solder and wrap into wires, so it is often used when a large amount of conductive material is required.
Aluminum Works Well, But Has Risks
Aluminum, when compared by unit weight, is actually more conductive than copper and costs less. Aluminum material is used in household products or in wiring but it is not a common choice because it has several structural flaws. For example, aluminum has the tendency to form an electrically resistant oxide surface in electrical connections, which may cause the connection to overheat. Aluminum is instead used for high-voltage transmission lines (such as overhead phone cables) which can be encased in steel for additional protection.
Gold Is Effective But Expensive
Gold is a good electric conductor and does not tarnish like other metals when exposed to the air -- for example, steel or copper may oxidize (corrode) when in prolonged conduct with oxygen. Gold is especially expensive and is only used for certain materials, such as circuit board components or small electrical connectors. Some materials may receive gold plating as an electric conductor, or use a small amount of gold which is then platedg in another material to reduce manufacturing costs.
