Is sponge a good heat insulator?
it is good heat insulator, as it has air in it. as air is a good insulator of heat, the sponge, which has lots of pockets of air also becomes a good insulator
Is graphite a heat conductor or insulator?
insulator
Is a block of wood a block of wood a good insulator?
Yes
Does a thermal insulator keep heat in or out or both?
an ideal thermal insulator does not conduct heat at all,so it keeps heat out!
How is sound insulator similar to and different from a heat insulator?
vvvvvvv
What is the difference between a heat insulator and elctrical insulator?
an electrical insulator blocks the flow of electricity (like the rubber around power cords that stop you from getting electrecuted) and a heat insulator block the flow of heat (like a thermos)
Is wool a good insulator of heat?
yes it is because wool has air pockets which keep in all the heat and block out the conduction of heat, convection and radiation.
Is potato an insulator of heat?
a potato is not an heat insulator because it's skin,but if you take the skin off it will be a heat insulator
Is sponge a good heat insulator?
it is good heat insulator, as it has air in it. as air is a good insulator of heat, the sponge, which has lots of pockets of air also becomes a good insulator
If you were trying to heat soup would you want to use a good thermal conductor or a good thermal insulator Explain your answer.?
Conductor. You're trying to move heat, not block it.
Is graphite a heat conductor or insulator?
insulator
What objects block heat and electricity from passing through?
This sounds like you mean insulators. There's no material which is a perfect thermal insulator.
An object that can transfer heat easily is an?
An insulator. More specifically, a thermal (heat) insulator, as opposed to an electrical insulator, which suppresses the flow of electricity.
What is a good insulator and why?
a good insulator of heat keeps the heat in, so you stay warm
Is a block of wood a block of wood a good insulator?
Yes
What does the term 'insulator' means?
insulator is a object that is not a good conductorSo it keeps the heat in.
What does a heat insulator do?
. A insulator is an element in the genetic code.
