What is the material that slows or stops the flow of energy such as heat?
Resistance does not 'slow down' current, it limits the current.The ability of a substance to slow down current is a function of the number of charge carriers per cubic metre of that material.
What slows the movement of electrons?
Insulators
Describe how an insulator can slow a transfer of energy?
Insulators can slow the energy transferred because since insulators make electric current pass slowly because of the insulator is a device to slow down the current
What is difference between electron current flow and conventional current flow?
There is no difference. The flow of electrons is current.
How does a resistor slow down the flow of change in a circuit?
It is made of a semiconductor that doesn't conduct electricity as well as the rest of the circuit. It dissiapates some of the electrical energy as the current flows through it.
How fast an electric current flow in a circuit?
the ability if a substance to slow down electric current
What causes current to flow in a circuit?
The flow of electrons or is it magnetic fieldsAnswerAn electric current is a drift of electric charge, due to a potential difference. In metal conductors, the electric charges involved are free electrons, but in conducting liquids and gases, they are ions (charged atoms). The drift is extremely slow, in the range of millimetres per hour.
Does eletricity flow fast or slow?
Compared to molasses, water in the olde mill stream, or traffic on the interstate highway, electric current flows very fast. Compared to the speed of light, in vacuum and in most material media, electric current flows slower.
What is the ability of a substance to oppose or slow down electric current?
Insulators typically slow the movement of electrons through an electric current. Bad conductors, such as rubber, can be used to slow, stop, and/or redirect electric current.CommentInsulators do not 'slow down', 'stop', or 'redirect' current! Simply put, insulators don't have enough charge carriers to support conduction.
What are insalatars?
Insulators [spelling] slow the flow of energy, either heat of electric.

What ability of a substance to slow down electric current?
Resistance & can be measured with ohmeter.

What is current how it is measured?
An electric current (symbol: I) is a very slow drift of charge carriers (electrons, in metallic conductors), and is measured in amperes (symbol: A). An ampere is defined in terms of the 'magnetic effect' of an electric current, that is the force of attraction or repulsion between two, parallel, conductors due to the interaction of their magnetic fields. An instrument used to measure electric current is called an 'ammeter'.

What is s device that interferes with the flow of an electrical charge?
You cannot 'slow' the flow of current in a wire. What you can do, however, is to reduce its value, or to limit its upper value. The device that will do this is a resistor. If, by your question, you are asking how to reduce the rate of change in its magnitude, then you can use an inductor.
