Is coins conductor or insulator?

Coins are made of metal and therefore they are good electrical conductors.


Is a coin a conducto or a insulator?

Most coins are made of metals and most metals are conductors.


Is a penny a conductoror an insulator?

Pennies are coins. Coins are usually made out of metals. Metals are good conductors of electric currents, as well as good conductors of heat.


Are coins good or poor conductors of electricity?

Coins are made of metal and metals are good conductors of electricity.


Are coins insulators or conductors?

Nearly all coins are made of metal, which is a conductor.


Are all coins insulators?

Nearly all coins are metal so they're conductors, not insulators.


7 Give examples of a conductor and an insulator?

If we speak in terms of electrical conductivity, some good insulators are ceramics, plastics, rubber and glass. Conductors are, on the other hand, metals in general: copper, silver, gold, but there are some good conductors that are not metals, like graphite and some salt solutions.


Can you give a list of conductors and insulators?

conductors: (items that electricity/energy can flow (better)) copper, gold, metal, iron, steel, coins, (pennies, nickles, dimes, quarters, loonies, and toonies) brass, alligator clips and etc...(you can always search on a different website)


Home fires are often cause by people who replace fuses with coins why would they cause a problem?

Because most coins are not made out of pure copper any more, and do not make good conductors of electricity, which means that the current looses more energy by creating heat. Too much heat will cause a fire.


Are coins good heat conductors?

Yes... Especially pennies because of the copper in them. Most coins are made of metal: nickel, copper, iron or steel. Some rare and expensive ones are made of nearly pure gold and silver. All the metals are good electricity conductors.


Why is a cold mountain lake has more thermal energy than a hot cup of water?

Even though the lake has less energy by unit of volume, the lake is so much bigger that the total content is higher. It's like comparing a truckload of coins to a pocket of bills. Lower value, but more of it.
