Question

why does the cord of an electric oven not glow while its heating element does? ​

Answer 1

• The heating element of the heater is made up of alloy which has very high resistance so when current flows through the heating element, it becomes too hot and glows red. But the resistance of cord which is usually of copper or aluminum is very low so it does not glow.

I hope it's helpful...!!
