Question :

Explain why are the conductors of heating devices like toaster are made of an alloy?Submitted on 18/1/2024 | Answered by Vandana Rana

Answer :

Elements of heating devices are made up of alloys because :

1) They have high melting points.
2) They have high resistance so when even a small magnitude of current passes through them they get heated up enormously.
3) They do not oxidise readily.
