High conductivity materials in absolute temperatures

AI Thread Summary
When a conductor reaches its critical temperature, it becomes a superconductor, exhibiting zero electrical resistance and allowing for the unimpeded flow of current. If the conductor is subsequently returned to a temperature above the critical threshold, it loses its superconducting properties and reverts to its original state, where resistance is present. The high conductivity achieved during the superconducting phase does not persist once the material is warmed back up. The discussion highlights the phenomenon of superconductivity, including its applications like magnetic levitation in trains. Understanding these principles is crucial for engineering students in the electrical power field.

what happen to the conductor if it reaches the critical temperature where high conductivity and then back to the original case does it preserve by an amount of high conductivity or high conductivity disappear
just a question I'm engineering student electrical power department

Welcome to the PF.

For schoolwork-type questions, we require that you show some effort in answering your question. What have you read about superconductivity so far? What do you think will happen?
 
all what I know that when a material be cooled to the critical temperature its changes to super conductive material and this mean no resistance so when we put voltage source for a short time there's a current move for un certain time &this property happens because there's no collision between electrons and each double of electrons be attracted to each other &if we put a magnet over super conducting material it will be hanged over it &Japanese man benefited it in flying train
no more because we don't have interest with this science in egypt
