What else can I help you with?
Is a rubber an example of a conductor?
No, rubber is not a conductor. In fact it's quite a good insulator, though not suitable for long term use as it perishes in the outside weather.
Is rubber a conductor of electrical circuits?
Virtually every substance is a conductor of electrical current to a greater or lesser degree. We use the best ones to build extension cords and to connect electronic components to one another, and we use the worst ones as 'insulators'. Rubber is one of the worst ones.
Why doesn't rubber attract lightning?
Rubber is a poor conductor of electricity, so it does not attract lightning. Lightning seeks the path of least resistance to the ground, and rubber does not provide that path due to its insulating properties. This makes rubber a safer material to use in situations where there is a risk of lightning strikes.
Element that can be use as conductor?
Most metals.
Is a good insulater a good conductor?
No; an insulator by definition does not conduct electricity. We use these to protect ourselves from electricity, like the rubber in rubber gloves. Conductors, in contrast, are good...uh, conductors of electricity.
Which automotive tires use natural rubber?
Most tires made today use a combination of natural rubber and synthetic rubber to achieve the maximum tread life and safety rating.
Which resource I used in electric wiring?
For wiring, we only use copper and silver. The most common conductor is copper. Almost all wires use copper as a conductor.
Is copper ore pure enough to conduct electricity?
no, it needs to be purified using electrolysis for it to be pure enough to use as a conductor
Who contributed most directly to the widespread use of rubber in cars?
Charles Goodyear
What does a orchestra conductor use to lead?
An orchestra conductor uses a conducting baton.
What is the most common use for rubber tracks?
Rubber tracks are normally used for making new tires. You can find them used on many different websites.
Is a piece of string a good insulator or conductor?
A piece of string is a poor conductor of electricity due to its non-metallic composition. However, it is not a good insulator either, as it can still conduct static electricity and heat to some extent. If you need an insulator, it is better to use materials like rubber or plastic.
