What are the seven properties of metal?
8 properties of metals: 1. Ductile 2. Malleable 3. Conduct electricity 4. Conduct heat 5. High melting point 6. High boiling point 7. Form basic oxides 8. Bond with non-metals to produce salts
Is a wire a conductor or an insulator?
Annealed Monel has a conductivity of only 3.4% that of annealed copper wire.Semiconductors have conductivities in the range 10^-6 to 10^5 S/m. Monel is about 20 times more conductive than the most conductive semiconductor. Therefore, Monel is a conductor. But, compared to good conductors like silver (63 MS/m), copper (57 MS/m), gold (45 MS/m), and aluminum (35 MS/m), Monel (2 MS/m) is not very highly conductive.In summary, Monel is a poor conductor, but a conductor none the less.
Give 5 example of insulators and conductors?
Conductors- which conduct electricity... Allow heat and electricity to pass through them.... Eg: metals like gold, silver, copper,etc. Insulators- which do not allow eletricity and eat to pass through them. Eg: glass and rubber - do not conduct electricity.
What are the similarities and differences between heat and temperature?
Heat is defined as the total kinetic energy of all the atoms and molecules that make up a substance.Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the individual atoms or molecules in a substance.
What is a good insulater?
Ill give you Three, Air (insulates very well against electricity and heat transfer) Glass (Similar to air only much more so) Ceramics (because of the number of empty spaces ie air, ceramics are extremely good as insulating against heat)
What is an 5 example of heat energy?
heat
How do you prove that iron is good conductor of heat?
Heat the end of a horizontal 12 inch long by half an inch diameter iron rod. Fix a thermometer at the other end. Take a temperature reading every 5 seconds.
5 good conductors of heat and what its used for?
cooper, gold, aluminum, silver and iron are 5 good conductors of heat. cooper is used in electric wire

Does rock transfer heat rapidly?
Depends on the type of rock. The thermal conductivity of most rocks range from 1 to 5 W/mK. (watt per meter kelvin) Compared to other things: Copper, a good conductor, its +-390 W/mK . PUR foam, a good insulator, its +-0,03 W/mK . So to answer your question: heat goes through rock, but not rapidly.
How was the crowd for the Miami Heat in game 5 of the nba finals?

Why mercury is preferred as a thermometric substance?
Reason1.The mercury is good conductor of heat and expand rapidly and thus the temp;change quickly. 2.Mercury has a low heat capacity3.The mercury is opeque to light and can been seen clearly4.The mercury does not stick with the wall of container.5.Mercury has a freezing point of -39c and boiling point of 357
An electric iron of resistance 20 ohms takes a current of 5A Calculate the heat developed in 30 seconds?
heat developed = 5*5*20*30 = 15000 joulesAnswerWith the information supplied, you can only determine the work done (W) by the circuit, not the heat (Q). To do so, you will need to know the mass (m) and specific heat capacity (C) of the conductor, and the temperature-difference between the conductor and its surroundings. The equation you need to do this is:W - Q = m C (Tf-Ti)With the information supplied, you can only calculate the work done: W = I2Rt.

Give 5 example of energy transformation?
refrigarator-electrical energy-light energy-heat energy
What will take in more heat R 5 insulation R 35 insulation?
Well, an R-5 will take in more heat because it is less than 35. Get it? Got it? Good.
Does lithium conduct electritcity?
It is classified as a "conductor", yes, but it isn't a very good one. It conducts electricity about 5 times worse than copper does.
