Electrical attrition of carbon


A 40 amp current at 7 volts is passed though a 3/4 inch section of 1/4 inch carbon rod. Carbon is a good resistor and will convert the electrical energy to thermal energy efficiently (or INefficiently if you think about it!) as a perfect demonstration of how energy is usually wasted as heat and light (which is later absorbed by something and converted into heat).
