What is an example of an insulator?
A2. Insulation is a process of separating one thing from another. Materials for this are called insulators. Commonly we may insulate against the transfer of Heat, Electricity, and Sound or vibration.An Electrical insulator could be glass. Or most plastics.A Heat insulator could be a vacuum, such as in a vacuum flask. Or a loose material such as fibreglass wool.A Sound insulator is normally something of massive properties, such as gypsum wallboard, or concrete.The plastic covering on wire is a perfect example of an insulator.
Is a toaster an example of a insulator?
an insulator.
Is a oven an example of an insulator?
Uh...No. And neither is a toaster. An insulator is something like cardboard or reflective foil, it keeps the heat in and the cold out :)

Which is an example of a good insulator?
it depends what type of insulator youre talking about. wood is a good thermal insulator and rubber is a good electrical insulator A perfect vacuum is the best insulator.
An example of a insulator?
An insulator has several different meanings. The two most common are an electrical insulator and a thermal insulator. an electrical insulator would be polyethylene. a thermal insulator would be wool.

Is copper an example of good electrical insulator?
yes copper is a good eletrical insulator
How are conductors and insulators different give an example of a conductor and an insulator?
conductors, such as metals, have free electrons, meaning their electrons are not strongly bonded to the atoms and a charge can move easily throughout the whole object, an insulator such as wood does not have free electrons so a charge is likely to stick in one area of the insulator.
An example of an electrical insulator is?
Rubber or plastic.
