What else can I help you with?
Why is it advised to clean the ends of connecting wires before connecting them?
because electricity flows very nicely through copper but not so well through dirt.
What is the best description of conductivity and how does it relate to the flow of electrical current through a material?
Conductivity is a measure of how well a material can conduct electricity. It is related to the flow of electrical current through a material because materials with high conductivity allow electricity to flow easily, while materials with low conductivity impede the flow of electricity.
What is an insulator electricity?
A material which is very resistant to electrical flows. Typical insulators are rubber, plastics, ceramics and glass.A material that blocks the flow of electrical current. ie, porcelain, bakelite, rubber etc.
What can prevent the path of electricity?
The current of electricity flows well with conductors. So by placing an insulator in the path of the electricity you can stop the current.
Is a comb a conductor?
Combs are made of plastic, and plastic is not a great conductor of electricity.
Is a book a conductor?
No, a book is not a conductor. A conductor is a material that allows electricity or heat to flow through it easily, while a book is made of paper or other materials that do not conduct electricity or heat well.
Is a stick a conductor or a insulators?
An insulator for heat and (less so) for electricity. A conductor for sound and vibration.
Why birds doesn't get electricuted in landing on electric lines?
Well scientificlay said its becuse electricity flows through the least resisting conduent. In other words its easier to pass through the wire than through the bird , and its lazy :D
What is a material that transmits eletricity?
A material which conducts electricity is called a conductor
What does electricity not flow through well?
Plastic
Why does electricity flow through some things better than others?
Each material or compound has its own electrical properties that determine how well it conducts electricity. This has something to do with the free electrons in its chemical composition. But there are tables that rate every material from those that are good insulators(resist electrical current) and those that are good conductors of electricity.
Is a zinc a insulator?
No, Zinc is a conductor of electricity.
