It means that a lump of that substance has much more electrical 'resistance'
than a similar lump of a good conductor has. A relatively large electromotive
force (voltage) applied between two points on a lump of bad conductor will
produce only a relatively small electric current through it. As an example, a
little buzzer or light-bulb circuit could not work well with wires made of wood.
electricity! Because it is a non-metal
glass, ceramic,diamond, are somtricitytte of the conductor of hear but bad conductor of electricity meher n sethna
zinc is a good conductor of electricity
insulator
Not so bad; the electrical resistivity is 72 nΩ.m.
an insulator doesn't allows electricity pass from it, a bad conductor allows electricity to pass from it but not fully or completely and a semi conductor pass electricity in little form which used to operate electronics
see, the pencil's outer shield is made out of wood which is a bad conductor of electricity but the graphite core is a good conductor. thank you.
Not if you wish to be grammatically correct. You could say "plastic is a bad conductor of electricity," which would be an accurate statement.
Wood is a poor conductor(non-electrolyte) because it doesn't have free moving ions to conduct the electricity.
Because the molecules are NT active?
No. Metals are good electrical conductors.
insulator bcz its a bad conductor.....
