Name the black substance of pencil. Will the current flow through the electrical circuit when we use the sharpened ends of the pencil to complete the circuit?
The black substance inside a pencil is graphite.
Yes, the current will flow through the electrical circuit when we use the sharpened ends of the pencil to complete the circuit, as graphite is a good conductor of electricity.
