electric conductor They are called conductors of electricity. Electricity is the flow of charge. Solid conductors contain free electrons that carry the charge. Liquid conductors contain ions that carry the charge.
A conductor is an object or material that allows the flow of electrical current in one or more directions through the substance. For example, copper and aluminum are great conductors for positively charged particles.
These materials are termed good conductors (as opposed to semi-conductors which conduct poorly, and insulators such as wood which does not conduct at all). These conducting materials allow the flow of charge (conventional flow of current was thought to be the flow of protons, but now it is known that electrons are what flow). This flow of charge is termed current and is measured in Amperes.
The so called amount of current that flows is determined by the potential difference across the material and this potential difference can be considered the driving force for the electrons. This is termed the voltage.
CONDUCTOR
is the kind of material which lets heat and electricity pass through it
for example: copper,steel,iron,metal etc.
Note that "electricity" doesn't flow. Only current, which is one aspect of electricity, does.
Something that does not significantly oppose current would be called a conductor.
Answer to this question will be conductors and semi conductors.... An ideal conductor will offer no resistance ( 0 ohms), while a semi conductor will offer some resistance.. (It varies from material to material).
While insulators also allow some electricity to flow through them as no insulator is an ideal insulator. (by ideal, in this case, i mean infinite resistance.)
Note that "electricity" doesn't flow, only current does, which is one aspect of electricity, does. Current is the flow of electrons.
A 'conductor' is a material that electrons can flow through and an 'insulator' is a material that electrons cannot flow through.
Some examples of materials through which allow electricity can flow are gold, silver, copper and aluminum. They are called "conductors".
Any material that allows an electric current to flow through it is called a conductor.
An electric current is the name given to a flow of electrons.
An insulator is the description of a material that impedes or prevents the flow of an electric current.
Note that "electricity" doesn't flow, only current does, which is one aspect of electricity, does. Current is the flow of electrons.
Good conductors are metals, especially copper and aluminum. Silver is the best, but it would be pretty expensive to wire a house with silver wire.
Keep in mind that electricity does not necessarily flow, it is the current that flows. Current is also measures in amperes. As for the material that allow electricity to flow through them, they are known as conductors. There are several kinds of conductors, but typically, metals are the best conductors. Metals such as aluminum, copper, and silver are very good conductors.
A material that allows electricity to flow through it is classed as a conductive.

Conductors

Aluminum, Brass, Steel, Copper, Gold
Materials in which electrons can flow freely are called superconductors.

Conductors
A conductor easily Transmits heat and electricity. A conductor can include: Copper, some metals, metalloids, and more. ! - The Silver Fox.
Metallic conductors such as copper, aluminum, silver and gold are some examples of materials through which heat and electricity can easily flow.
They are called electrical conductors
Materials which usually prevent charges from flowing through a circuit. They can be forced to conduct electricity if the charges have enough energy, i.e. if the voltage is high enough. This is evident during a lightning storm when the air, normally a very good insulator, is turned into a conductor to allow the lightning bolt to travel through the air.
Conductors do, one example is copper.
Those are called insulators.
Materials in which charges do not easily move are called insulators or dielectrics.
Insulator
Materials that allow energy to flow easily through it are called conductors.
called an insulator
If something doesn't let electrical charges to flow through easily, it is called an electrical insulator.
Wood An insulator is a material that does not allow charges to move through it easily.
Materials that carry conductive characteristics. (i.e. Water, copper, and other various metals.)
