THE EFFECTS OF AN ELECTRIC CURRENT
  1. thermal
    1. luminous
      1. The heat generated by the current may be so great that the conductor becomes incandescent. For example, the filament of a light bulb emits intense white light when heated by a current.
      2. chemical
        1. Chlorine is generated by the electrolysis of salt water. Electrolysis can also be used to break down water into hydrogen and oxygen. Because pure water does not conduct well, sulphuric acid has to be added before the electrolysis takes place.
        2. magnetic
          1. A current flowing through a conductor creates a magnetic field around it.
          2. When a current flows through a conductor it may heat the conductor
